@Flapjack: Yeah, it's from Egophiliac's alfalfa monster comic. I'd link you, but I can't seem to find it on her DeviantArt page.

Can you think inside the chimney?

#94327 Enlong Mon, 13th Feb '12 9:41:58 AM from The Magitek Holyland

So, I wonder which elements were used by which sister?

My thoughts on the matter are:

Celestia: Kindness, Laughter, Honesty
Luna: Magic, Loyalty, Generosity

Some of them might be switchable, but some of them fit quite well, I think.

I have a message from another time...

Attention bronies: I am the guy running the Toy Fair channel at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/oafe

There's a company doing, get this, pony trading cards that will work hand-in-hand with DHX Media to make something to appeal to kids *and* adult fans, or so I've been told.

Watch that ustream channel tomorrow, as I'll be covering it once I find them!

So hopefully we'll be seeing those sometime today!

I wonder why the difference in Unicorn horns. Is it hereditary or go with age?

plus, why more old Luna look fanart then her new season 2 look?

@ Enlong: Agreed 100%

I think that Luna fits honesty better and Celestia fits loyalty better. Though the only one that I'm almost positive on s that Celestia had laughter.

Clock is ticking!

#94333 Red Savant Mon, 13th Feb '12 9:46:00 AM from Eastern US

^Yeah, Luna's rather blunt and serious for laughter.

#94334 Enlong Mon, 13th Feb '12 9:46:30 AM from The Magitek Holyland

Thanks. In addition to fitting their personalities, I think that giving those particualr three to Luna makes her fall rather poignant, since the way her fall came about was basically an inversion of those virtues.

Luna as Honesty may work. I just knew that it'd make sense for Luna to have Generosity, since her fall came about when she believed that nobody appreciated anything that she did.

That was my reasoning as well. Also that the Elements (or at least Loyalty and Generosity) would dissociate from her for becoming Nightmare Moon leaving them free for Celestia to use to banish her to the moon.

I always had Celestia pinned as Laughter, Loyality and Kindness. With Luna as Magic, Honesty and Generosity.

#94337 Enlong Mon, 13th Feb '12 9:48:54 AM from The Magitek Holyland

Magic would probably also dissociate, since Magic is also Friendship, and she had abandoned all ties in her anger.

Yeah, that works, too. I just am sure that Celestia definitely had Laughter and Kindness, while Luna would have Magic and Generosity.

The issue is that all six fit Celestia rather well...

Do we know what the elements looked like back then?

#94340 Flapjackmaka Mon, 13th Feb '12 9:50:01 AM from Pennsylvania

I thought all six elements together = friendship?

#94341 Enlong Mon, 13th Feb '12 9:50:17 AM from The Magitek Holyland

Yes, but just because an Element fits Celestia doesn't mean that it may fit Luna more. I prefer it if it was a 3-3 split.

Probably those crystal spheres from the first episode.

No, the other five just throw the sixth into sharper relief. Friendship is Magic, and Magic is Friendship.

It's why Twilight only lost her colors when she lost all faith in her friendship with the other five.

Flapjack: A lot of people latched on to Luna during season 1 (that comic is really old), so there's a huge volume of old appearance Luna fanart. It's going to be a while before new appearance Luna can surpass that. Assuming she does, anyway.

Red: True. Celly also wielded all 6 on her own once Luna went nuts, though, so I guess that might be why. I think the point would be to pick the 3 that fit Luna better than Celly, even if they fit Celly well enough.

Rocks I think. Maybe gems.

Thing about Honesty is that if anything Nightmare Moon was more Honest than Luna since Luna bottled up her feelings so Nightmare Moon might be able to hold onto that one.

Not so much. I wonder if they had always been jewelry, or if they were those crystal orbs back then.

Also, new Pony Game!

#94345 Enlong Mon, 13th Feb '12 9:52:43 AM from The Magitek Holyland

Exactly.

I think Magic fits Luna better because, in addition to being Friendship, it's also Magic, and Luna's definitely more one to display her magical talents than Celestia is.

According to the story book, they were gems.
