Right now! Or at least it is right now where I am. Ginny got a Pinkie Pie and a non-show pony, Lily Blossom. I was a bit disappointed that they wouldn't let me choose. We have all the main 6 and I really wanted (...erm..Ginny to have) Cheerilee.
I just found out a couple of days ago and i've only gotten Twilight Sparkle... I really want a Pinkie Pie!

PM me your address, Fred!
I now have a spare Lily Blossom and Fluttershy (Yes, yes, I am a horrible mother who feeds her children Happy Meals).
If anyone gets a Cheerilee and wants to trade, I'll mail you both or either.

Aaaaaas yooooooooou wiiiiiiiiiiiish.
Address, please?
I called after I finished the dishes and used my feminine charms on the McDonald's guy to see if I could get that one specifically. At first, I didn't think they had it, since he said they only had in the pink and the blue, #7 and #8. I looked them up online, saw #8 was her, walked down, and grabbed lunch (thanks, by the way - I just did dishes and didn't feel like dirtying any up). I was going to pop over to the Post Office right after, conveniently located right next door to McDonald's, but I didn't have your phone number in my phone like I thought, so I couldn't ask for your address. But, I can send this either this afternoon or Saturday morning. :)

This has inspired me. We're going to get our daughter a Happy Meal of junk food tonight because of the My Little Pony toys, which she will love.
The Marketing Gods have won this one.

I just got a Cheerilee this morning from a friend, but I see Alea has got you covered : ) Which is alright, because I can just add her to my collection. I'm thinking a happy meal for dinner!
: P
It's an awesome feeling knowing I have a Pinkie Pie coming in the mail!
Update:
I now have two Cheerileees and a Rainbow Dash. The girl was really nice when I asked if I could pick out which Ponies, but they were the only ones they had.

I recently commissioned a couple of brushables for friends. A Soarin, a Cheerilee and an OC.
They'll look something like this: http://i.imgur.com/p3aEV.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The Soarin' will have a Wonderbolt suit. =)

Awesome!
I just found out my McDonald's does sell them separately, and they're actually really nice when you ask which ones they have. So far i'm only missing Rarity, Applejack, and Lily Blossom.

I apparently never outgrew my paper doll stage because when zero linked me to the new royal wedding site and I discovered I could make my own pony, I was a wee bit too excited to do just that.

Wait a second, I just realized. What is a Deadpool-pony doing with a bunch of DC ponies? That does not make sense.
Although I guess it's technically allowed.

Forgot to say this a couple days ago!
Thanks for the Cheerilee, Alea!! It arrived safe and sound and is being happily played with (I'll leave it up to your imagination as to who is doing the playing).

He's pretty meta, it's probably allowed.

On a pony-related-note, I figured I would tell this humorous story:
Today at work we noticed that a new up-and-coming search engine (http://duckduckgo.com/) had the suggestion of adding "Sonic" to my searches, and I joked to my coworkers that it was in reference to a particular "game" that certain people play with DeviantArt: namely, to search for "[YOUR NAME HERE] the Hedgehog" and look to the first drawing for what horrible Sonic fanart character you are.
After some gasps of horror and delight, we then moved on to other options. "[YOUR NAME HERE] the Pony" was the most popular, and got a bunch of hilarious offerings. Naturally, they were probably the most quality art that we saw, and my coworkers were impressed with the actual badassness of their characters. "Travis the Pony" and "Maria the Pony" were big hits, although, to be fair, those were more crossover characters than original characters. "Jeff the Pony," of course, was the source of a little too much hilarity, as apparently it is taken from a really lame creepypasta about a serial killer named Jeff that has reached memetic popularity.
Thanks for the Cheerilee, Alea!! It arrived safe and sound and is being happily played with (I'll leave it up to your imagination as to who is doing the playing).
Happy to be of service and even happier to hear she's so well-loved! :)

We got a box of hand-me-downs from a neighbour and in it was a Princess Celestia shirt! She's white, she's a unicorn, who else would she be? Ginny is totally thrilled that she's not pink.
Sorry the pic is kinda gigantic.

I believe S2 will be up after the season finale, though I may have misunderstood that part and don't feel like Googling it to see if I'm right.

I was bad and didn't wait. I torrented the 1080 of S1 and ripped the 1080s from Youtube of S2 up to the current episode. =\
With the 26 episodes of Season 1, the 26 of Season 2 and the first half of Season 3 that have already been contracted, it makes 65 total episodes either aired, finished or planned, taking it above the 64 needed for syndication. Likely the second half of Seaason 3 will be contracted between the time the second season ends and it gets closer to the start of the third. Not sure about a 4th season after that, but it's entirely possible if the first half of S3 goes well.

I got a Pinkie Pie in the mail today!
Plus, making it even better, I got a super awesome drawing of Pinkie Pie!
That was surprisingly well done and a lot of fun to watch.

I want you guys to know that my brain sees the title of this thread and, every time, reads it as "MLP: FML". Which I find appropriate, to a degree.

You know, I just watched some clips of G1 MLP. It's better than people give it credit for.
And of course.... the season finale was. Freakin. Awesome.
That song. The villain. Scratch's appearance. Luna's. All the little things about it.
Also...
>In musical terms, a cadence is basically a part of the music where the melody or rhythm indicate the end of a musical phrase or song. There's also such a thing as a false or deceptive cadence, which is when the music seems to be building up to a cadence, but then suddenly it keeps going.
>In the song This Day Aria, all of the fake Cadence's parts end in a false cadence, while all of the real Cadence's parts end in an authentic cadence.

For those who haven't notices, Season 2 is now streaming on Netflix.
... and I just saw the episode where, in a bowling alley, there are Pony versions of the cast of The Big Lebowski. AWESOME.

And because I can, here's my 2-year-old daughter happily playing with her Ponies.
I have no idea who or what "Dumpy" is that she's looking for at the end.
