Welcome to LowPonreViews because after analyzing Twilight's Kingdom I
thought you know I have a lot of thoughts on these episodes so why don't I
jump on this bandwagon and....
oh my that's a lot of people have to stand out against
never mind I'll just do videos with crazy edits to set myself....
Wait, that means I'll be using copyrighted imagery and I have no desire to deal with Hasbro right now
Okay I've got it I'll look at My Little Pony merchandise I've
legitimately bought thus not tipping off any copyright BOTS here we go!
Well uh I'm embarrassed this is the only piece of pony merchandise I own at the
moment I actually didn't even buy this I got it for Christmas still I guess the
best place to start is....
Oh wait no never mind again. I just found this book at my work, it's perfect
and you know what else I found in my work this thing I don't know what
it is but all the kids wanted one so oh yeah
if that doesn't date the video I don't know what will
WHAT?!
Wait do reviews like this usually have transitions?
and here we are now I think the first thing to start
off with is the cover and just how lying it is oh you thought it was just those
tabloid magazines that have that nope even kids ones will blatantly lie to get
you to buy their book don't believe me let's just count the sins *wink* on this cover alone
six that's six things already wrong and that's just the eye
catch the part that gets your attention it makes you want to read what's inside
of course that's the point since the eye catch is the only thing you're allowed
to read before becomes a crime because shame on you for wanting to read a
little fun thing they put in the back of every book I mean it's not like you're
reading the whole thing just the last page and it's not like you're ignoring
the customers to read it so stop breathing down my neck I know what
stealing is and what's not seriously it's not worse than me downloading
videos for sin....I mean.............
WHAT?!
let's tackle these lies one by one is they will help to
ease into the other issues of this book first off this book has over 200 plus
characters right okay maybe we exaggerated it let's say 150? 100? that's
right there are actually only 91 different
characters in this book don't believe me let's go through them right now hmm
actually I've got a better idea for this
And now all the characters of friendship
is magic or deletes those important enough to be in this book
Twilight, Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash
Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Spike, and Discord
Celestia, Luna, Cadence, and Ember, Prince Blueblood and Prince Rutherford
Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, Babs Seed, and Pipsqueak, Silver Spoon and Scootaloo
Diamond Tiara, Snips and Snails, Mr. Cake, Mrs. Cake, Pound and Pumpkin Cake too!
Big McIntosh, Granny Smith, Braeburn, Flim, Flam, Apple Bottoms, wait who is this?
Flurry Heart, Gabby, Gilda, Gustave Le Grand, Shining Armor, Thorax, Chrysalis....
A.K. Yearling, Ace Point, Aloe, Daring Do, Cheese Sandwich, Cherry Jubilee
Chief Thunderhooves, Cranky Doodle Donkey, Matilda, Donut Joe, Featherweight
Bulk Biceps, Coloratura, DJ Pon-3
Little Strongheart, Lotus Blossom, Mulia Mild
Amethyst Maresbury somehow made it in this book
Lyra Heartstrings, Co...I mean Miss Pommel
Ms. Harshwhinny, Hoops, Octavia Melody
Hoity Toity, Flitter, Gladmane, and Soarin
and Spitfire and Moondancer and Iron Will and Mayor Mare and Filthy Rich and Fancy Pants
and Sapphire Shores and Prim Hemline and Vapor Trail and Sky Stinger and Trenderhoof
and Zecora and sweetie drops and...
Huh, so they'll give up Time Turner for Doctor Whooves but still won't let us have Bon Bon
Starlight Glimmer and Trixie, Sunburst, Cheerilee, Jet Set and Upper Crust,
Maud Pie, and Lightning Dust Photo Finish and Zesty Gourmand
And there you have it all 91 characters
and notice how I say characters yeah some of these aren't
even ponies and I'm not talking about those iffy pony characters like Discord
Cranky and to some extension Spike no offense no they put characters like
Ember and Gilda in here well I'm sure don't want to be referred to as ponies
and now that also goes against the next thing a pony a page I mean I've already
said these aren't ponies but even by that notion I expect a character on
every page so let's look at a couple pages at random and see ok there's a
pony and the next page hmm last time I checked lions aren't ponies or is this
how the Griffons made it into this book ok next page yep no ponies here you are
barely in two degrees of ponies right now and that's not even official ponies
and the next page oh hey ponies! Oh woah Hascon I will so not be going to that not
because I don't want to because we all love and support Hasbro
here especially their official releases no need to claim this video no I just
can't afford it right now but hey anyone that does go tell them LowPonView sent you
No, it doesn't matter if you were already planning on going just say it
spread the word we need to get my name out there now if you excuse me I'm going
to self advertise in the comments
I am doing this right yeah? yeah I should be getting kill yourself replies any minutes now
WHAT?!
Now for these posters, as for the larger puzzle that's one lie
that's actually a benefit because the big poster is not made up of complex
pieces you have to cut out just very simple rectangles
that's nice but look at that it's a pink background not the yellow one you
advertise now how am I supposed to proudly display this in my room?
Actually it does brighten up the room pretty nicely and it may be a nice addition
*door opens* Oh crap, that's my roommate!
Anyway that's the big poster and now for these tiny and by tiny they mean the
size of the page yeah tiny just because you're associated with my little pony
doesn't mean you have to emphasize it to sell it and cute yeah they would be cute
if they weren't filled with these advertiser friendly models and it's odd
because their actual character pages look more show accurate, well, some of them do
but they're still cute characters overall but you know what's not cute
simple editing errors that take no more than three seconds to fix you see this
look how terribly placed mr. cake is above mrs. cake now how could I proudly
hang this up when I can make something better in here let's time it
and that is what the most basic of Photoshop and the vectors you clearly
had finally put shadows under these characters or don't now for one final
thing with these character models on the cover we have those uncanny merchandise
models making you think oh boy that's what all these pages are going to be
filled with but interestingly enough we have actual show quality models for
Fluttershy Pinkie and Applejack good thing too because seriously what's with
these merchandisers reluctance to put a hat on her...oh it's so they don't have to
make a hat accessory now we need to expend more manpower for making hats for
Pinkie and everyone's favorite Royal Ribbon who I now demand to be in the
Season 7 finale because if she's not I swear to Glim Glam I will go down to
Hasbro and DHX and I will take that Royal Ribbon doll and shove it up
WHAT?!
So something I noticed is where are they getting these show models from I mean the CMC have their
cutie marks, Rara has her new look and the biggest thing is Thorax is not only
in his new form but he has his pink heart medal
now these show after your models aren't the best like all of these are season 7
accurate except Babs seriously how hard is it to put a cutie mark on her I mean
you put one on Scootaloo not very well might I add the show even gives you
exactly what looks like ok there's no image of it on her but I see you have the
simplest form of Photoshop just like the Cakes it's a simple cut magic erase
erase regularly skew a little here there! Then there's Gladmane with these
unusually thin lines and also Flam's weird waterlogged mustache and Moondancer
is in her depressed loner getup and you know that's fine make her look a little
different then or clothes-less background Pony Twilight clone appearance yet you could
have her smile I mean you didn't have any trouble making Zesty Gourmand smile
and I have no idea where you got this image from the one and only time she
smiles is this yes this is going my way smirk that Maud gets in you know I love
these little phrases they put here as just this is the quote we want you to
remember these characters by you've got nice short ones like Maud here or oddly
long ones like Octavia you know I wonder what they did for DJ
Vinyl: AWWW YEAH!
I think someone owns Nowacking some royalties seriously if you want us to
believe she's mute then go all the way I mean this isn't like Scootaloo where
there's a legitimate fear in being truthful to her apparent disability as it
can dash hopes of seeing her fly DJ is happily living your life not
talking like this is where you can do a disability right just say DJ Pon-3
actually can't speak but that doesn't stop her from communicating her love of
music to her friends boom you've got perfect character description and you
feel the friendship quota ah makes me question the choice of some of these
quotes like Granny Smith here surely there's got to be something from Family
Appreciation Day or Apple Family Reunion something that shows the good from all
["Soup's on" repeats]
LittleshyFiM: Why is Granny Smith's go to phrase always "soups up?"
Because it's apparently the best phrase ever to describe her character I mean come on how dense are you?
WHAT?!
And with that let's move on to the final issue the catalog of 200 characters
I mean not mentioning a pretty obvious background Pony exclusion from this
lineup and my personal second favorite d........decently characterized pony m.... Minuette
and considering how they decided on whom to choose for this book because
seriously if you can put Apple Bottoms in here for that one scene than anypony
who speaks with a name is qualified it can't be that hard to reach 200
characters right? Here we go!
Nightmare Moon, Savoir Fare, Daisy, Rose, Lily
Twist, Dumbell, Score, Fido, Rover, Spot, Sheriff Silverstar, Aunt orange
Uncle Orange, Twilight Velvet, Night Light, igneous Rock, Cloudy Quartz, Marble Pie,
Limestone Pie, Cookie Crumble, Hondo Flanks, Amethyst Star, Fleur De Lis,
Hayseed Turnip Truck, Dr. Fauna, Dr. Horse, yes it is his actual name I'm just as shocked as you
Uncle Apple Strudel, Nurse Redheart, Ahuizotl,
Mr. Waddles, Garble, Cloudchaser, Blossomforth, Thunderlane, Rumble,
a page for the changelings and a page for the royal guard, King Sombra, Apple Rose,
Auntie Applesauce, Miss Peachbottom Dr. Caballeron, Suri Polomare I mean
you got the other two, Goldie Delicious, Fleetfoot, Toe Tapper, Torch Song, Zipperwhill
Randolph, Seabreeze, Silver Shill, Claude, Tirek, Double Diamond, Party Favor,
Sugar Belle, Nightglider, Troubleshoes, Tree Hugger, Steven Magnet yeah kinda
he's got enough with Cranky and all that wait where was I back...background ponies yeah
Minuette, Twinkleshine, Lemon Hearts, Sassy Saddles, Wind Rider,
Spoiled Rich, Ma Hooffield, Big Daddy Mccolt, Svengallop, Tender Taps
Dragon Lord Torch, Pliad Stripes, Mr. Stripes, Zephyr Breeze, Mr. Shy, Mrs. Shy
Coriander Cumin, Saffron Masala, Quibble Pants, Petunia
So that's 81 more characters bringing the total up to 172 hmm there's at least 25 new characters
already introduced in season seven but I won't count that yet so let's just try
to get to at least plus 175 so let me see...oh well there's Starswirl he is a pretty
big character and of course Flash Sentry oh and with that you can
introduce Sunset at least her Pony form and then just a little tie into
Equestria Girls do a little cross promotion get those new fans so that's
one seventy-five just one more to get it over that mark ah oh okay fine
That's right Hasbro it's time to finally take a stand just put her in just put in the name
Muffins it doesn't matter if that's not what the fans want the fans want to call
this one Vinyl Scratch but what do you do you give it DJ Pon-3 just put her in
and leave everything else behind and with that we have over 175
So with all of this laid out on the table in the end I rate this book with all of its
strangeness and lies an 8 out of 10 because in all honesty there is no false
information...kinda and it does have a lot of variety from supporting
characters to background characters to antagonists to villains a good book to
give to any new fan easily the best book because it mentions the best character
ever Amethyst Maresbury I mean who doesn't love this character obviously
the best part of The Crystal Empire *heavy breathing* Oh the best premier ever *breathing intensifies*
WHAT?!
Thanks for watching and join me next time where
I'll be reviewing this picture of a 4 inch Coloratura figure that I saw at my work
Just a picture because I'm too cheap to buy the actual thing unless
it's actually sang with Lana Hall *gasp* forget the creepy Twilight robot Hasbro
make a singing Rara immediately
I will so buy that!
