Clearly. :smirk:

And on the topic of durability; time may prove me wrong, but barring a massive drop in ratings and toy sales, I imagine MLP will be around in some form for as long as the HUB remains solvent.

Speaking of Rarity, adding some Official Pony Names to the pile:

From the new CCG expansion. Looks like we get a lot of the Mane 6's family in it, too:

"Hondo Flanks" was previously called "Magnum" in the Gameloft game. I'm not sure which trumps here. Probably the trademarked one :v:

The CCG is probably above the gameloft game in terms of canonicity, as it's where we got Bulk Biceps and other hints.

edit: Hondo is sure an interesting name to pick as it's the name of the largest island in Japan. :-I

It also seems way more keyed in to the show's detailed lore from what I've seen. Like, it takes its job really seriously.

Hondo is also the name of a Louis L'Amour short story that was turned into a John Wayne film, and then also novelized by L'Amour. :spike101: Your useless trivia fact for today.

Hondo Flanks is perhaps the greatest name ever created in the world. I dare say it's almost as good as Big McLargeHuge.

Hondo is a historical name for Honshu. Of course, that's cursory Googling late at night.

Likely it is more a link to the John Wayne character Hondo Lane.

:idea: The presence of Nightmare Moon and Luna presents a space-time paradox that makes this a bad picture.

:ngh: Not to mention, the baby pony designs are horrifying and there is no dawwww, only ewwwwww.

Changelings start as just a horn, then the rest of the body grows from it.

Well, I was expecting them to keep up with the "new princess every season" bit...only to find out that apparently, they decided to add -two- right as we hit hiatus.

Of course, these may just be "fillers" like Skyla was with no connection to the actual show canon.

Like Princess Skyla, these two are probably toy only. Look at the Boxart, not unique just a Celestia Recolor. These Gals are no Cadence. :-P :twiright:

They don't look or even sound special in the least, so I hope this is the case.

All that came to me was "Sterling (Silver)" to go with "Gold Lily". I do agree, these are likely just random new toys vs. extra alicorns for S5.
