My Little Pony 'n Friends: The Great Rainbow Caper (G1 TV episode, 1986, 10 minutes)

The first stand-alone TV episode. Not much else to say here.

Summary: This Gizmonks want the Rainbow of Light. Megan and company have to trick the creatures into letting them all go.

Here's the rainbow of light, doing weather work.

Don't screw with artifacts, it's rarely a good idea.

Buh? Who the heck has a closed-circut TV system in this setting?

Monkeys. Gizmonks to be precise. So this is where Catrina and others were getting their gear.

Gonk and Glouda the Great, ooookay.

Lesser crested snigglebacker?

Drudge, a very large talking gopher. The scale of creatures in this setting is all messed up in general. Sometimes these things are scaled the same as in the real-world, something they're way bigger, and there's no pattern.

Gizmonks have force-field technology.

Nope, it's actually just a huge glass dome. That makes more sense.

Kids being kids, sometimes useful.

Uh, a horse-tank. Interesting.
