So Remember this picture and what you thought about those designs Chances are you're going to be wanting those designs back.

They look sorta like cats. Needs more whiskers.

I've said this on another board, and this is about all I have to say about it.

For extra fun, try to figure out just what the hell Rainbow and Twilight's hairdos would look like from behind. Especially Rainbow with her double ponytail.

Bah, a tomboy like Dash would never wear a skirt. (And where are the horns?)

Rainbow I could actually see wearing a skirt. Applejack, not so much.

The original shot showed them in a modern school hall, so I'm assuming they will put the character origins more in the background in favor of wacky teenage antics. Which in turn means who cares what set the ponies apart initially and made them unique? It's gotta be like an anime. Our target audience loves animes, right?

Well. Yeah. I'm still going to watch this when it eventually hits, just to see how much of a clusterfuck it's become. From that previous picture, I was planning on just going into it completely neutrally and hoping it would be silly/stupid enough to be enjoyable on some level, but now... eh. I do have to say that the single stupidest part of that character design is they have their fucking cutie marks on their faces.

Quite frankly, I'm sincerely hopeful my cynicism is unfounded and the spinoff will be genuinely entertaining, if not even amazing. I'm no purist at all when it comes to ponies, and I think two pieces of concept art are too early to make a valid judgement about it. However it'll turn out, I'm curious to see it.

Well, if the marks were in the same place as with the ponies, we wouldn't get to see them at all (except in certain type of fanart...)

Yeah, but they have their cutie marks featured on their clothes already...

I actually like Human Dash's design better in the new image than the old one. DOUBLE RAINBOW ALL THE WAY. That being said, I'm still quite nervous about where this spin-off series is going. I want it to (and hope it does) keep the same charm that the original series has - lovable, memorable characters, simple, yet fun plot, good music, and the like.

Rainbow, Pinkie and AJ's ones are all better... what was the show going to be called again

A companion series, Equestria Girls, is set to premiere in the second quarter of 2013, where the main characters from the show will be re-envisioned as humanized characters attending school.

Oh, it's coming. It's just turning out to become pretty long. I'm almost done with the more in-depth look at the whole cutie mark/true self thing, and that part alone is about 1500 words now.

I must admit I'm mildly curious about this spinoff. On the other hand, given that Lauren Faust has always emphasized that they are ponies, not humans with pony-shaped bodies (and she has always detested any behavior that's more anthropomorphic than equine), making them humanoids sounds like spitting on her ideals.

Hey, sorry for posting this, but does anyone have a copy of Chapter 3 of the fanfic: "Hour of Twilight" by Femto? It got deleted ~2 weeks ago and using google, I've managed to recover all chapters except "Chapter 3: A Bad Omen (Reworked)". And I know it's not an official fic, but it's related to MlP, so I'm asking this here.

I can't find it, someone named Morfonious commented saying he saved all chapters up to chapter 14. Your best bet is try ask that person to pm or email you that story.

In my experience extremely few people ever respond to YouTube PM's, for some reason. While you may get lucky in this case, I wouldn't hold my breath.
