Interview With Symbiote Studios CEO - Lifesize Pony Plushies, Most Popular Ponies, Future Plans, and More!

The current top dog for show-accurate My Little Pony plushies right now is Symbiote Studios here in the west. There are many companies still vying for our hard earned brony bucks, but these guys have by far the most expansive lineup, bringing on characters that have never received any plushie love out of the various licensees that have tackled the medium over the years.

They sent a mailer out a few weeks ago, and I noticed a section looking to do interviews for anyone interested, so I jumped at the opportunity! I've been very curious about how things are run there, how things have been going sales-wise, and what we might expect from the future. Their CEO, Joseph Reiter, answered pretty much all of that!

Time to learn all about Symbiote, and get hype for some very cool upcoming pony ideas they are working on. Head on down below for the full FAQ style interview!  And feel free to drop any suggestions you might have for them below in the comments.

SPOTLIGHT INTERVIEW: Fiaura Tank Girl on Fallout Equestria and Here There Be Dragons

Hello everypony!

I know it's been a little bit since we have done an interview, but you're all in for a treat with this one.

I had the chance to interview Fallout: Equestria - Dead Tree author and frequent Brony convention Community Guest Fiaura the Tank Girl. The interview covers what she has done in the fandom, how things have been going on Fallout: Equestria - Dead Tree, and what else she's been working on over the past year or so.

The answer will probably surprise you, and probably net you a nice little discount on something pretty fun.

So be sure to check out the full interview after the break!
