Oh, I always loved those at the museum. I remember one special Members’ Night when the curators were there showing how they were made. The mother takes lots of tetracycline in order to stain the embryo’s developing skeleton black. (This is why tetracycline antibiotics are rarely given to children.) Then when it reaches the proper stage of development, it’s removed, then it’s fixed in formaldehyde or glutaraldehyde. Then it’s dehydrated in a series of increasingly more concentrated alcohols. Then it’s gradually clarified by a long soak in various solvents (mostly hexane).

Looks like a ward skin from LoL

It looks like the hood ornament on Princess Morbucks’s limousine.

OH CHRIST JUST GOOGLED IT. THEY WERE REAL AND THEY’RE STILL THERE AND IT’S WORSE THAN I REMEMBER FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Also I gotta say  
See-through babies freak me out.
 
I went to COSI in Columbus, OH when I was like… five? And they had this kind of BodyWorks thing there, but it was with… human fetuses in various stages of development.
 
And they were very, very translucent.
 
This actually had an effect on me becoming vegetarian.
 
The best part is I’m not actually sure that they weren’t artificial. They totally might’ve been and someone could’ve just been messing with me by telling me they were really but hey, when you’re five… Also I was too freaked out to check in-person since I thought they WERE real :P

That’s because the Cake twins are secondary characters. Applejack is a background pony.

@soundtea  
Oh yeah, forgot about that. But Pumpkin and Pound Cake still had the old-school baby eyes at the end of “The Cutie Remark - Part 2”.
 
Not that consistency on this point is crucial, but still… ¯*(ツ)*/¯

@Background Pony #7A01  
Actually seems they’ve phased out the beady eyes. AJ’s baby picture in TOWPPN had her with the same kinda eyes Flurry has.

@Dreamsicle: You don’t want to know how toyetic Hasbro can get.
 
But unless she somehow becomes a secondary or supporting character in the show, I really can’t see this as an example of the show’s toyetic nature harming its storytelling. (Can’t say I’m happy with how her eyes are pretty much normal while previous baby ponies had those oddly-stylized eyes, but that’s a minor design issue. As for the continuing normalization of alicorns, judging from stuff I’ve read regarding a couple of other projects, it looks like Meghan McCarthy and crew were headed in that direction anyway.)

The hiatus may be ongoing but it will be far from boring here.

But seriously, it looks like a Christmas ornament. XD

This looks very silly.

“But my toys”

Sigh, alicorn =/
 
Guess it’s just Skyla with a different name after all, then.
