New official plushes that should appear at Target at the end of July. Getting closer, Hasbro, but you still have more work to do before I'm touching one.

None of those characters need a defense force except Celestia, who is continuously bombarded with slander.

Eh, DrForester is right, she doesn't need one. The Princess of the Night can take care of herself. Besides, we know she's not evil, because we've already seen her evil side. It got harmony'd. |

Tyrant-sun goddess Celestia could use a good harmonying. No doubt her innate evil kept her from using the elements of harmony herself. |

It is interesting why she can't anymore. Maybe you need at least two ponies embodying half of the elements each to use them? So, which three did Celestia have?

Show indicated she used all 6 to defeat NMM the first time, I've always thought that she could have used them again to defeat NMM again, but that would not have gotten Luna back. We saw the the elements only defeated NMM, but Luna herself had to accept forgiveness and humility. Celestia handing her flank to her again probably would have just made her more bitter. Celestia wanted her sister back, so she gave up the elements so someone else could defeat her.

Now, if the elements are that powerful one would think that if Celestia could use them, she'd have them in that vault for quick access. But she didn't. Instead she did the only thing she could have, attempt to repower the elements with a new spark of friendship. Which is where Twilight Sparkle and Celestia's mad gamble comes in. So many things could have gone wrong with that, but Celestia trusted her student to get it right, even if Celestia had to be really cryptic about it so she wouldn't contaminate any friendships that were formed. They had to be genuine, not just some goal for Twilight, otherwise, the elements wouldn't trigger at all. It really was a pretty desperate plan, but it paid off, in spades. Not only did she get her sister back, but when discord returned, well, the Mane Six were sort of ready to face him. Someone should probably teach Twilight a spell to summon the elements for extreme emergencies, though... |

So I ended up downloading Colors 3D to see if it could help me draw better, ended up making this in a few hours (based on Friendship is Witchcraft):

Celestia losing the elements could also simply have been a gradual thing. The one element that keeps them all together is Magic/Friendship. So... what happens if the sole wielder becomes distant and loses her friends... possibly just to time? Sure, Celestia has magic to spare, but friendship? Not so much. She's the goddess-ruler of the world, more or less. You don't get many true friends in that kind of position of power. A lot of ponies want to stay friendly with you, yes, but actual friendship? That's a problem. So, maybe Celestia did still have Honesty, Kindness, Laughter, Generosity, and Loyalty, she has shown all of these traits during the first two seasons, but she lost the spark a long, long time ago. Which actually would explain why Magic didn't even have a stone, it was just... gone. Twilight pooled her own magic with the magic of friendship and made the last element reappear, but in a new form. The Magic of Friendship instead of just power magic power. That's why the elements cured Luna rather than banish her again. It was a similar, but different spell. One Celestia herself couldn't do. And yes, I am aware we're discussing magic superweapons for ponies right now. |

![]() Why is it so hard to make toys that look like the show. The fans, using store bought material, has made shit that puts Hasbro to immense shame. I think they have gotten so used to decades of little girls buying anything they make that they dont see the point in actually making decent toys. They look like Chinese knock offs, but they dont care cuz the millions of little girls will buy them anyway. The hair kills it for me. They went all out to get everything else to at least look somewhat like the show, and then they ruined it with the hair for some reason. |

Because it's more expensive to make them look more show accurate. The fanmade ones are done by hand whereas the hasbro ones are mass manufactured off shore. Also, little girls (their target demographic) don't care if the dolls don't look perfectly like the show characters (imagination and all that jazz).
