Yes, and I disliked it even then! I really liked that set, but when I got one of them, I was so disappointed that there was nothing on the other side...
Sometimes there just isn't a thread for them. What have been your off topic pony thoughts recently?I've noticed that for some G1 white ponies, the whites of their eyes aren't actually painted. So when they discolor, the white part of their eyes turns brown/yellow. I do not like the look.
Quote from: Safflower on March 27, 2020, 02:13:15 PMI have definitely noticed this... right after dying them midnight blue. Oh! Uh ... I guess you got some kind of eye condition there, huh Pony Bride? I don't think this is a particularly unique thought, but I always wonder, who are the mommies to all of the unique babies in the line? Baby Squirmy? Baby Wiggles? Who's mom!? I won't even get into the implications of having 15ish named male characters as the presumptive fathers, but it seems pretty obvious that newborns need mommies! Aww ... unless the "My Little Pony Mommy" commercial jingle is intended to be more literal! That's cute, in that case.
That's what I like about the unattatched baby ponies. You can make your own families with them.
I just realized that technically, Tirek from the TV animated special was a collector (and a customizer in a way, if you think about it).
I was watching My Little Pony Tales recently and I realized something. For a long time, I had found something strangely unsettling about the way the characters walked on their back legs, and it wasn't just about how unnatural that pose was for an equine, either. I couldn't quite put my finger on it, until it finally dawned on me. Just like in the previous G1 cartoon, the characters' hooves make a clippity-clop sound whenever they walk on hard surfaces. However, while it sounds completely natural when it's four hooves hitting the ground, it just doesn't sound right when you only hear two hooves from someone walking like a human being. You just don't hear something like that in nature, where horses and all the other hoofed animals are always quadrupeds. In fact, probably the only thing that makes this particular sound is devils in movies, since they're usually portrayed with hooves instead of human feet. It might sound weird, but it just makes perfect sense: whenever I heard a MLPT character walk on their back legs, I subconsciously associated the sounds their hooves made with someone with horns and a pitchfork!

They also walk on their hind legs. I know it’s a long shot, but it’s the only explanation I have. The Tales animation and the Takaras are the only bipedal ponies, for whatever reason. I’m not quite sure I like the Devil symbolism, but MLP does have a lot of religious elements to it already.
