View MoreThose of you who follow me know that I have been frequenting all three of my local MINISOs lately. After scoring my Twilight Sparkle plushie, I was made aware that the IP includes keychains, so I've been watching out for those. No luck so far, but today I was surprised by something even more exciting.
These Sweetheart Paradise Surprise Box Figurines go for $19.99 before tax. So for the same price as a decent plushie, you get quite a value. The cupcake has an impressive diameter, the cotton candy stick and the heart sign lock into place securely. The trading card has a very glossy shine to it, very sparkly. The most impressive part of this presentation is, thankfully, Pinkamena herself.
I was pleasantly surprised by how solidly built she is. Pinkie is almost heavy for her size, but that keeps her from walking. The paint is well applied, and evenly coated. I do wish she locked onto the cupcake, but you can't have it all. Even after spending twenty bucks, frankly I was expecting to content myself with a good deal less than this.
As you can see, Pinkie Pie was one of three boxes left at that location, as of this afternoon. Now I hadn't been looking out for these, I came across them on my way out the door. But I do a lot of mall crawling at this point in my life. And it will not surprise me at all, in the days ahead, if I don't see any more of these. I've spoken with folks at all three MINISOs in my area, and they all tell me the same thing. MLP FIM merch doesn't stay in stock, it sells out quickly. If you want in on this, I'd get thee to thy local MINISO post haste! The pony who hesitates is lost!
You and I are not the same. And we never will be!

The sound of ponies laughing might as well be that of angels singing. You are happiest when you feel that you need nothing more than you already have. Every day in Ponyville is complete unto itself and very much worth the living.
While the Alicorn Princesses, and the Mane 6 did everything in their power to protect Equestria, it was ponies on the streets who were giving them something worth fighting for.
They have given the same gift to all of us, we who carry Equestria on within ourselves. There is a joyous song in our hearts, that no grinding of this world can ever drown out. And even though my mind might revolt against it, the sound of ponies laughing is how my heart remembers them.

As far as the Mane 6 is concerned though, I am firmly a RariDash. Not as commonly sighted a class of vessel, but I sail the Ship I love.

I myself, congratulate myself on my own level of Lyrabon Superfan. And further, I make a performance of watching my own performance, as pictured below.

Dear Princess Celestia,
What an amazing journey we have had. As you no doubt recall, we had all been so baffled and worried for the longest time. It seemed as though we would never get to know the Monolith. And even its mere presence was causing everything in Equestria to go haywire.
We all came back into the room with it for another meeting. And suddenly, all at the same time, we all knew that it was going to be okay! The Monolith did something, and then we were far above Equestria, further even than the sky itself! You were right Princess, Equestria is a sphere! Even I had struggled to visualize it, but it's true.
The Monolith was there with us. Even though it disappeared, we could still see it, but not with our eyes. We saw it, no... we knew it with our minds. I know that it sounds strange, but that is as much as I can say. Then the Stargate opened. We have traveled through spacetime before, but only as it relates to Equestria. The cosmos is vast, Princess. I wonder if even you understand just how vast the cosmos really is.
We traveled through a hyperspace tunnel that is outside of time. I witnessed the birth of our universe. Did you know that it was an unimaginable explosion? Yes, the universe and everything in it is an explosion, a very long and slow explosion. I watched time, space, energy, matter and temperature become things. We visited a planet that is covered by one vast, single ocean that is a living organism, and is even conscious! But not like you and I are conscious. We also visited another world where the atmosphere is made up of LSD, mescaline and DMT.
And then the grand tour ended. The Monolith showed us into our beautiful new home and introduced us to our latest new friend, Doctor David Bowman. He is a charming and venerable old man. He comes from a world that is very much like our own, and yet also very different. They even have ponies on his planet, but they are also very different from us. I cannot wait to see what the future has in store and I will certainly write to you again soon.
Sincerely Yours,
-Princess Twilight Sparkle

They also provide her with her sense of purpose. In her judgment, appearances are the point, cause and effect are regarded as secondary. Leaving her own touch on her environment and on her fellows, according to her creative impulses or aesthetic moors is her primary motivation. All of these are strongly negatives.
She consistently demonstrates high openness to new experiences, and high attention to detail. She is able to perform complex tasks repeatedly. She possesses a long attention span, and is able to stably focus her attention onto repetitive or cerebral tasks. Can simulate what patterns will look like while she manufacturing them. All positives.
She displays only moderate curiosity, and a tendency not to analyze situations rationally, both of these are negatives. She has a strong sense of empathy for others, and a habit of being the first to react, both positives. She has poor emotional regulation, and often adopts maladaptive coping mechanisms. She is at an elevated risk of psychological breakdowns and affective outbursts. All of these are negatives.
She has an uncanny ability to persuade her fellows to attempt new methods or experiences, this is a strong positive. She is rather reckless, and is riding as though she were on a surfboard.
She sees the diamonds, and immediately declares that they are for her. She has no conception of what they are, or what they do. Only that they are beautiful to her eyes, and that therefore they are hers. A profoundly erroneous, and dangerous assumption. Make absolutely certain not to fly near enough for her to reach out and touch them.
The Louis XVI room will likely overwhelm her for some time. But eventually it will cease to be overstimulating, and she will come to regard it as a built environment that confirms her values and worldview.
