Shipping why you so expensive?
How much is shipping?
Huh, just double checked and it's cheaper than I remember. $14 for international (I think last time I checked I didn't see the alternative to the $59.89 UPS charge ), could be worse I suppose.
For you in the US it'll be cheaper I guess (not familiar with the postal charges for inside your crazy big country ).

Works out at £25 total after conversion from dollars to GBP, quite a bit but I've bought a few t-shirts from bands I've seen on tour which cost more than that.
And who can put a price on the coolness, awesomeness and radicalness that would come from having a Rainbow 'Danger' Dash t-shirt?

And my greatest question, why was this show created for
a supposedly young female audience, but then there are many hints
towards other films and media? Would that not imply they created it
for the fathers or mothers of their daughters?
Now as I leave you all with the end of my rant I will say I enjoy theoretical
violence. I have never violently attacked another human being. But I do find
fictional violence and war to be entertaining even though I am well aware of the
value of human life, and so do many of you fans of MLP as I imagine you
are on this forum because you like at least something games workshop is doing. So
even though I am an androgynous fellow ( yet I like sporting a moustache go figure )
why do you enjoy this show?
It was made to be a show that children could watch with their parents without their parents needing to use pills to endure it. So you get the sly nods to the older people who the creators expect will end up having to watch it because their child does.
A personal favourite of mine was a The Big Lebowski reference in a bowling alley in which you see four of the characters from that film in pony form (The Dude, Jesus, Walter and Donny). The Big Lebowski is totally unsuitable for the child target demographic so the only reason to put it in there is because a) Lauren Faust is a huge fan (she did also reference it in Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends) and b) You know parents/older people be watching so throw them something they'll be able to laugh at without their child.
Add to that great characters (even if they're only in it for 2 episodes *cough*Discord*cough*) and you've got something I'm quite happy to sit down and watch.

I'm surprised, but happy, that the thread has been going strong for so long.
I mean 93 pages.. WOW.. I'm still working on 14, though I did love the lil personality chart and happy to be a Luna \(^o^)/
Anyways, Love the t-shirts and the converted pony minis! Can't wait to see more on them.

There are some who walk until their legs fail them and they fall to the ground. I find that respectable.
Then there are those who drag themselves further. I find that admirable.

The first few pages of this thread are hilarious, considering that this is a forum for people who like to play with toy soldiers. It's a perfect example of the geek hierarchy flowchart in action.
