If only there was a glow in the dark Queen Chrysalis figurine, may be considered a waste of batteries but then LEDs don't drain much, and rechargeable batteries exist, such a negligible amount of power used isn't worth worrying about, not if you can find an efficient way to recharge it, like say, solar power. Yeah I believe you, adventure elements exist in MLP so it is conceivable you would be watching other fictions that are adventure stories. One of my favourite movies being, Legend 1985.

Oh yeah I wouldn't worry about a single LED figurine, it'd look cool - I'd like to limit batteries cos of cost (and lithium/cobalt sourcing is... hmm, dodgy haha) but rechargeables are awesome for that and cheaper long term for the user as well :]

Nyeh heh I meant Adventure as in the series Digimon Adventure but I like adventure as a genre in general - I actually did feel like the Elements of Harmony reminded me of the crests in Digimon Adventure in concept. I feel like if Lauren Faust had gotten her way the series would have felt more adventure oriented in perhaps the way Digimon Adventure handled the bearers of the crests (which would be the bearers of each element in the pony universe). If I recall correctly Lauren Faust wanted it to be more of an overarching adventure than the format the series followed in the end.

I never watched Digimon so I cannot comment on it, sorry.

As for Lauren Faust's vision of My Little Pony FIM, it is sad that Hasbro did not cooperate well with her, I wasn't aware of everything that happened behind the scenes but it does appear that the show was not as good as it could have been. Queen Chrysalis could have been depicted as being more edgy, more dark than what we got in Mean Six episode. From what I saw, Queen Chrysalis was better in A Canterlot Wedding episode as she was shown to be a master manipulator and infiltrator, and she nearly got her way with the protagonists of the show, she pulled all that off without the help of non Changeling villains like Tirek and Cozy Glow. Also in the comics she was far darker from what I researched about her characterization, even going as far as to kill a kitten in front of Cutie Mark Crusaders, and seemingly draining Equestrian citizens to near death, if not actually killing them, the implication was in the wiki I read about her on that she is certainly capable of making the emotional energy drain lethal if she wanted to.

Modern TV shows patronize the audience though, I'm glad Warner Brothers wasn't like that in the 90's and early 2000's on Cartoon Network, they actually did make their villains commit murders and even genocides in some instances like in Justice League, yet it still managed to remain on daytime TV.

My throat is still a bit sore, but it’s better than it was yesterday. Hopefully by tomorrow it’s all better.

Calm before the storm of work. Yesterday wasn't so bad though, see how today's shift goes.

I fear some people may call me childish or weak for collecting these, but thankfully this forum is a safe space to bring it up. I love how inclusive this community is. My Little Pony Friendship is Magic Mane Six figures. A great collectors piece for one of my shelves.

THOSE ARE SO ACCURATE WHAT?! WHO MADE THESE THEY'RE BEAUTIFUL!

The only thing I have to say negative about it is (trumpet sad noise) no Applejack hat

Agreed, the hat is basically half of AJ's personality, there is a reason she always has it on. This  not that 

[Raskolnikov 703]

Sleepy, did not get anywhere near enough sleep last night dhslfjlsgj

[Slumberlumber 641]

Woke up this morning to find out that my volunteer group, (whom I'm co-hosting a conference with next weekend, both scared and excited about it) wants to meet TONIGHT, while I'm working! Pretty sure we agreed that it'd be this weekend when I'm off, but what do I know it seems. Told them I'd try to make it, but to be honest I might not be able to. Or even want to on such  short notice. Frustrated an angry.

[Crypty Scribbles 5,833]

I'm feeling classy and dancy. It's Friday, weekend is about to begin, groovy swing is in my earbuds and I'm dancing over the breathing city through rays of low sunshine 

[Finding_Marty 882]

I am semi-happy because got some lectures this weekend and I would love to go somewhere far and rest. But on the other hand, I am not the lecturer so I can either listen or sleep. Not that bad haha

Yeah sort of, but they don't have Applejack's hat, as you mentioned. Other than that the models are accurate I would say as well.

I am disappointed as well because the hat is literally part of Applejack's wild west identity, 

I might get a Zecora action figure at some point as well if I can find one, Zecora is another character I love from the show, she is their resident healer, using what appears to be herbal medicines. I just wished the show had done a better job with ethnic diversity because there really did not appear to be many Zebras in My Little Pony Friendship is Magic, I mean it would have made sense, to have their equine civilization have more variety.

Been there. Usually I went to the gym in the early morning to try an stay awake.

[Dawnshine Wonder 2,426]

 

Dah Onion Eater, in case you are wondering, these are what you're looking for, they're officially made figurines of Mane Six, just in case any of you here wish to buy your own set.

As for how I am feeling, well, relaxed, for the night, I may listen to some music before bed but it was great talking with everybody here today.

Don't let the boss hear this

So well known fact in my retail store: Not a MORNING PERSON.  Ive raised my voice at my bosses over dumb shit first thing in the morning.  Hell even my coworkers will stay away from me now.  I also warn new ppl.

 

Good,  I'm on a small VAC this week and also got me a firepit to burn things 

[Dawnshine Wonder 2,426]

Livid, because of a permissions error issue that is remaining on my PC with my One Drive folder, even after a clean install, I am definitely going over to my Raspberry Pi 5 setup with Linux soon for MLP forum use and music listening sessions.

I've had it with Windows. This is why I don't bother with drive encryption, because it only takes one thing to go wrong and stupid stuff like this happens.

I can access my One Drive on server end, but the local file on the drive is locked and I cannot get rid of the problem. 

Drive encryption is supposed to protect your PC, but in practice because of glitches, it can also lock you out of your files as well, and Windows has this issue where it will attempt to encrypt things when you install it, I had to disable that bitlocker thing after a clean OS install, even then, my One Drive folder is still locked. Well, I guess that ruined my day. I will see what can be done, right now I am making a local backup of my One Drive folder on my computer, before I attempt a deletion and then resync to see if it can be fixed that way. Probably not though, knowing my luck.

I'm feeling cranky... I got woken up by this super loud chainsaw from constructions nearby. Jeepers, it was scary!
