So, Twilight is Ben 10?

Rarely has the “picture for breezies” tag been so appropriate!

I would’ve wanted to see how Twilight, Rainbow, and Fluttershy’s Alicorn/Pegasus wings changed into Breezie wings…
 
Going from feathered to fairy-like? I would’ve loved to see how Twilight’s Alicorn magic did that!

@PonyPon  
“Occurred at the beginning”? You mean something that would otherwise be decried as “blatant new toy shilling” gets judged more favorably if it happens before the halfway mark of an episode?
 
As for “meld[ing] perfectly with the established conflict”, it had already been established earlier in the episode that the number of Breezies in a group affected how fast the supporting breeze could be; how does generating a half-dozen pseudo-Breezies to allow for faster travel not meld perfectly with the established conflict, or at least meld better than giving Rarity butterfly wings?
 
And I don’t honestly see how you can claim a Breezie-fied Mane 6 is a blatant toy plug, and not see how a rock band CMC could be construed as such.
 
@Psyga315  
Um, my comment was referring to the Breezification of the Mane 6, depicted above, not the sudden introduction of Twilight’s brother and best babysitter ever in “A Canterlot Wedding”.

…this entire argument is moot, considering most of the periphery demographic doesn’t buy the “girlier” of the toys, that is, the ones with combable hair and tails. It’s doubly moot with the fact that the only G4 Breezie toy is Seabreeze himself, who comes with Fluttershy.
 
Besides, “to sell toys” is Hasbro’s motto, has been since the beginning, will be until the end. And, if they had mini-figurines of the Breezies akin to the mini figure sets, I, for one, would get ‘em.
 
…right after I get Trixie, Chrysalis, and Flutterbat. C’mon, Hasbro, chop chop!

One occurred at the beginning and melded perfectly with the established conflict, and the other I don’t really get how that’s an example.

@Background Pony #C684  
Because at least they didn’t pull new characters with relations that one would think would be better written into the backstory out of their asses.

@Background Pony #C684  
Her parents? That was instantaneous, no time to realize what was going on, compared to this and the Family Guy scene. I suppose it might not’ve been pleasant, of course.

I don’t really see how this is more blatant than flutterpony Rarity or the CMC as a rock trio.

“unintentionally hilarious description” needs to be a tag.
 
@Ichijoe  
I don’t think anything would have prevented her from using the “flutterpony” spell on another pony in previous seasons; it just took so much out of her to perform it on Rarity that she looked for a simpler spell for herself, AJ, and Pinkie.
 
@BK_Leonidas  
Let me know when and where I can by a Breezieshy.
 
@kassarc16  
I’m sure that was your thought during Twilight’s flashback in “The Cutie Mark Chronicles” too, right?

When I saw this, all I could think of was the carriage transformation in Family Guy’s telling of Cinderella…
 
Bodily transformation has to be painful, even by magic.

@Psyga315  
I will differ in that S3’s beginning was that, but maybe that was just my personal point.

@BK_Leonidas  
Season 2 Finale is what many people say is the point where subtlety died.

AJ’s mane and tail rubber band seems to be the part of them.

@richfiles  
People actually do get scared by transformation scenes.
 
It’s not unlike Chrysalis’ transformation, for one.

Who added the tag “Nightmare Fuel” to this. Just because you don’t like the episode, doesn’t mean you get to abuse the tags.
 
Grow up people… /)_-

@requiem-dirge  
Apparently they lost their subtly along the way.

@Psyga315  
No one said anything about Twilight not learning from “Bats!”, possibly even the opposite actually.

@Jerkface  
I dunno. People are either bitching that Twily hasn’t learned from Bats or something about a marketing ploy.

Wait why is this drama now?

@Techy Pony  
Revive the dead?

@zralf  
…vampire fruit bat breezie…

YOU ARE NOW MY SLAVES, YOUR BODIES ARE MINE TO COMMAND.

@OneOverTwo  
yeah, i thought “hey, this is like, the improved version of the bats spell” when i saw it.

@BK_Leonidas  
…welcome to Hasbro fiction, where rule #1 is TO SELL TOYS.
