And it's soo awesome! (OwO) It was expensive as hell though... A few hundred. The artist apparently had been commissioned for it but the person who wanted the pony bailed. The artist was halfway done with it so he finished it anyways. I promise you, this is the only google chrome pony plushie around :3 Note the yellow stick in the background is a 1 foot high ruler.

So, after watching the finale (and some of s4), I'm left with a few questions about magical ability. How much magical ability does twilight have versus the other alicorns, and how much magic do the other alicorns actually have? I'm talking raw ability here, not rainbow power. We can assume that Luna and Celestia are equal because both raise the sun and the moon and both are siblings (though being siblings doesn't necessarily mean the same amount of magical ability (see Twi and Shining Armor). Celestia and Luna do appear to have basically the same destinies/jobs though. The only difference is one raises the sun and the other the moon. Cadence's ability seems to be directly derived from love, and when that love is taken away she loses her ability. I do not believe at this time there is a way to quantify how much ability she has, so all we can believe is that the amount of ability she posseses is related to the amount of love in bloom. Now, twilight. At the moment, we don't have much to really go off of, as we have never seen Twilight face other powerful beings as an alicorn without the use of rainbow power. We also haven't seen her attempt to raise or lower the moon/sun or anything else significant using her ability alone. It is still possible though that twilight may have more ability than the other princesses (Yes, I'm reading into this too much, but it's fun to do that!). I say this because of how magic looks when twilight is using it in the finale after she has gained the power of the other princesses. Instead of being dominated by Celestia's yellow or Luna's blue magic, the magic is still twilight's purple. The same reigns true with twilight's fight against Tirek. In many frames it appears that the attacks twilight is using are mainly white (a mixture of the princesses' magic (?)) and purple, Twilight's magic. So, there are a few possibilities: Because twilight is the caster of the magic, the magic gives off her color the most Twilight is using her magic more than the other princesses' (though this seems unlikely since most of twilight's attacks are colored mainly white) Twilight's magic is more prevalent because there is more of it or twilight it outweights the other princesses' magic. I believe in the third personally. Twilight's magical ability surpasses the other princesses. Celestia even said that Twilight's abilities were amazing before she ascended. Why couldn't they still be extremely high for an alicorn after? What do you all think? Who has the most magical ability?
