    Something in the works? Maybe?

    A thestral, a siren, a zebra, a dragon, a changeling, a kirin, three unicorns, three pegasi, three earth ponies, and three alicorns all walk into a bar.

    They then get kicked out because that's way too many characters with "primary/secondary protagonist" billing for one story.

    [Snippet] The Ponyville Numbers Station

    Sunset Shimmer set about unpacking her things.

nah, applejack is there. I know I saw an apple.

I can definitely see how some personality traits might have been reshuffled, though it's possible that the order went from ponies to Galaxy Girls rather than the other way around. I wouldn't be surprised if some of Lauren's other G1-inspired character ideas were used to create these girls.

Pluto's very Rainbow Dash, and Saturn's very Rarity.

I still wish this was a thing. :/

Lauren tends to use certain stereotypes with her female characters, as is evident in Them's Fightin' Herds.

3504764 Indeed, and same here. Would be interesting to see where this would go.
