The My Little Pony franchise not only appeals to the young girls that the toy line is primarily marketed to, but has drawn a cult following of teenagers and even adults that remember the TV series, specials and films dating back to the 1980s.

In this series, Princess Celestia sends her star pupil, the bookish unicorn Twilight Sparkle, to Ponyville to improve her socialisation skills. Twilight quickly makes five new four-legged friends: Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Rarity. Each instilled with the respective spirits of magic, honesty, loyalty, laughter, kindness and generosity, the animals learn that by working together they can achieve the most important element of all: harmony.
