Ah, alright. Thanks! Time to get back to tinkering.

I used to not care much for Rarity, but I think she's my favourite of the mane 6 right after Twilight Sparkle.

Dat voice acting.

She's had comparatively more character development than the rest of the cast, I think.

Shaded version of the Rarity sketch from last night.

In a way I think that was a really good decision, actually. Rarity could easily have been really annoying if they just kept her prissy and bitchy - they needed to give more focus to her and her positive qualities to make her likable.

Say, thinking of that: Have we had any episodes without twilight entirely? I think she at least play a small role in the CMC episodes. We should totally have a Twi-free episode to focus on... other cast pairings this has been suggested like umpteen-million times now hasn't it.

And now off-topic but I'm tired, why does my spellchecker recognize umpteen as a real word?

There've been episodes where her role was pretty negligable, but I don't think we've seen an ep where she NEVER appears. She is the protagonist after all.

Plus, she needs to be present in order to deliver the moral at the end. It'd be pretty weird if Celestia suddenly started recieving friendship reports from Pinkie Pie wouldn't it?

I thought "umpteen" was a proper word?

Informal, but it exists.

So, Twilight has a balloon, Applejack has a truck, and Pinkie has a car.

I don't feel safe in this world anymore.

wait, what?!

Rarity needs to get a moped.

In honour of William Anderson, Background music composer extraordinaire.

See the commercial I linked at the bottom of the last page.

Rarity's mode of transportation is her Royal Gem Carriage (seen in the Create Your Own Magical Canterlot Castle game), which I can only assume is pulled by her neighbors from "The Best Night Ever"

@Ginger: Applejack can be honest with herself about what happened when she's not Discorded, I suppose. =D

Also, RD has an airplane.

awwww man, that is SO cool

Seems a little bit redundant.

Fluttershy should have sometime totally random. Like a zeppelin.

Hmmm...Random vehicles for Fluttershy...hovercraft. Unicycle. Train. Ambulance. What else?

Actually, G3.5 Earth Pony Rainbow Dash is the one with the airplane. All G4 Rainbow Dash gets is a skateboard with handlebars (to go along with Fluttershy's tricycle and Twilight's scooter).

EDIT: Speaking of Fluttershy, I recently discovered that Adventures in Ponyville was going to have a Fluttershy minigame. According to some Dummied Out text, it was supposed to be about guessing what order which animals go in. See the unfinished Flash file here.

That's like Superman having a jet plane... that punches people.

Have you ever played Battlefield? That was my main form of transportation, punching people with jets!

... Astrotrain...

Fluttershy already has a vehicle — a flying carpet made of butterflies.

Rarity should have a palanquin.

Do ponies really need vehicles? Apart from maybe aerial ones and some larger ones to transport things ponies couldn't carry. (Like the flying truck from which a piano fell on Twilight.)

People often don't need to use their cars, but many of them still do.

I suppose the same would apply for ponies.

True, but humans can't ran as fast or nearly as long as ponies can.
