Given this is a big 20 minute specials where there any notable G4 references/easter eggs?

The second special we were supposed to get was so crazy and so amazing at the same time. Comet was back again, Onyx was back again, Hitch made his best corny joke yet, Posey was being beautifully unlikable, Sunny was being peak adorable with her innocence, but the absolute star of the show was Allura. She was hilarious in every scene, relatable in every scene, and the very slow steps they were trying to make with her character progression are impossible to not love. She is officially best villain, I’m fully convinced now.

I was not expecting another fully animated episode nor was I expecting a TattleTail crossover but I’ll take it.

Glad to see Allura’s cold heart defrosting ever so slightly. Also, when did she get a phone?

All the unreleased MLP TYT animatronics apparently have been taken down by copyright

I know you meant to say animatics, but I’ve also heard that news too. What now?

Looks like we’ll still be getting the material one way or the other:

Doc Anubis was always prepared for this, thus why there’s always been a list of torrents in the event of anything being taken down.

Mmmm, looks like he’s well aware of how companies hate preservation.

Tsk tsk tsk.
Luckily its hard to completely erase something from the net with all the secret sites.

What would’ve been the hundredth episode of TYT (not counting specials) did not disappoint, really cool to have the Hopalottas getting development right after their debut. Impressed by the job they did in getting me to feel for them. And Hitch got to shine too, the icing on the cake!

China is still getting merch, though. I’m not sure if any will be released elsewhere.

I know that the toy line has not been discontinued yet, just meant official animated media. And we also could be getting more licensed merch domestically with how it’s recently been seeing a boost in popularity according to Hasbro.

If there’s any episode I wish was fully animated, it’d be this one.
Also while iirc we know material was being worked on at least as late as episode 35, I think this was the last episode we already knew had a full animatic (via the writer’s implication).
I know it’s not running the full season, but I hope it goes a little longer. It’s been fun getting these.

This one was bonkers, good to have some classic wild fun. Freaking Senor Butterscotch in this one, man.

This animatic was a fun one, I really would have loved to have seen this one fully animated.
Posey once again gets the short end of the thorny stick, though the flying umbrella was pretty neat.
Izzy’s creativity magic can turn assorted junk into kaiju, this would mark the third time Maretime Bay’s been menaced by a giant thing after the pega bunny and Sprout’s robot.
The fake out with Señor Butterscotch “dying” seemed unnecessary. He is made out junk afterall, he can be rebuilt.
