Moving as this is more a show discussion-type topic. It's unlikely that Starlight will be alicorinated any time soon. The whole reason Starlight was added to the regular cast was to fill the story-niche that Twilight left empty when she was alicorinated. Unless it's a dictate from Hasbro, the writers would be rather silly to put themselves in that corner again.

Moving this to 'Merchandise', as that seems more appropriate, I think. As for getting plushies, it depends on where you are. In my area some Safeway grocery stores have small TY/Beanie Baby MLP plushies in a rotating rack mixed in with other Beanie Babies. And Rite Aid drug stores, for that matter. The Rite Aid even has a broader selection as the Safeway's tend to only have the Mane6, while the Rite Aid also has Celestia, Luna, and Cadance.

The animals were called 'buffalo' in the US over a hundred years before they were renamed 'bison' to keep them distinct from the African/Asian buffalo. There's a reason there's a score of places in the States called 'Buffalo', but none that I know of named 'Bison'. There's a lot of animals in North America that got named 'wrong' because the people naming things didn't know or didn't care about 'proper' taxonomy. The American Robin, for example, is actually part of the thrush family while the European Robin is a flycatcher. The American Buzzard is part of the condor family, while the European Buzzard is a large family of birds closely related to eagles and hawks. Both are also called Vultures as well.

This was requested: an official thread for sharing your tips and tricks for cleaning, repairing, and other maintenance on your Pony Merch. Please be as specific as possible with your advice, as toys and figures might be made of different types of plastic or materials depending on lots of things like year of manufacture and the like, leading to them reacting quite oddly to various chemical cleaners. The last thing we want is to accidentally melt someone’s vintage figure.

Interesting thought. I hadn't drawn the connection between them, as I'm not quite as familiar with the toy line as I was with the various cartoons. I hope we do see the Saddle Arabians again. But then I also hope to eventually find out where Maretopia and Mustangia are as well... I wouldn't mind a season of 'World Tour' adventures.

Because of the question, this didn't seem like a Welcome Topic so much as a discussion topic. So moving it.

Seems to be more about the series than the film.

Moved as this really isn't a 'Past Generations' topic.
