Well then maybe this will make you give in to your temptations. Forget a crappy recording, here's the actual clip:
The Kasrkin were just men. It made their actions all the more astonishing. Six white blurs, they fell upon the cultists, lasguns barking at close range. They wasted no shots. One shot, one kill. - Eisenhorn: Malleus

Impact miniatures have gone all-out with the pony stuff on their kickstarter lately:
I've gone for that $30 pony pack, it should be a lot of fun... I like how you get the base pony/unicorn and then from there add-on bits to make other variants including "nightmare" versions.
They're looking into bat wings for changelings and Cthulu pony too!

I've never done any of the Kickstarter stuffs before, but this intrigues me... Would you mind explaining how it works and/or giving links to right where I might find this pony pack and how I'd order it?

And then from there it's a matter of signing up, pledging the amount you want via credit/debit card and selecting the reward you want.. e.g. I selected $30 and pciked the pony pack.
The card doesn't get charged until after the kickstarter ends, and then you get your stuff delivered once it is produced.. delivery estimate for the ponies is April 2013.
Kickstarter is basically a way for companies to pay for their sculpting/ mould tooling costs in advance by going to their fans for funding instead of having to take out massive bank loans.. in return, the fans get rewarded by getting good discounts and deals.
Squig I think you might be doing it wrong, it says in the KS that the pony pack is an ADD ON. So you'd need to add it to any other pledge.
So the cheapest you could do it is for $40 Which gets you one Type 1 Mini (probably the unicorn like a boss) and then the Pony Pack. For a total of seven ponies. four unicorns, three normals and two sets of wings/hooves/chest pieces to make pegasi or alicorns.
I'd suggest messaging the KS creator, in this case Impact! to confirm.
Source: I've spent just shy of $1000 on KS.
Edit: Never mind, I'm dumb! There is a pony pack level! ....must... resist.... ponies....

We have an announcement! From Entertainment Weekly... and possibly a PLOT!?
Pony head writer Meghan McCarthy tells EW that season 3 will focus on main pony Twilight Sparkle as she advances in her magical studies: “She’s been in Ponyville for awhile now, and so her journey is going a little bit further,” McCarthy says. It’ll also feature “very catchy and very, very cute” new songs, “the usual pop culture references,” and the reemergence of a certain unnamed fan favorite villain — who McCarthy says will return “in a very, very awesome way.”
1. Sounds like a pretty epic overall plot... and a slight divergence from the usual hasbro party line of endless tea parties, how long will it take for the christians to label T-Sparkle and co evil magic using satanists?
2. It's goddamn Trixie, a chance of Discord, but I'm calling it for Trixie.
