    Seth may be the number one Trixie fanboy, but it doesn't mean others can't appreciate her as well. Then again, knowing this fandom every single character no matter how big or small has their own group of fans. Says something about the quality and malleability of these characters if we can do all that, right?

    Anyhow, time for the news guys. Check it out after the break.

    Awesome Pony Graffiti


    The story behind this really cool piece of art!

    Hi! I'm Shinoda (shinodage.deviantart.com),  I've painted Vinyl Scratch and Octavia graffiti in Trelew, Chubut, Argentina, with two of the best Graffiti Artists of my city.
    Apart from that photo, I've created an album on my new Facebook page with lots of photos of the step by step http://www.facebook.com/EquestrianUrbanArtKrew , and I've made a video too! http://youtu.be/rGmqo5Ie138

    Pony Pillow Project Needs Help

    Mind you, the photo included is of prototypes and NOT the finished product

    A pony project looking to raise enough money to start production of cute pony pillows is currently a little short of their goal on Kickstarter and could use the help finishing their push for some startup money. Check the details and the prototype picture below.

    There are only five days left to the Pony Pillow Project and we are still a bit short of our $750 goal.

    What we hope to do is make a type of plushy that is both high quality and affordable for more people. Not just of the mane six, but of all of our favorites. If we manage to exceed our goal there is even the possibility of creating a "Pony Creator" style customization system that will allow for people to have their very own OC to be made into a pillow plush for an affordable price.


    Plushies ordered through the kickstarter are a low, low price of $36 and that includes shipping and handling to US buyers!

    There are also t-shirts, cutie mark ties, and digital art commissions as rewards.

    Pony Fan At Avon UK Product Marketing?


    Considering ponies are popping up everywhere for quite some time now, it isn't surprising that an eyeliner called Twilight Sparkle at Avon could be a subtle reference to pony. Could always be a coincidence, but you never know nowadays!
