Yes!  All that is Rarity is good!  And I wouldn't break her wings, if you did that, it would be more cost-effective to simply buy her in her regular pose.  She is the only Glimmer Wing I bought because she actually had those wings in that one episode.  Rainbow Dash with Glimmer Wings just seems very odd to me.

Fluttershy and Daisy Dreams with the wings also makes no sense to me, but it's cute. As for RD, it's just really out of character.
I do love Ploomette though.

Fluttershy came in Glimmer Wing?  I've never seen that at any stores here!  That is strange...I can understand Ploomette, but it just seems odd to throw on Glimmer Wings on any and all pegasus...why not have a line with just Glimmers, like the G1 Wingers?

Cadence (according to wiki) means "music" ...

See, this is my OCD on words, and why I NEVER trust Wiki. Cadence actually does *not* mean melody or music. The proper dictionary definitionn of Cadence, according to Webster's Dictionary is:


Cadence (noun)
1. a. A rythmic sequence or flow of sounds in language.
    b. The beat, time, or measure of rythmical motion or activity.
2. a. A falling inflection of the voice.
    b. A concluding and usually falling strain; specifically: a musical chord sequence moving to a harmonic close or point of rest and giving the sense of harmonic completion.
3. The modulated and rythmic recurrance of a sound, especially in nature.
Example of use: The cadence of the drums keeps the soldiers moving in time.


Sorry, Journalism major here...the proper usage of words was drilled into our skulls, as retractions and the embarrassment of your publication was always something that was considered professional death So there you go, your vocabulary lesson and warning away from Wikipedia for the day

I was wondering where people were getting "music."  In the equestrian world, the word "cadence" is used when a horse is carrying itself in a well-contained, even-paced way.  According to localriding.com, "Cadence is shown in the trot and canter and is the result of the proper harmony that a horse shows when it moves with well marked regularity, impulsion and balance."  That's why I thought Princess Cadence would have something to do with dance.

I'm waiting for my G3 Fluttershy.  I hate waiting!

Congrats!  Those plushies are too cute!!!

I honestly haven't had any trouble with people making fun of me or anything like that.  My friends all collect something, from Star Wars toys, to Tinker Bell, to stuffed animals, so I am in good company.

I did get my brother to like FiM though.  He didn't feel either way about ponies, they weren't his thing, but I was watching an episode one day, and he came to see what I was doing.  He ended up sitting down with me and watching it!  He isn't an avid fan or anything, but he does love Fluttershy.  He'll watch it on occasion with me.

So I would say, if you are trying to get your friends to try FiM, I would suggest to them to watch an episode.  If they try it, great!  If not, I wouldn't push it on them, because everyone has different tastes, and there's no reason to force your likes on them.  But most everyone I know who has watched an episode likes it. 

I love love LOVE her hair!  Just great work, I'm sure she will be loved!

Oh she's lovely!  This is a 3.5 that I can say I absolutely adore!  And I never thought I would say that!
