Before the sudden arrival of Funko's MLP line, the 2011 Mcdonald's line was the closest to show accurate toys we had. After buying Derpy and Rainbow Dash, I am impressed. Sure, Rainbow Dash' mane has unnecessary blue in the front, however this line has a lot of potential. By the way, there are two distinct versions of Derpy currently. The first run she was printed with a 5 bubble cutie mark, and the recent/all consecutive runs have the correct 7 bubbles. I have both, and each has their pros and cons. First of all, both are not exactly 'Hasbro quality' in the sense that the pony you buy will have different QC issues than the other brony. Excess glues, black specs stuck in the hardening vinyl, etc. However some seem to be a little more without issue than others. The 5 bubble Derpy is incorrect, however I noticed the QC is better than the new corrected 7. My recommendation is to get both if you can, perhaps display the 7 and store the 5, as it will be something cool to have and perhaps rise in value. (An interesting note is that both variants have different code numbers on the bottom of the box) Fluttershy and Dr.Hooves are confirmed next, with Funko stating that they are due in a few months, perhaps February. It is subject to change though. Wow I really geeked out there.

The ideas of Celestia pretending to be evil in order to teach Twilight are excellent. It can absolutely work in the show. Here is an angle I have (it will sound minutely similar to the first Discord episode but here it goes): Let's say someone (like King Sombra) puts the idea in Twilight's head that Celestia will end up like him, either directly by flat out saying it, or indirectly by her uncovering that he had very similar traits to her before he corrupted/went evil (with the assumption that he wasn't "born evil"). Of course Celestia would not end up like that, as I pretty much agree that she is the ultimate source of love and purity on the show. However Twilight might start to think with poor interpretations of some of Celestia's actions, and maybe temporarily lose faith or hesitate or something. By the way, an interesting "element of disharmony" would be doubt, which in my opinion would clash with overwhelmingly the element of magic, as you have to believe in order to use it.

Hello btw. haha. First post. I have seen a LOT of intreperetations/connections to various liscences (TF2, Splinter Cell), but I would have to say this made me instantly think of Snake Eyes from another Hasbro liscence, G.I.Joe. Anyone else think so? I really hope this becomes something big. Crossovers would be amazing. Perhaps Pinkie Eyes. Snakie Pie. Idk
