snowflame 189 October 14, 2016 Share October 14, 2016 They look great. I wonder if the longer noses are just a thing for the consept art or if they look more like this instead of having the short noses the ponies do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmarston1 5,959 October 14, 2016 Share October 14, 2016 They look pretty cool. I hope we can get some more concept art soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Piranha 29,421 October 14, 2016 Share October 14, 2016 They look like more in tone with the show, unlike the comics which made them more majestic and, if I'm not mistaken, close to one of the previous generations Sig by Discords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlikeable Pony 2,698 October 15, 2016 Share October 15, 2016 They look like the sirens, and are Hippocampi in design rather than looking like the G1 "real life" sea pony designs. This pleases me. They look great. I wonder if the longer noses are just a thing for the consept art or if they look more like this instead of having the short noses the ponies do. I think seaponies will still have longer noses than normal ponies based on the images from the russian event; kind of to try and emulate the Long weird mouths of normal seahorses. >now all we need is the revelation that its the stallions that give birth 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonFlyer 328 October 15, 2016 Share October 15, 2016 Ooh, nice! I agree that the long noses are reminiscent of real seahorses. Also interesting to see Rarity and RD as sea ponies...they're adorable. XD I can't be the only one who hopes they somehow work in the old G1 sea pony song, right? The nostalgia would be overwhelming. Shoo be doo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EverEverOn 346 December 23, 2016 Share December 23, 2016 Wasn't it revealed that there would be a character in the movie who will be the "queen of the hippos?" I hope that I'm remembering that correctly and not just making something up. But the new seaponies resemble hippocampi. What if the queen of the hippos thing is referring to hippocampi? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, you're not mistaken; I've also read about some queen of the hippos. It's not clear if it refers to sea ponies in general, as hippo is greek for horse, but it's not impossible that they've made it short for hippocampi. Hippocampi are greek mythical creatures with the upper body of a horse, and the lower body of a fish, and the name is also given to the genus of, you guessed it, seahorses Sig by Discords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cider float 2,537 December 25, 2016 Share December 25, 2016 I wonder if there's going to be some Siren lore in Season 7. Since the Sirens do look like Sea Ponies and they would of likely lived out in the ocean as Sirens in Greek Mythology did maybe there is a relation.

cider float 2,537 December 25, 2016 Share December 25, 2016 Yes, I believe that's the real one. I just noticed Rarity and Rainbow Dash had also taken on similar forms of the Sea Ponies. I wonder if there's going to be an underwater adventure. They look like the sirens, and are Hippocampi in design rather than looking like the G1 "real life" sea pony designs. This pleases me. I think seaponies will still have longer noses than normal ponies based on the images from the russian event; kind of to try and emulate the Long weird mouths of normal seahorses. >now all we need is the revelation that its the stallions that give birth lol I was just thinking this.

TheAnimatorOfficial 567 December 25, 2016 Author Share December 25, 2016 In terms of the underwater part I hope it's 10-15% of the movie max. We came to see ponies and not just seaponies. The original Sony script had them as seaponies for over half the movie, so hopefully (and I predict) that will be fixed with this new Lionsgate/Disney veteran version. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
