merponies: what's going on?

[SkyHeart 102]

Alright, so personally I love merponies, and they were in the gen 1 shows, so why are they not there anymore? Did hasbro declair it no longer a race? And what do you think of merponies? Do you think they should be in an episode?

 

:3

They're actually called seaponies. I miss them from G1

[SkyHeart 102]

Me too! I think they would be cute in the new style.

[~Silver Essence~ 2,625]

Seaponies are the name.

 

And yes, they were interesting, so seeing a revival for them in the series would be a nice change of pace.

Sea ponies in the show could bring a nice revival to the series, I've always wanted to see them.

Well we know were having breezies making a comeback this season... So why not sea ponies? XD

[Lightning Bliss 1,674]

Maybe they will one day? Sea ponies coming back, but I also noticed no pony here mentions about the "Flutter Ponies" ya'll forget abou tthem too??? Poor Flutter Ponies...

 

Come on Flutter ponies! Switch to Utter Flutter Power!

Actually there are seaponies and merponies in g1.

 

In the toy line there were adult any baby sea ponies. And then there was a set of 3 baby merponies; sadly in the g1 line there were no adult merponies sold.

 

However in g3 there was a line of merponies but in the tiny ponyville size.

 

There are actually a lot of people who make custom ponies who have created some awesome merponies out of the toys.

 

Id love to see them make some sea or mer in the g4 line.

Seaponies would be awesome to see a whole arc could be made about their kingdom and race.

 

If the show doesn't have this planned they could at least add it elsewhere.

My girlfriend would love to see that.  Not to mention, I think it would definitely bring a great revivlal to the series or at least make a cameo appearance in FIM.  Good call.

I never got to see the sea ponies, but I've always wanted to see them. Any appearance from them can help me.

[SasQ 1,382]

so why are they not there anymore?

 

Well, they are sea ponies after all. They cannot just live in a grass. They need sea water.

Have you seen any sea in Equestria yet?

Find a sea, and you'll find sea ponies

Yeah, it might be interesting to see. There's a lot of space around Ponyville to explore. But there's one more race which has not been exploited much yet (from the storytelling point of view): crystal ponies from the Crystal Empire. What'bout them? We haven't seen them much in Season 4 yet.

 

And that's what I always miss: that the writers introduce some nice ideas only to never use them again :-/

 

P.S.: SHOOO....

I know SasQ I'm still waiting to See The Equestria Games could've sworn the episode would have been during our RL Olympic Games but nope.

They brought back Breezies!

Maybe one day they might do the same for Seaponies~ 

[Andaasonsan 3,205]

In the comics (Friends Forever #3) Celestia mentions seaponies in passing. It's debatable whether the comics are canon, but the comic writers also have access to future scripts of the show, so they might know something we don't.

Hasbro brought back Breezies with a G4 makeover, so I have high hopes seaponies will make a comeback in season 4 or 5.

Actually, they don't have access to the scripts, that's why Twilight Sparkle didn't become an Alicorn until issue 15.
