There's a hot new toy craze in Canterlot, and young Twilight Sparkle is determined to get ahold of one to make her BBBFF's Hearth's Warming absolutely perfect.
This should have been a simple and straightforward quest, except for two things: that she waited until the last minute to do her shopping, and the intervention of a disagreeable stallion who'd rather hoard the toys to himself.
Special thanks to Yoshikage Kira for help with lore consulting and pre-reading.

Chapters (1)
Combat Mallet 40,000 is great but have you seen the mini's on BattleMace 4,000,000?
The Sparkles are wholesome, and Quibble sucks, what else is new?
I liked the business with the parade. Very old-school screwball.
The fact that you even managed to source a picture for an overly ornate gold armored pony just ::chef's kiss::
As a 40K player I love the jabs at my plastic crack and the drama of taking plastic soldiers way too seriously.
I love this so much and want a sequel where 8-Bit and Gaffer discover it's fake after Shining beats them at a bunch of games.
Howdy, hi~!
Ahhhhh I love this. Cute twily shenigans for her brother is the best. This was such a great low key comedy and you really captured all the variance in the community with this one with the different shops. Really enjoyed this one. Thanks for the read!
