Were you satisfied with King Sombra as the antagonist?
Vega replied to Bucky McGillyCuddy's topic in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion
An issue that FiM will always have with their villains is a lack of development. The only solution is for the villains to appear in more than one/one two part episode, but it does not appear that the makers of the show wish to have recurring villains, so we are stuck with underdeveloped characters like Sombra. Hopefully that will change. -
I'm annoyed by how little the Mane Six change. One of them can go through an entire episode that seemingly teaches them an important lesson, but in the next episode, she goes right back to the way she was. I'm not advocating mass personality changes of the Mane Six or turning them all in to Mary Sues, but a little character evolution and actual application of lessons they learn beyond the episode in which they learn them would make them more interesting and realistic.

No. He does and says effectively nothing. He's the smoke monster from Lost, except with a underdeveloped and dull backstory. Not a fan at all. -
Very meh. The Crystal Fair was silly, the crystal ponies acted like loons, Sombra had about as much character as the smoke monster from Lost, we are told next to nothing about the Crystal Empire, and the entire plot somehow manages to drag and move slowly without actually revealing anything interesting. The character interactions were pretty good, but overall, these episodes did not hold a candle to the season 2 opener or finale. -
Why do so many bronies seem hellbent on spreading ponies everywhere? A great many threads here are discussions on the best methods for "converting" people, complaining about people who don't like the show, and a generally unhealthy obsession with this show. With as serious as some people are about spreading MLP, it can seem very cult-like at times, and that is very unsettling. Why do you guys care so much about making everyone like the show anyway? -
Completely, undoubtedly, unquestionably, certainly, absolutely, undeniably, unmistakeably, assuredly no. -
Both. Their contrasting personalities playing off each other is what makes them interesting. Neither one would be nearly as good a character alone as they are together.

Would you like a spin-off show set in Equestria, but not following the Mane Six? Perhaps one set in Canterlot following the exploits of Vinyl Scratch and Octavia, or a western style show following Braeburn in Appleloosa.

In Equestria, the only thing keeping the denizens of hell from escaping is a big dog. I'd have a huge security force too.

I know that they are based on the Blue Angels; it just seems that they do more than just stunt shows.
-
What exactly do the Wonderbolts do? Are they simply a stunt team, or are they the equivalent of an Equestrian air force?

What is the latest pony related merchandise you bought?
Vega replied to Apple Bloom's topic in Merchandise
Epic haul for me today. I got both of the blind bags from series two that I still needed, (Meadow Song and Lovestruck.) the Rainbow set, (I now own Emerald Ray! Most excellent!) and the Canterlot and Cloudsdale three packs. -
Anyone up for more mental breakdowns?
Vega replied to CommadorTheCyborgPony's topic in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion
We absolutely need more from Pinkamena. She was the most... unsettling of the breakdowns. Otherwise, I'd prefer for everyone to stay mostly sane. -

I bought basic Twilight and Fluttershy brushables today. The figures themselves aren't bad, but the hair is horrible to the point of utterly ruining them. I think I'll stick with blind bags.
