A couple of new images of one of the Princess Cadence toys have popped up. It looks like they will be rolling with a giant sized one similar to the talking Celestia from a while back.
I still wonder what crazy geneology spawned this princess that keeps breaking all the rules, but I'm sure we will find out with the episode. Here's to hoping it's a "Bride goes CRAZY" one! Wouldn't THAT be interesting.

If we have a Pink Alicorn now, can Celestia finally be White?
VastaKustutaDEATH TO THE BLASPHEMER!!!
VastaKustutaI wonder if they pull a Celestia and she is actually a different color in the show
VastaKustutaI want to see Celestia and/or Luna get all Jelly over a new princess XD
VastaKustuta@Killsteal_Wolf
VastaKustutaAnd then Celestia was yellow.
I think Cadence is pinker than Celestia.
VastaKustutaI don't know what got into me, but that toy looks actually really good. I will definitely buy it, it reminds me a lot to the G2 pony toys.
VastaKustutaIt would be amazing if Cadence's reason for existence was to bring a white Celestia toy that doesn't spout mindless drivel.
VastaKustuta"Bride goes CRAZY" one!
VastaKustutalol I really wouldn't count on that, Seth.
As for genealogy, it's a kids show about talking ponies. Let's not try looking into this -too- deeply, shall we? ;)
I can't see most Bronies flocking to the stores for this one of course. Though I'm sure the little girls will like it. I do kinda like her sorta swept-back wing style. And her golden hoof guards are so shinnney~
I'm twelve and what is this?
VastaKustuta^not really^
But still WTF
I'm still hoping that Cadence is just a storybook character, or she lived thousands of years ago and is Celestia and Luna's mother.
VastaKustuta...probably going against popular opinion here but I think she is very pretty. :3
VastaKustutaBut they spelled her name wrong on the packaging!
we need white Celestia.
VastaKustutaIs it sad the first thing I thought was "What's her Cutie Mark?"
VastaKustutaUh, Cadance. We all spelt it wrong.
VastaKustutaOh look, it's pink Celestia with a different mane color, and a new crown to boot!
VastaKustutaWay to save up money on making toys Hasbro.
At least I hope that money goes towards the people making the actual show 'cuz they sure as hay deserve it more than however is designing this toys.
@ClutterCluster
VastaKustutaYou're right! "Cadance"?
IS it safe to assume that these are actually misproduced Celestia dolls?
VastaKustutaIs there a meme yet for Pulling a Celestia?
VastaKustutaI don't know why but it's sounds like it should be one
Magic/unspecified relative/friend/unknown dignitary.
VastaKustutaAt the very least she has a reason to be PINK
*cough cough*
@coolpowers
VastaKustutaOn the original wedding invitation thing that first showed her, her name was spelled "Cadence". Somepony has some 'splainin' to do...
@NoXogz
VastaKustutawhoever NOT however.
Derped for a moment there, sorry.
I hope they don't break something fundamentally in the show only because Hasbro wants to sell a new toy. D:
VastaKustutaRecently I'm not very happy with them anyway.
What are you guys, dictionaries?
VastaKustuta@MyBoyJ
VastaKustutaYeah, it was more a comment about Hasbro not really caring if the toys match the show :)
Pass
VastaKustutaI really like her mane... In fact, I rather like her in general.
VastaKustutaOk, but why does it say princess CadAnce?
VastaKustutashe is a little too pink but, like any good brony, i am goint to tolerate her... with fire and magnets!
VastaKustutaWhy the heck is she contrversial in any way again? Fanon needs to step back and breathe.
VastaKustutaIm just sayin right now, I cant wait for Princess Cadence i love her so much. And i think this toy is gorgous!!!
VastaKustutaBOX SAYS CADANCE!!!
VastaKustutaHer horn looks weirdly blunted.
VastaKustutaWow this looks really cool!
VastaKustuta*Looks at vector on box*
Hasbro,I am very disapointed in you.
First,you make Celestia white.
I guess that could have been a mistake.
But a new princess appears.
SAME BUCKING PROBLEM!
These princess toys suck.
Hey...Y U NO have large Luna toy?
Luna is best princess ya morons!
See!
VastaKustutaTHIS!
THIS RIGHT HERE!
Is why I feel sick whenever Cadence gets mentioned.
Mane looks like she lost a fight with a paint shaker machine. :P
@Altherix
VastaKustutaNever underestimate paint shaker machines.
Princess Cadence is actually alicorn Twilight. And she gets married to random one shot stallion.
VastaKustutaYou mad bronies?
I think her cutie mark might be those birds on the box... Like, wedding doves or something? Because apparently her special talent is getting married.
VastaKustutaThe more I see it, the more it makes sense...
VastaKustutaPhase out pink Celestia, introduce Cadence/Cadance, release white Celestia, since there's already a pink princess toy. New toys to buy, and the horrendous change that was forced because of retailers pushing pink for higher sales is circumvented, win/win.
A different color in the show? Hell, she's a different color -on the box art-
VastaKustuta@Shippoyasha
VastaKustutaUp to now, there have been only two Alicorns who are apparently immortal deity-like entities with control over major celestial bodies. It isn't presently clear how Cadence fits into this structure.
I have two theories. Either she is a fictional character from a storybook, or she lived thousands of years ago and is Celestia and Luna's mother.
Kate Middleton pony.
VastaKustutaI would love it when they added her so they could make Celestia white. But I hope this is her only purpose.
VastaKustutaI hope that, when she appears in the show, that the makers of it do a good job explaining everything. I wouldn't mind if she canonically appears somewhere in the past, before Celestia and Luna, or so. Or if she is just a character in a story in the show.
What Jaberwocky said. The box art is just a vector ripped from the show, so she'll be much lighter when we see her.
VastaKustutaHasbro: "Little girls respond better to pink."
Ghost: "Shove it up your ass."
where can i buy this?
VastaKustutaWhere's princess cadence? All I see is Trollestia.
VastaKustutaPrincess Cadence actually looks pretty quality in comparison to the other toys. Maybe Hasbro is starting to put more effort into them. Hopefully we can get a show accurate Celestia soon.
VastaKustutaThat'd be funny if Cadence was created to replace the Pinklestia, so Hasbro could experiment with selling a white Celestia but still keep the pink princess obsessed demographic. I guess only time will tell if that's the case. :3
@y2kyle89
VastaKustutaCadence... She's probably a percussionist. A bodhran cutiemark maybe? That would be awesome! Have a jam session with her down at the pub!
Or maybe a metronome cutiemark.
Is this character going to be in the show, or is she just a toy-release only?
VastaKustutaWHO IS THIS PONY
VastaKustutaAll praise to Princess Cadence, seeing her just makes me more excited for her episode even if it is just a one time thing
VastaKustutaAutor on selle kommentaari eemaldanud.
VastaKustutaI was almost expecting her to be white, just to mess with us.
VastaKustutaWell the wings are an improvement over Pinklestia at least....
VastaKustuta(Imma seriously hope this is all a Xanatos Gambit to get proper colored Celestia/Luna toys)
@y2kyle89 No, that was my first thought too.
VastaKustutaThey better turn Celestia white now, they can't have TWO pink princesses!
VastaKustutaShe looks like a recolor of Fleur de Lis or however you spell it.
VastaKustuta.... party wedding?
VastaKustutabride pony?
what
@Salzvatik12
VastaKustutaare you trying to make the mistake of underestimating Hasbro's ability to pink?
That being said I REALLY hope they change Celestia's toy color to white
I really hope now that they have an actual Pink princess, they will color Celestia white. But who am I to hope for that. :I
VastaKustutaIf they made a Luna toy she'd end up being lavender :|
VastaKustutaI for one welcome our new alicorn overlord.
VastaKustutaOh, and we need a Luna now.
VastaKustutaOooh, me likey.
VastaKustutaThe episode had better not suck. She's too pretty for her episode to suck.
@moolt
VastaKustutaFor those who don't know, Princess Cadence was first identified in this pic from a Hasbro expo.
http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-X6dsVC3yKFE/TuivfekTiLI/AAAAAAAAAIw/Tp2ypBbVgQU/s1600/2.JPG
"You're invited to the Royal Wedding of Princess Cadence and Shining Armor."
It's possible this may have been born out unsold and returned taking Celestia dolls. Hasbro has to have taken a hit from the amount of people who refused to buy a totally inaccurately coloured toy. Even on clearance.
VastaKustuta@Shadowluma
VastaKustutaShe will appear in the show at some point. Braeburn's VA tweeted a while back about recording for Shining Armor, her bridegroom.
Holy fuck, more recolors? Even with important characters? Jesus. Hasbro's really going for minimum cost, aren't they?
VastaKustutaNow I'm confused. I thought her cutie mark was a sun covered by a cloud, but it seems to be unknown yet, according to the wiki...
VastaKustutaMaybe I just saw it in a piece of fanart. :P
3 princesses now, eh? So celestia is sun, Luna is moon, cadence is earth? XD
VastaKustutaHasbro Exec 1: We need to do something! THe Princess Celestia toys aren't selling!
VastaKustutaHasbro Exec 2: I've got it! Let's make Princess Celestia white! Like in the show!
Hasbro Exec 1: Nahhh that's a stupid idea.
Hasbro Exec 2: But-
Hasbro Exec 1: I'VE GOT IT! Let's make a NEW princess toy! One that's already pink so they can't accuse us of being inaccurate!
Hasbro Exec 2: But there are only two Alicorns in the show, sir. Celestia and Luna.
Hasbro Exec 1: Hmmm, that IS a problem...
Hasbro Exec 2: Right, so how about we just-
Hasbro Exec 1: I KNOW! Tell the writers of the show to put her in somewhere, I'm sure it'll all work out.
Hasbro Exec 2: But sir, Celestia and Luna work so well on their own. They have an excellent balance representing the sun and moon, and carry an air of mystery that makes their mythology and characters all the more attractive and interesting. Won't adding a third princess intrude upon that balance, risk breaking the mystery, and just be an all around nonsensical addition because it would make no sense for everybody in the show to have just outright forgotten about a third godlike princess for 52 episodes? And wouldn't introducing a freaking GODDESS as just a throwaway character be an insult to our viewers' intelligence? And not only that, does this not suggest something along the lines of "unless you have wings and a horn you can never be a princess in Equestria," thereby basically taking a shot at young girls' self esteem? Does this not risk causing the show to jump the shark, sir?
Hasbro Exec 1: Ahhhh, who cares? Nobody watches this show but three year old girls anyway. Now, here's what the new princess is going to look like!
Hasbro Exec 2: ...sir, that color scheme is incredibly garish. It looks like a shoddy recoloring of Princess Celestia.
Hasbro Exec 1: I KNOW, RIGHT? This way we get to make money, AND we don't have to go through any stress trying to come up with a decent original design! We've got one already made for us!
Hasbro Exec 2: But sir-
Hasbro Exec 1: And you know what would be a good name for her? Cadence!
Hasbro Exec 2: ...Rhythm and song? Sir, doesn't that mess up the heavenly body motif we've had with Celestia and Luna? What about Astra? Or Gaia?
Hasbro Exec 1: You know, you're being incredibly counterproductive here with your Debbie Downer attitude, son. Why don't you go get me some coffee?
Hasbro Exec 2: But-
Hasbro Exec 1: Ahhhh, I'm a genius. Now! Time to cancel that line of Transformers Prime toys!
I am not happy about this princess,I prbbly wouldn't even mind so much, bunch its just that 'Cadence' Is both a terrible princess and pony name! It doesn't fit in with the show at all!
VastaKustuta3 princesses now, eh? So celestia is sun, Luna is moon, cadence is earth? XD
VastaKustutaWell don't i just look pretty ^^ Now if they could just turn Celestia white... Otherwise she looks like my sister.. And afaik we are not... <_< >_>
VastaKustutaUgh, I'm sorry, but that color combination is just hideous. I swear Hasbro has chosen the worst possible shades of pinks for their toys. Not to mention that there is just too much pink in general.
VastaKustutaNot every little girl froths at the mouth at the sight of pink. My very first MLP (and I'm dating myself here) was MINTY, the green and white one. I thought she was the best looking of the original half dozen or so they created. I've noticed that the color green is conspicuously absent from any pony in MLP:FIM, even among background ponies.
Twilight Sparkle's end-of-series transformation?
VastaKustuta*shot*
@Seashell Sorbet
VastaKustutaI personally think this may be the case. I'll admit I may be misinformed, but I've seen no evidence that she'll be in the show, and it would be a good excuse to finally get them to sell the proper colored Celestia, while still keeping a pink princess on the market.
@A guy who likes ponies
VastaKustutaBraeburn's VA has confirmed he is voicing Shining Armor, her groom.
@Seashell Sorbet
VastaKustuta"More effort" ? It's a Pinklestia with different clothing. Less effort imo.
It would be nice if she were a princess of another land, perhaps the ancient pony homeland before the founding of Equestria. This eliminates the "why have we never seen her before" problem.
VastaKustuta@Joe
VastaKustutaConsidering they actually put effort into painting her accessories/shoes and bothered to give her a dress similar to the one on the package art as opposed to one of those golden organza travesties that they used for the older toys, I'd call this a step forward. A small step, but a step none the less.
@Gamerlord
VastaKustutaThat does prove Shining Armor is in the show, and I know that, but that doesn't prove that She's in it too. It's possible to assume that she may be in the show because he is, but there's no real hard evidence to support it, and until there is I shall remain a skeptical hippo... er... pony?
the funny part is that Cadence is also the wrong color, she doesnt match the image on the box, so... yea
VastaKustutaI predict that Cadence is Twilight god-ified.
VastaKustutaCadence and Shining Armor's wedding might also be the perfect opportunity for a new villain to make the scene. Great way to start a villainous reputation would be to crash a party like that.
VastaKustuta@Arcticwlf Hopefully the villain kidnaps Cadence, locks her in a box, throws the box in the bottomless pit of despair.
VastaKustutaOne can dream right?
Unless they can pull of something freaking amazing, I'm just going to completely ignore the existence of her.
VastaKustutaThat or my head canon is something killed her off.
"Oh, she got ambushed by a Griffin scouting party. Stung her up and used her for food supplies."
"Oh dear, does this mean war?"
"Wellllll... it wouldddd..... but no one gave a shit about the ditzy twit. We're sending a gift basket. Wine too."
She doesn't look that bad. She could be ALOT worse... I'd buy it.
VastaKustutaShe even looks annoyed on the box. The drawn version looks like she's eying her figure, "That does not look like me!"
VastaKustutaI just noticed the box says "Princess CADANCE"...
VastaKustutaapparently Hasbro can't spell.
@Shippoyasha
VastaKustutaBecause unlike all the characters we know and love, "Cadance" was obviously invented via cynical marketing department committee, as a way to cash-in on that wack-ass royal wedding, not to mention that ol' sexist patriarchal social pressure that A WOMAN *HAS* TO GET MARRIED OR ELSE.
Studio B will lessen the pain as much as possible but they'll still be sculpting with SHIT at the end of the day.
In Studio B We Trust.

Silence, Wo-Man. We know what your kind wants. PINK AND FRILLY ALL THE FEMALE THINGS!!
@Rainbow Smash
VastaKustuta*applause*
Hey, maybe Cadence is like Benten, a goddess of all flowing things, like music and the wind and the sea. :)
VastaKustutaI mean, "Cadance."
VastaKustutaI get to watch Hasbro half-ass their toys in hilarious ways AND watch bronies lose their marbles over it. The fun has been doubled!

VastaKustutaca·dence

2. The measure or beat of movement, as in dancing or marching.
Sounds fine for a pony name to me.
Ok,i think everyone is overreacting,because we have no idea about her character at ALL aside from toys and pictures and yet we are still saying "BECAUSE OF THIS THE SHOW WILL JUMP THE SHARK"seriously,best to wait until she appears in the show instead of jumping to conclusions.
VastaKustuta@Charlotte She'll be the EVIL princess from the Negaverse! Or a Cyborg alien pony planning an invasion! Or a mutant turtle! :D
VastaKustuta@Rainbow Smash
VastaKustuta*Slow clap*
Besides,DHX Media(Studio B)has dealt with exec meddling(Cheerilee,calling celestia and luna princesses instead of queens).
VastaKustuta@Rainbow Smash
VastaKustutaThat was brilliant. XD
Hit the nail on the head with that one. I tip my hat to you, friend.
Great, now make Celestia white *serious face*
VastaKustutaAnd even Candence is light pink, does hasbro have some issue with making ponies white or light colored at all. We're lucky rarity wasnt made pink.
But at least pink matches Candence ^^
.....Prince William and Princess Kate.
VastaKustuta.....Shining Armor and Princess Cadence.
.....Wedding Castle.....
I see what they did there ^_^. I find this cool if you ask me.
But all the color complaints aside
VastaKustutaI really like her mane!
I have a theory:
VastaKustutaCadence and Shining Armor are coming back to Equestria and they claim to be Equestria's rightful rulers, and so they might force Celestia and Luna to leave after gaining many of the ponies's trust.
I don't get all the hate. We know nothing about her, and people are saying that it ruins the show (Translation: Their more than likely horribly based fanfic)and that it was shoehorned in by evil marketing executives, then somehow connecting to the pink Princess Celestia thing. I wonder if the same thing would be said if Cadence was a different color.
VastaKustutaAnyways, my hope is that she is directly related to Luna and Celestia, but she is younger than them, and doesn't have any major power, but is an advisor or something, hence why we haven't seen her yet.
Maybe Cadence' cutie mark stands for the fact that she rules over all sounds in Equestria? That combined with being an bossy bride and the royal Equestrian voice would make her an awesome obstacle for the mane six and the other princesses xD
VastaKustutaWell, at least she's SUPPOSED to be pink.
VastaKustuta@Flyinpenguin117 I agree with you 100%
VastaKustutaAnyone else catch this? http://clubpenguin.wikia.com/wiki/Cadence
VastaKustutaI have an obsession with Princess Cadence, I'll admit. Thats probably why I hate haters as much as I do. I have her set as my avatar on the Battlelog. The only thing keeping me from doing the same here is the fact that I don't wanna change my current one.
Aha! Those wings are clear! She's a fake! FAKE!
VastaKustutawonder when were gonna see 'er cutie mark?
VastaKustutaUh, pardon my ignorance, but who exactly is "Princess Cadence"...?
VastaKustutaThis might be the epic season 3 opening.
VastaKustuta@Travis Smith
VastaKustutaKind of doubting it. If you look at the Princess Celestia toys, she's white on the package even though the toy is pink. Cadence is pink on the package so I imagine she looks that way in the show. But you never know.
Oooh, that toy is really pretty! I wonder if she'll appear in the show?
VastaKustuta@Rick Neil
VastaKustutaShe's a pink Alicorn character that showed up along with a male unicorn (her love interest) named Shining Armor. No word yet to whether or not she'll appear in the show. Won't be surprised if she does, according to Lauren Faust, Hasbro would sometimes ask them to incorporate a character from the toy line into the show, and it seems like they'll want to hype up Cadence.
I'm wondering if there will be a episode with some definitive information about the Royal Genealogy. Making Blue Blue a prince was bad enough(I'd have preferred he was still a Duke) but, where is Cadence from? Note: I'm not hating on her, It is just confusing for another Princess who has never been mentioned before to be introduced. I'm gonna assume that she is not as powerful as Celestia or Luna.
VastaKustutaHasbro is so retarded. When are they gonna realize that it isn't about the toys anymore. It should be the show deciding what the toys are like instead of the toys deciding what the show's like.
VastaKustuta@Kelleth, cadence is when a chord progression changes or reinforces the mood of a piece of music. I wonder if the toy team noticed the irony when they made her; it sounds like Hasbro is changing the mood of the series, which made Rob leave.
VastaKustutaI wonder of all the princes are unicorns and the princesses are alicorns, sorta like bees. (All the princes are layabout dunces, like drone bees, but marrying one would have turned Rarity into an alicorn.)
Will people ever shut up about non-existent "balance" which Cadence supposedly upsets? It gets old you know. It was never stated in the show that two princesses were ONLY princesses.
VastaKustutaJust give this girl justified place in the world and she's good to go.
But more importantly, WHERE THE FUCK IS CELESTIA-CENTERED EPISODE?! Honestly, Luna got one outta nowhere, but the important side-character(who has yet to have any good characterization) is denied single episode for almost two fucking seasons. Writers, get your shit straight.
People seem to put waaaaaay too much thought in this.
VastaKustuta@Starlight
VastaKustutaactually i believe shining armour is just a unicorn.
@Glowy Pie
VastaKustuta*Facepalm*
Hasbro is a toy company. They make and sell toys. They own My Little Pony and can do whatever the hay they want with it. It is only by their good graces that the show we love exists -- without the toys, there'd be no show. I think it's pretty damned presumptuous to call Hasbro retarded for not changing their (evidently rather successful) business model to cater to the whims of an unexpected periphery demographic. In other words: no, Hasbro is not retarded; yes, it is about the toys; and what "it should be" is whatever Hasbro decides it should be, because it belongs to them.
If Hasbro were to make show-accurate toys for us, that'd be incredibly awesome of them, but it would only be the icing on the cake; the cake itself is pretty damn sweet to begin with. Be grateful for it. Enjoy the show, enjoy the fandom's creations, and be glad that Hasbro hasn't decided to stomp those creations into oblivion, because it is within their power and their rights to do so.
@Epesi
VastaKustuta>If Hasbro were to make show-accurate toys for us
>If
And then it really happened. I have never been so happy to have my point rendered utterly moot. :D
Cake, meet icing. Icing, meet cake. Hasbro, meet my undying love. I think we're all gonna be great friends.
they should have a big version of princess luna too!
VastaKustutathey should have a big version of princess luna too!
