Well without turning this into a Star Wars thread, I'll answer that question then we should move on.
Spoiler:
Grand Admiral Thrawn is the main antagonist in the novels Heir to the Empire, Dark Force Rising, and The Last Command, collectively known as The Thrawn Trilogy. Written by Timothy Zahn, they were the first novels written to depict events taking place after Return of the Jedi, and focus on the campaign of Grand Admiral Thrawn, a Chiss with incredible abilities of pyschoanalysis of entire species by examining the art that culture has produced, as well as tactical foresight and being able to predict almost every move and thought of others.
Anyway, back to ponies.

There are plenty of humorous mlp/tf2 crossovers out there. And some a bit questionable.

I eventually have plans to make a Royal Guard-themed Renegade IG army. So far, I've got plans to use Victoria Miniatures on Pistolier heads. Stay tuned for September, when the time I've alloted for them comes.

Good news, I've started on the codex. Should be good for September. Hopefully.

Gah. That makes the cost of my Cold One unit plans rather high.
Plan is to have them so they can be taken off the cold ones....
And mounted on Derpies.

Yeah, they're going for around $80 a figure on eBay. I've been stalking HTS since Monday morning waiting for the leftover stock(California law requires them to hold extras for exchange of damaged purchases) to go up so I could get ONE at retail price. At SDCC itself, they sold out of Derby(and I hear the $125 Jem doll, too) first day.
I was able to complete my order, refreshed the exclusives page and she was sold out(along with everything except the Helicarrier, Masters of Evil, Star Wars carbonite set, and zombie Cliffjumper). All of that happened in about 5 minutes, btw.

Guys. Season three may actually be starting in august:
Fixed the video link. And I wouldn't get too excited about it. Could be misheard, especially seeing as the audio was slowed.

Wait a minute. How come it's not until I saw this extra large pic of it that I noticed Foal Free Press is printed in an alphabet of letters being randomly flipped around and upside down (including the word 'free' written backwards), and also that it's endorsed by the Ultramarines?
EDIT: Also, just checked EQD, they say MLP won't air in August, but the true date will be announced a month in advance, and 'The Crystal Pony' DVD will be released in December so it's definitely airing soon.
