Apparently Derpy Hooves isn't the only interesting thing buried in that Castle Creator game. This is a Luna someone found while plugging in random variables. Their theory was that this the Luna from Rarity's axed makeover scene, but she is lacking the wavy hair. Maybe it's from another episode? Who knows! This game is suddenly beyond intriguing. Go my minions, delve into its secrets!
And the original URL.
Thanks to FennecusKitsune for the discovery!

VastaKustutaTHE PINK IS SPREADING!
VastaKustutaPinkie and Luna must have done the fusion dance! We're all doomed! Royal Canterlot Voice powerful enough to BREAK THE FOURTH WALL!
VastaKustutaI liker her...mane?
VastaKustutaWAAAAAAAAAAAAT
VastaKustutaWhat have you done to Luna?!
VastaKustutaSo frilly...
Can't unsee...!
Wow, apparently everyone else is asleep.
VastaKustutaSilly humans, I don't sleep!
Anyway, just to be the big asshole everyone hates for a day, first.
I bet this is a totally intentional leak to prepare the market for the upcoming release of Pinkluna, colored to match everyone's favorite Pinklestia toys.
VastaKustutaUmm, cool? I'm not sure what to think of this now frufru, pink Luna.
VastaKustutaOMG
VastaKustutaIf this is canon then were doomed!
There, now Celestia won't be the only one who ends up Pink. xD
VastaKustutaOH NO LUNA ATE A PINK PRINCESS!! EVERYPONY RUN!!
VastaKustutaYes that is indeed the design that was intended for the makeover scene in Luna Eclipsed that was cut.
VastaKustutaO__O?
VastaKustuta@Sketchonion Sweet, we've got a Studio B animator amongst us!
VastaKustuta@Jelfes and Sketchonion Yay
VastaKustutaWoah thats interesting! :)
VastaKustutaMaybe we can feed the flux capacitor into itself and then feed that into the website. \_._._/
VastaKustutaONWARDS!
Why are people freaking out about this? THIS IS FREAKING ADORABLE! The, uh, hair coming out of the head bow is a little over the top, though.
VastaKustutaOr maybe... just hear me out on this... it's simply a random cute outfit that someone threw into the random generator. lol I know, I know. Not as fun to pick at. :P
VastaKustutaAww, come on guys. It's adorable, right? :3
My Little Equestria Daily: Hacking is Friendship?
VastaKustutaHeh, this feels like messing around on the title screen of a DVD, looking for Easter Eggs.
Look at Sketchonion's profile. Also look at what they said. It is fact, not fiction.
VastaKustutaYeah the wavy hair was added pretty late (there are a couple places you can see the old hair still, such as when she says "how many points do I recieve?") so this being her makeover seems extremely likely.
VastaKustutaBut, I like Luna!
VastaKustutaHonestly with all the hearts and pink? They need to bring out this Luna for a Valentine's day episode. Because she is very, very cute in that get up. I'm guessing Rarity went just a teeny tiny little bit (read: crazily) overboard on the blush.
VastaKustutaIn before a pink luna toy comes out.
VastaKustutaI'm quite ok with this. She looks adorable.
VastaKustutaEven cooler to have one of the show's artists confirm it.
Hmm, wonder how long before pink Luna pops up in drawfriends?
AND a Royal Batguard! The fun has been doubled!
VastaKustutaLuna: - What is THIS?
VastaKustutaRarity: - BUt your Highness, I think it suits you. It makes you more ... aproachable!
Luna: - It makes me PINK!
this is almost certainly Rarity's makeover.
VastaKustutaOh wow, I'm pretty impressed they got into the source. I'm trying to get to the Sweetie Belle SWF, but keep failing...
VastaKustuta0_0... way too much pink. lol.
VastaKustutawow pink luna is nice. But we need pink WUNA! (someone make, im waiting for next drawfriend)
VastaKustutaFor you lazies:
VastaKustutahttp://www.mediafire.com/?6lcva7nzzcma7gf
I've solved it.
VastaKustutaIt's the 3rd Princess and Royal Sister.
The one Celestia strangled during a argument.
Luna saw everything, but Celestia carried her back to bed and managed to convince her that she just had a bad dream. ^_^
The horror. The horror!
VastaKustutaSo, who else is hoping the Rarity/Luna scene is included when a season 2 DVD is released and a creator commentary for that matter? I'm quite curious what she did to turn Luna into... that. o_O
VastaKustuta(Note: No, I don't think it's bad, I'm just... I'm overly curious how she took Luna's enchanted hair and turned it both pink -and- "normal". I'm also quite curious if it was designed before they decided to give Luna enchanted wavy hair like Celestia. It looks a lot like the hair she had when first separated from Nightmare Moon.)
Nightmare Moon ate Pinkie Pie.
VastaKustutaHi everybody, FennecusKitsune here:
VastaKustuta(This is like my second try ever posting a reply to Blogger, so forgive me if I'm doing this stupidly... trying to go via my AIM account... there isn't much info I can find on how to do this properly)
I found this completely by accident. I partially misread the earlier post about Castle Creator, and somehow missed the link to the actual game itself. I clicked on the Derpy link though, and simply changed the name to Luna, since it was the first pony to come to mind after reading the mention of the CMC and Luna. So literally the first thing I found was a total hidden surprise.
After breaking out of the awesome pink-Luna-induced stupor, I loaded the game itself, and tracked the activity of all the resources it loaded via Safari's Activity window. I saw all of the other ponies it loads, but didn't I see attempt to load this file, so I rather doubt that it's in the game itself, though I could be wrong, as it might try to load it after the fact at some point. (Fun-fact: you can download individual assets by option-double-clicking them in this Activity window.)
I figured it had to be Rarity's outfit for Luna after Lauren Faust mentioning the scene, and because the naming scheme for all the halloween outfits were of the form MLP_CharH_.swf (where could be a name or abbreviation, like AJ, RD, Sweetiebelle, or Derpy). Other character art follows the same scheme without the H in the title, so MLP_Char_.swf shows other artwork for many characters. Oddly though, I don't recall ever seeing this version of Rarity MLP_Char_RA_03.swf. Perhaps even more oddly, out of the Cutie Mark Crusaders, why would they only post Sweetie Belle's halloween outfit and not the others?
It really beats me if there's anything else crazy up there, since directory listing is not allowed for this server, and the main swf only requests so much during the initial load. It may be worth poking around it a further to see if there are actually any easter eggs in the flash though.
Anyway, wow, Luna is so pink. I would have loved to see this actually happen in the episode if it were longer.
YOU SAID ITS BAD. YOU INSULTED LADY RARITY'S HONOR. PREPARE TO DIE. ಠ_ಠ
VastaKustutaalso: Luna's hair - a wizard did it
@fad38f80-f963-11e0-97cc-000bcdcb8a73
VastaKustutaDid you find the Hidden Palace Zone?
What about Genocide City?
(Sonic 2 Beta jokes, ohhhh yeaaaah *shades*)
Wrong palette? I must get my head off from SEGA Genesis...
VastaKustutaOh my...I must admit the more I see of the ponies outside of the show, the less I like what I see :/
VastaKustutaEvery toy/image is completely wrong! How the hay do they keep messing this up!? *Facehoof*
@mycutiemarkisagun
VastaKustutaThere were so many rumors surrounding the Hidden Palace Zone level back in the day... It's surprising how complete the level was given that they ultimately removed it in the end. Genocide city however... I don't even know why they bothered making the level selectable from the beta debug menu.
It it weren't nearly 3AM, I'd be looking through these swf files more closely to see if there was anything odd about 'em. I will say however that these asset swfs are pretty remarkable when loaded into a copy of Flash if you have one.
I think that they changed her hair in the last moment, if you watch the episode again you'll find several scenes where she still has part of her old hair.
VastaKustuta@Sketchonion
VastaKustutaYou mean the dress right? Because I can't imagine Rarity somehow reverting her ethereal hair to opaque mode and dying her coat pink.
I've sat here for the last hour tearing apart the game with decompilers but can't find the secret images. My hat is off to the clever brony who discovered this!
VastaKustutaIf anyone's curious though, there's a config file at http://www.hubworld.com/hubworld/flash/games/GAME_C_MLPCASTLE/config.xml which contains links to the swf files for all the vectorized art.
Just pop http://www.hubworld.com/hubworld/flash/games/GAME_C_MLPCASTLE/ in front of all the urls starting with "assetsuitcase/"
@Viethra
VastaKustutaI can imagine her using a wig though.
What... I...
VastaKustuta☾ WE DO NOT BEAR THE COLOR OF PINK ☽
☾ WHAT TRICKERY IS THIS? ☽
☾ OUR MANE HAS BEEN RENDERED POWERLESS... and... pink? ☽
Mmm... my... my coat.... tail... Oh what has happened?
Why?
-sob-
The concept art and even the asset creation for "Rarified Luna" would have to be done long before things got to the animation stage. So really, depending on the point at which the sequence was cut and the point at which the new hair was decided on, it's not surprising to see that this artwork exists.
VastaKustutaVery cool to see, definitely!
Makes me wonder if we might see Luna in this costume in a future episode anyway. Such a hilarious image should not be wasted.
VastaKustutaSince no one else has said it yet, i'm going to.
VastaKustutaPink luna is best luna.
I imagine that when developers of the show like Sisby see posts like this, they break out in evil laughter like this http://iambrony.jsmart.web.id/gif/files/131757919842.gif because they know and we don't
VastaKustutaI like Pink Luna, but this is probably the mental image 90% of people think of when you say to someone you like MLP:FiM. Pretty pink pony in a puffy petticoat.
VastaKustutaOH A pink Luna... hmmm...
VastaKustutaAll Ponies have a copy of themselves somewhere that's different colors. ALL PONIES!
VastaKustutaOk... here's hoping that this is from some episode where the plot lampshades the whole "pink princess' stereotype, maybe even taking a shot at pink Celestia. One can hope...
VastaKustutaMinus the ribbons she actually looks good in pink.
VastaKustutaLUNA: THIS DRESS IS MARVELLOUS. *wears* HOW DOTH I LOOK?
VastaKustutaRarity: Well, I appreciate your input, but I must say, on you, pink and blue does not go. I'msorrypleasedon'tbanishme!
LUNA: IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN SO, SADLY. WE HAVE A SOLUTION - PINKIFICUS TOTALUS! *casts*
Rarity: Oh my...
D'awww
VastaKustuta"Sister, wouldst thou likest to witness us freak everypony right the hell out?" *PINK!*
VastaKustutaOh, that castle creator is great! I can make rows and rows of Lunas like they're in a Robert Palmer video. Eee.
VastaKustuta@fad38f80-f963-11e0-97cc-000bcdcb8a73
VastaKustutaUsing your pointers, I found Twilight Sparkle dressed as Starswirl The Bearded. *yay* She's really cute.
@Mystfit
VastaKustutaI like that the list you provided confirms the "Lord of the Rings" reference in the Nightmare Night episode:
http://www.hubworld.com/hubworld/flash/games/GAME_C_MLPCASTLE/assetsuitcase/props/MLP_PropH_SauronBalloon.swf
OH NO! Nightmare Moon ate a princess!
VastaKustutaIt's the bows that do it for me. One fore and one aft. Arrrrr!
VastaKustuta@fad38f80-f963-11e0-97cc-000bcdcb8a73That Rarity you are talking about is the improvised dress and hair that Rarity made to "fight" Trixie with in Boast Busters.
VastaKustuta@Mystfit
VastaKustutaAwesome find with the config file. It still doesn't list that hidden Luna image though. Did you check all the supporting swfs when you decompiled too?
My guess is that they had the game set up and ready to go for a while, and simply switched the config file when it was ready to go live. Probably at the last moment, they decided to pull the dressed up Luna from the game since it wasn't used in the episode, so they simply excluded the image from the config file, instead of removing it from the server completely. Finding it was a fluke, but I still wonder if there are other images up there hidden away.
@LcplBronyUSMC
Ah, you're totally right, good catch. I don't know how I missed that. I suppose it's been a while since I've seen that episode.
THE PINK HAS BEEN DOUBLED
VastaKustutaTHIRD ALICORN DETECTED!!
VastaKustutathe entire cosmology of equestria may be turned on its head :/
@fad38f80-f963-11e0-97cc-000bcdcb8a73no problemo!
VastaKustutashe's so...pink
VastaKustutaOh, I think my brain has gone boink from the pink. Not bad, just a little teensy bit . . . OVERLOAD OF FRUFRU!
VastaKustutai love the pink Luna
VastaKustutaand suddenly i see her dancing to this....maybe its those...mmm...BOWS!!!!
VastaKustutahttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=01tBMDkNpVg
Thats how Luna was up to look when Rarity make her a costume?
VastaKustuta"QUICK SPIKE!Let's go before she dies my mane a different COLOR!"
VastaKustutaPoor Luna...the Royal Pink got to her.
Autor on selle kommentaari eemaldanud.
VastaKustutaGiven her makeover look I wonder if the way Luna was supposed to remove the costume was to do the classic "cartoon character rips off their entire outfit in one fluid motion, revealing an entirely different set of clothes (and often hair style) underneath." (I wish I had a video example) But as Lauren said part of it gets stuck in her teeth, Pinkie walks in, hilarity ensues.
VastaKustutaA pink Luna what the HELL, no one wants a Pink Luna its Celestia who is white not God Damn PINK.
VastaKustutaThank Celestia that didnt happen...
VastaKustutaPrincess Cadence!
VastaKustutaOooo make a bonus episode with her and rarity scene! PLEASE?
