  1. !ohiobronies I may be coming. I'm from the MLP Arena and not a brony per-say, but I am a pony fan! Besides, I can bring some more of the totes that @purpletinker bought from me at the fair! And possibly sculpt another Zecora to sell

    • !ohiobronies What are you guys going to bring to the meet? I will have some custom OC ponies to show off. I will also be bringing pony pins and supplies to make friendship bracelets. And a special surprise for everyone attending the meet.

      • I'm pretty sure in a couple years you guys will see me on Hoarders with a team of psychologists trying to pry me away from my toy collection

      • @abigpony Carrot top is one of the best background ponies, of course everyone should love her! @nvrrmmbr it was hard to get nice curls in carrottop's hair. :P

      • !ohiobronies So starting with that will post this to the Ohio group, right? I am not good with computer. I am, however, glad to see there are a lot more bronies in Ohio (some in the northeast!) than I had originally been led to believe.

          • @leonkfox I don't know, previous to Best Wishes Pokemon didn't have tons of personality- aside from Meowth, Pikachu, and the handful of character pokemon like Pikachu, Charizard, Lapras- Comparatively, there are hundreds of other pokemon that barely got any spotlight. The ponies that got spotlight usually had some kind of minute personality (Gingerbread loves baking! Twilight loves books! Ember wants her cutie mark! essentially) and a backstory on their card when you bought them. I'm not saying that it was the best approach because it wasn't. but the toy line wasn't created alongside the cartoon, the cartoon started afterwards after some ponies had been made and the model of recolor + new pose = new pony. I just think it was a different marketing technique versus a failure to write personality into characters. Also if there are many bland characters instead of distinct ones, it's easier to replace them

          • @customanon True, but again they had other things seperating them besides personality, if you played the games or card game you couldn't use one Pokemon for every task, each one had its own type and specific stats, so the merchandise still gave each one a unique feel, but MLP toys didn't do that, but then, neither did the shows until..well, FiM. I don't mean to come off as a smart arse here mind.

          • @leonkfox (I fell asleep, finally) I wasn't trying to say that it was a GOOD plan, I was just saying that I really think that G1 went for more of a pokemon-esque gotta catch them all v. a personal approach like Faust has done. However I would have to say that G1 does have a bit more personality to the toys than G4 does standard, because while they did recolors there were also a lot of gimmick lines (so softs, twinkle eyes, etc) and ponies were in different poses. We have rearing, sitting, etc- something hasbro has failed thusfar to deliver in the G4 line. Of course, G1 started the first year with six ponies and one pose- lets hope it comes in due time

          • !ohiobronies Dave & Busters just went full-friggin'-retard mode when I tried to reserve a party room for the meetup. Earlier they'd said "sure, we can accommodate you! We handle big groups all the time, that's no problem, you can just come in, and yeah you can use the party room too" - and today, it was "no way, we would NEVER allow any large groups unless we know EXACTLY how many people are in it and you must pay a WEEK in advance and get a full buffet and no of COURSE you can't just walk in either, I don't know who told you any of that because it isn't how we operate here HURRRR HOW DO I papayasED OFF POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS". Frigging idiots.

          • !Ohiobronies If any of you cats live near the Dayton Mall and don't have a ride, holla at me, I can squeeze three more people into my Volvo. Mind you, it smells like a gym 'cause I keep my hockey bag in the trunk and I don't change out of my gym clothes to drive home. There's also no radio, and I'm a very aggressive driver. Other than that, y'know. Let me know if you need a ride.

          • decided I needed to clean my room last night around 4am. Thought it would be a good idea to get everything that needs cleaned out into the center of my room because then I couldn't help but clean it. sleeping on the couch tonight.

              • I took this picture a little while ago, and while it obviously ISN'T an MLP toy (the show hasn't debuted here just yet) does this toy somewhat resemble a chibified Applejack, or is just me? http://twitpic.com/59e1sw

                      • @quetzalcoatl I don't have an artist table but I have a friend that does and I think I can convince her to sell a couple for me. I wouldn't probably do anime-type customs because it would take a lot of effort to sculpt and stuff. I just wanted to do a couple basic background ponies (probably a couple Derpys)

                      • @quetzalcoatl Yes. Yes we are. Ohayocon is actually the only one I go to so I was wondering if anyone in attendance would have had interest in purchasing customs.
