“What?! How is that possible?”

“… I think you’re right.”

Okay, but… is the top right supposed to be Rainbow Dash? The rest of them match the colour schemes and make sense… but RD?
Yeah, top right is supposed to be RD. Originally she was gonna be in colors/armor that matched her coat coloring, but I didn’t like how that looked. So instead I put her in colors meant to evoke the Wonderbolts’ uniforms. There wasn’t an option for rainbow hair, either, quite sadly, so she got white hair since white reflects all wavelengths of visible light.

It’s a fun, sweet movie! Dysto and I happened across the subsequent t.v. series first, as it happened—it comes on right after Ninja Turtles on Nick, and that’s how we started watching it. Then we went and rented the actual movie, which is better than the show.
Show’s not bad, though. :)
BrOTP.
