Recently I was introduced to a new website in Brony.com. I’ll be honest and tell you that it’s the name of the website that caught my attention.Β The second thing that caught my eye is the awesome Rainbow Dash backpack that is exclusive to their website.
I was offered aΒ chance to check out the backpackΒ along withΒ few other items andΒ when the packages came, it felt like a My Little Pony Christmas! The backpack isn’tΒ small and child-sized like I had first thought. It’s a full-sized backpack and capable of carrying a regular pile of school supplies. The details make it stand out wherever you chose to wear it.
One of my friends remarked that Rainbow Dash’s head looks like he is trying to eat my ear when I’m wearing it. The legs/arms, wings, mane, and tail are also fun details that really make this stand out amongst my other bags. I could easily see this as a travel buddy pillowΒ with the right objects packed inside of it (PJs would be my first suggestion).
Another item was happy to try on was a Rainbow Dash bathrobe. The material is super soft and feels like heaven after a shower. I love that it’s black and has neon colored thread for the details (eyes, wings, and cutie-mark). The head is also adorned with Rainbow Dash’s main and is a soft towel-like fabric.
In addition to these fun items, the website also carries a range of t-shirts and accessories. My favorite shirt is a black one with Rainbow Dash (do you see a theme here yet?) that says “Simply Awesome” on it. It’s not an adult sized shirt, but I was able to comfortably fit into a junior’s large. The shirt goes well with the Rainbow Dash seatbeltΒ belt.

To get the party started, I’ll get us started and tell you my favorite pony is Rainbow Dash (big surprise right?). I love her attitude and her colors.
I love Twilight Sparkle- she’s a bookworm, just like me, and doesn’t always get it right. That backpack is seriously awesome!
Twilight Sparkle!
(who my kids call “purple smart”)
My favorite pony has to be Twilight Sparkle. That episode that starts with her making a checklist for everything she needs to make checklists? …yeah >.>
My favorites is Fluttershy…. she’s so adorbs.
D’oh… “favorite”.
Favourite pony? Doctor Hooves, of course!
Dr Whoves (no explanation required)
DJ Pon-3! <3 the sunglasses!
Of course it’s Rainbow Dash. I want her hair π
Twilight Sparkle – my husband says that’s me as a pony due to the academic obsessiveness and insecurities. (And he and my daughter both love Rainbow Dash; he even has a Dash on his desk at work!)
My favorite is apple jack. I love her accent. π
Applejack because she’s got that Southern accent and she’s bad ass.
rainbow dash of course! she’s sassy.
I love Fluttershy. She reminds me of me until I broke out of my shell and became a Pinkie Pie.
My favorite pony is Zecora…does she count? I also like Nightmare Moon. My 7 year old daughter (who I’d give ALL THE PONY STUFFS to) loves Rainbow Dash. The highlight of her year so far has been meeting the voice of Twilight Sparkle at Megacon.
My favorite pony is Pinkie Pie! Manic Cheerfulness ftw!
Applejack is my favorite – she’s sweet & sassy, and her dog has an amazingly wonderful name. (Seriously, my name just doesn’t come up that often!)
Twilight sparkle, but my daughter loves Rainbow dash best.
Princess Celestia
Also Rainbow Dash!
Of the Mane Six I love Applejack. Lyra is my favortie background pony – she reminds me of Medley from my childhood, a pony I always wanted.
It’s a toss up for me between the spunky Rainbow Dash and the down-to-earth hard working wholesomeness of Applejack.
Fluttershy, but my son loves Rainbow Dash
My fave is Rarity…but I love them all! Squee! π
I like Pinkie Pie for her slightly insane, gonzo quality. But my daughter loves Rainbow Dash because rainbows and wings, duh!
all of them?
My daughter votes for Fluttershy! And then the list goes on and on. How does one just pick one?
My daughter loves Princess Celestia. My son loves Rainbow Dash. My favorite is Fluttershy because I love animals!
Fluttershy! She’s so introverted (like me), quiet and wanting to make peace everywhere, but when it comes down to the wire, she’s no pushover.
Twilight Sparkle for me!
Personally i love Applejack. Might be my southerness or work ethic that i see in her. Who knows?
Pinkie Pie wins for her fourth-wall decimating powers.
My favorite pony is Twilight Sparkle, because she’s bookish and has trouble making friends.
My favorite pony is trixie she adds a little variety to the show where every other pony is obviously good
Fluttershy. She’s so cute and dainty. And shy. π
My son’s favorite pony is Twilight Sparkle, I think. Huge brony in training. π
Definitely Applejack!
aw dude it is totally Rainbow Dash. Her snark and enthusiasm makes the show joyful when my 5 yr old watches it.
Spike is my favorite pony π
Apple Jack!!
One daughter and I like Twilight Sparkle, the other daughter likes Princess Celestia, and my son (after much thought) likes both Rainbow Dash and Derpy. π
Fluttershy here. My daughter is in her late teens and I’m entering for her. π
My daughter loves Princess Luna, even in her Nightmare Moon persona. We love her strength and vulnerability.
My favorite pony is Princess Luna <3 .
apple jack yo!
It’s just hard to pick one! I am more like Twilight Sparkle as she is a geek and nerd like most who reads GeekDad and GeekMom. The other Mane 6 ponies are fun to watch!
While I really do love just about everypony(hehe) on the show, I feel a special bond with Fluttershy. I understand how it feels to be soft spoken when your friends are very gregarious. I also love how she is very responsible for such a large menagerie of animals– nobody goes hungry around Fluttershy. She truly is the element of kindness and that’s one of the most rare things one can find anymore. I love how she learns that being a bully is simply not a good way to behave around people and she uses her ability to be kind to also be firm and stand her ground, even against a dragon.
Mine is Photo Finish due to the fact that she is a fashion photographer. lol
My favorite pony has always been Waterfire. She’s a reader (like me) and she had such distinct coloring when I saw her in the store, since she isn’t your standard pastel blue, but more of a teal with red-orange mane and tail. I really geeked out when I saw she was actually in the cartoon.
Fluttershy!!
I absolutely love Fluttershy! She is adorable and shyness is always a big hit with me. :3
