i like the design, but my first thought was: “omg, not again. more material for merchandise”

I dunno, I just I like how it looks when animated. There’s no conceivable logic for it that I can think of; it’s just a taste thing for me I guess.

I can understand being… neutral to Twilights. Out of all of them hers might look the least awful (though that might be because her additions seem to be doing their best to be as far away from her as possible, like they’re unhappy with what theyve become and are trying to free her from themselves).
 
But how do you possibly justify feeling anything but disgust towards Rainbows?
 
She looks like she belongs in a glam-rock parody cartoon. She looks like she’s stolen the hair from either a mistreated troll-doll, or a Sonic the Hedgehog fan character (do-not-steal!). She looks like tie-dye would tell her to tone it the fuck down!

As I recall, according to Champions rules, a sufficiently outlandish costume could qualify as a Presence attack. I think the girls are managing it here.

I kinda like Twilight’s and Rainbow’s rainbow power forms. The rest I have no strong feelings one way or the other (with the exception of Rarity’s, which I find to be awful).

Fluttershy looks like she was a villain in a comic book drawn by Tim Sale.

The only one I find particularly jarring is Rarity’s rainbow power form.

Oh my dear god.
 
Im not keeping up with the show (apparently i have good reason not to), so i guess i missed this. What the fuck are those things? My christ they are horrifying. Or they would be if i could stop laughing.
 
Dash looks like the Freakazoid! And the fuck is happening with Rarity’s mane, shes got like five mane curls.

Not for those who want to dedupe this picture with #626944: I sent a request asking for #626944 to merge into this one, as people have notified me of a typo that I made in the original picture (with this being the fixed version).

well I did
