I must attempt to acquire these to supplement my other official Derpy figure from Comic-Con. I hope I can find one around here, or online for not an insanely high price.

Isn't it obvious? They have access to the same technology that they use for the G-Gundam suits. For those that don't know, this is how one dons the piloting suit in G-Gundam.

No offense intended at all, but I have to agree with what people are saying here. You are looking a bit too into this and taking jokes and fanon as being honest opinions, mostly. Also, when it comes to Twilight's friends abandoning her after she chases out Chrysalis, that's shunning, AKA the silent treatment. It happens constantly in the real world, and it's not a permanent abandoning or anything like that. It's saying, "I am angry and/or disappointed at you, and can't stand to talk to you right now." After the upset party calms down and/or the one who messed up apologizes, things tend to go back to normal, unless there's a deep seated problem that it stems from. It's bred from a combination of someone being so disappointed they don't want to talk to you at the time, and them wanting to punish you by giving the cold shoulder.

Don't see what the founding of Equestria and Nightmare Moon have to do with anything. And my point was that it has continuity faults, but the show is still damned good about it since most other shows like FiM have no continuity at all, and the ones that tend to be better about continuity are usually fully fleshed out shows that have their story arc planned out from beginning to end before the show is even started. I stand by my opinion that for the type of show FiM is, and compared to other shows of its type, the continuity is great, just has some glaring inconsistencies.

That fight scene was a tribute to the Powerpuff Girls, which was another show Lauren Faust had a hand in, in case anyone didn't know that. The fight ended with the same animation style that they used in every big Powerpuff Girls fight. Fluttershy snapping the bear's neck would be a better example of "Just for the bronies." That being said, I don't mind it, as I grew up on cartoons that had things for kids, and things for the adults. The biggest thing for me is a few continuity errors, such as Spike saying he was hatched from a purple and green egg, then when we see Spike hatched, it's a purple and darker purple egg. It's not much, and might seem a bit nit-picky, but the show is usually great about its animation and continuity.
