I like Trixie mostly because of fan content. Magic Deul made me like her more as well. Pinkie Pie I like a lot because of Smile Smile Smile, and because of her breaking the 4th wall thingy.

I always found that it was pointless to like them more then the more manestream ponies. I do like Colgate though.

Pinkie: Unlimited hugging and partying! Maybe sing some songs, or the alike. That would be tons of fun! Trixie: Well. I'm screwed.

I always thought ponies were the size of shetland ponies. The only difference being they aren't as stocky and are less fluffy. Since I ride at a stable that owns a bunch of these, I see a lot of halters and saddles that could be pony sized.

I do not like shipping majority of the time. I only like 2 shippings (Trixie x Trixie, as well as Lyra x Bon Bon) That being said, I do not like this shipping. And I do not wish for it to be canon. Not to mention, Hasbro threw a fit that the writers wanted Luna in season 1. They thought the villian would still scare little girls. While they have more freedom now, I don't think this would actually happen.

This is one of the 3 main reasons I didn't like this episode. Other then the lack of continuity with the rest of the show, and the fact I don't enjoy Rainbow episodes and.... Well. This. It seemed uneedly cruel. It quite reminds me of Trixie (Who is best pony). Her career was ruined by the Ponyville folk, and no one feels slightly sorry for her. Not to mention everyone completely forgets about the whole thing. Not to mention, the reason behind her actions is /never/ brought up. In Trixie's case, it makes the cast look immature, and slightly arrogant. In Lightning Dust's case, it makes the cast (specifically Rainbow) uncaring. No one gave a damn she was so cruelly pushed out of the academy. As you mentioned, Dust's work ethic seemed to be what made her better then Rainbow. That being said, she most definitely deserves another chance. She did not break any rules. There was no rule about using tornadoes. There was no rule about cutting off the other ponies. Moral? They are at a freaking military camp! There was no reason for her to be brushed aside, without being talked to (on screen) about her actions. I do not like this Wonderbolts Academy. Tis a silly place. I /really/ like antagonists in this show. But was Dust even an antagonist? She didn't do much to deserve that title. In fact, she was a protagonist for more then the first half of the episode. So why does the show make it seem she now has Gilda status (A lot of people say she is the new Gilda). I think the best possibility for her character, would be if she was part of an anti mane 6. Perhaps Gilda would be Pinkie's rival. But that's more of a "I hope the writers do this idea..." then anything. To summarize, yes, she does deserve another chance. I feel like she's going to be the next Trixie. Her dream was ruined, but no one speaks of it ever again. And heck. I kinda like that. Dust is probably my favorite pegasus. She has a similar personality to one of my least favorite characters, but she's made out to be the bad guy because of it. Sorry for lack of sense all that made. :/

If the quality were to slip so drastically, and the show lost more then 60% of it's followers, they /might/ end it there. Of course, Hasbro likes selling them toys. So I really can't say. AlsoHasbropleasemakeaTrixietoywiththerfulloutfitthankyou.

I never understood keeping toys in packages. I got those sets, and took them out of the packaging. I hate how they are displayed in the package, and I have minor OCD.
