Andrewnuva199 Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 How much are the blind bags, on average?I think they're about as expensive as the LEGO Minifigures, so about $2.99, give or take some half-dollars.

Zok: Insane Math Wizard Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 So I have a question. Can anyone recommend me any fan-made songs that are a lot like the songs in the show? I'm talking... [*]Good voice acting to match the characters who are supposed to be singing[*]Musical-theater style, from the point of view of the characters singing[*]Nothing terribly out-of-character (like over-the-top shipping)Yeah, that's probably a bit specific. But now that we're in a hiatus between new episodes, I'd like to get into some of the fan stuff that I haven't really paid any attention to so far, like music and flash videos. But I still think I'd enjoy it best if it has those characteristics I really like in the "official" show.If you're looking for a nice song that probably fits the description you'd like, I would look at Daddy Discord. It is about Discord's spawn, Screwball (She appears flying in Return of Harmony pt. 2) as she looks over the Han Solo-like Discord. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been fond of the fanon interpretation of Screwball as Discord's daughter. I prefer to think of her as a pony who was unfortunate enough to get her cutie mark during the chaos of Discord's reign. It's an interesting thought: what if a pony got a temporary power and then found that they were especially talented at using it?

BZCoolness Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I don't think it would work that way, because if the power is only temporary, then it can't be their talent, since it doesn't last forever.

There's probably a whole subset of fanfiction describing a pony losing the ability to perform their talent through injury or other causes, as well.

Andrewnuva199 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Open question to current blind bag buyers: Obivously, investing in those toys are more iffy territory than investing in LEGO Minifigure Blind bags due to the fact that all the characters share a selection of about six or seven different molds, which means you're either going to get a known character from the show, a "shiny" oddly coloured variant, or some random character Hasbro's marketing team made up. Would you say its worth buying those from the store-bought bags, conisidering those circumstances? Or if I really wanted them, I should go to eBay and start fighting in bidding wars?

Roablin Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 (edited) My brother knows, and doesn't seem to mind.No way I'd ever tell my parents though.Heck, they don't even know about BZP, and I'm freakin' staff here. That sums up me.I have four younger brothers, one of them knows about it. Three of them suspect it but don't know for sure. I love dropping MLP references around them.

Hanako Herupa Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 So, uh.How 'bout that documentary?Well you were being rather vague at first. I was thinking you were talking about Saberspark's Ballad of the Brony. Which was great by the way, it was rather interesting.Now though after looking around a bit, I assume you're talking about John De Lancie working on a Brony documentary. Apparently this news came out yesterday.By the way Epic Wub Time came out on Saturday and it was hilarious. Had Octavia and Vinyl Scratch in it. Rev does an excellent Discord."Next time, Next time Pinkie, I'll eat all your cupcakes!" - The Violinist"When we crank that bass up to eleven it cleans the dishes on a microscopic scale." - Vinyl ScratchIt's even better than Epic Pie Time, well in my opinion.Finally I'm starting on a fic, I guess.

Alyska Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Sooo, that LEGO CUUSOO project got to 7000... and there's still no Official "Congratulations for 5000 Supporters" comment from LEGO. Discuss.My guess is that LEGO is looking into licensing earlier than usual because of the problems it may cause. But I get the feeling that if they'd received a straight "No", they would have just archived the project by now. So, there may in fact be some serious consideration going on...

Sumiki Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I'll be the first to admit that I don't know a whole lot about the inner workings of Cuusoo, but I don't see it as really shocking that they weren't congratulated for 5000 supporters ... I don't think it's an indication that they're looking into it, necessarily. It might have just fallen through the cracks.

Andrewnuva199 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Lots of projects have appeared to miss their 5000 supporter message.

Alyska Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Currently, there are only three projects with above 5000 supporters (Not including the ones in review), so I doubt that they would have "fallen through the cracks". Only one of them (Star Wars Dark Bucket) has received the 5000 message, and even that didn't sound all that optimistic (licensing issues etc).We know that LEGO reviewed the Serenity project early because of potential content issues, so my guess is that they're doing a similar thing with MLP due to licensing.

zerack: the rogue Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 It is actually now fully funded, and any extra donations will be going towards expanding it. Its original idea was to be a Bronycon documentary, but if they get extra cash, they are going to expand it to be more encompassing. They have details over at another website that talks about ponies on a Daily basis.

Bundalings Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Wow, you need to chill a bit and stop being so hypersensitive. Just because no one replies to a post you make doesn't mean people are actively trying to ignore you - they just have nothing to add. I had not heard of the fluffy pony meme so I didn't bother replying - doesn't mean I hate you. Everyone else had a similar reason, I'm sure.--It's funny, even though the songs from MLP seem so catchy and I've seen all the episodes many times, I can't remember all the lyrics to any of the songs, yet I can recall the lyrics to Pinkie's Brew and Sweetie Belle's Big Race perfectly.
