Hi! I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but it's worth a go 😅 I found this figure of Britannia today whilst 2nd hand shopping (a terrible shame I know!) And wondered if you knew anything about it? I haven't been able to find any photos or information so far 😓 Regardless, she's a really lovely and detailed figure and I cant wait to display her!

*creaking noises as blog comes back to life*

Sorry about the late reply! And strictly speaking I can’t say for 100% on behalf of the current management of the peeps in charge of the BUCK Con, but it does look pretty spot on as official con merch, possibly from the charity auction! We can’t cast aspersions on whom took it to a charity shop, but glad to see it’s in capable hands/hooves (very good) and will get many years of love and handed down through generations to come!

Also Happy Holidays Everyone!

An Official Announcement Regarding The Blog

Hey guys. Been a while, hasn’t it?

I’m not going to beat about the bush here, because I’m sure most of you already know what this post is about, and what I’m going to say, so I’m just going to go ahead and say it.

We’re on hiatus, long-term.

There are multiple reasons for this, though chief among them would be that, collectively, the team as a whole doesn’t have the time, energy, or motivation to keep going any more.

I won’t prattle on about the various issues we’ve faced. The folks that have followed us closely over the years know what we’ve faced, and know how difficult it’s been.

Are we giving up? Well, no… not entirely. But, well, we’re not going to be putting up any new content here any time soon. In time, we might try something new. But for now, we’re letting things settle. Perhaps the occasional little bit here and there, if something comes up, but for the time being, we’re letting things rest.

So with that said, I’d like to offer our most heartfelt thanks to you, the readers. Without your constant support, admiration, compliments, critiques, encouragement, and so on, we wouldn’t have ever come as far as we did, or created as compelling a story as we had here. We love all of you for sticking by us all this time and keeping us going as long as you all did.

If there’s one last thing to add, it’s that we’re all still around and active, one way or another, in our own ways. You’ve not seen the last of us yet… and we may toss up a few interesting bits and pieces here in months to come, if they’re related to our favourite red-headed unicorn.

That’s it, more or less though. Thank you all for reading, and keep an eye out.

With all of our thanks,

(~Sketchy, on behalf of)

~The Ask Britannia Team

BUCK 2016 to be held at EventCity, Manchester with special guest Daniel Ingram!

A big hello to everyone from BUCK Towers! We’ve now had three hugely successful conventions in England, including the Summer Sun Celebration, one of the biggest brony music events on the calendar.

We’re proud to announce our fourth convention to be held on the 9th and 10th of April 2016 at EventCity, Manchester!

Not only that, but attending as special guest will be composer Daniel Ingram, best known for writing our favourite songs from My Little Pony, but also his work on countless other television shows.
Daniel will be sharing not only his musical talents, but his insights on musical production and the industry – it’s the perfect time for everyone interested in music to come along and join in!

We’ve got a history of seeking out cool venues to host our parties at, including world famous concert halls, and enormous renovated train stations. This year, at EventCity, we’ve got a ‘magic box’ on Phoenix Way, to be filled with as much madness as we can muster.
It’s right next door to the Trafford Centre (the largest shopping centre in the UK), hotels, train links, and Manchester International Airport.

Stay tuned for more information from us, including ticket availability, panels, events, and other activities we’re setting up to make BUCK 2016 the most memorable yet.

Catch us on our website or at facebook for the latest details!

BUCK Towers over and out!

((Mods: Sorry we’re a little late to the party, chaps and chapesses. We’ve been a little busy at the polling booths/ out earning a wage to be able to make sure we do our civic duty as regards to posting pony pictures on tumblr.

((Mods: Sorry we’re a little late to the party, chaps and chapesses. We’ve been a little busy at the polling booths/ out earning a wage to be able to make sure we do our civic duty as regards to posting pony pictures on tumblr.

Still, here we are, and with 3 Hours Until Polling Stations Close on the 2015 UK General Election we urge all our British readership who haven’t already done so to go out and cast their vote!

Now Britannia here is impartial on the matter (Being an Equestrian citizen and therefore not eligible to vote, herself) but she encourages those that can to go out and do their democratic duty! (or else the changelings win)

Of course participating in such a thing is not always up everyone’s street and deciding whose box you’d be willing to tick can be rather a daunting (or simply off-putting) prospect for many. If you find yourself in such a position at this late stage then here is a wonderful appeal from Mr. brainedbysaucepans​ about how no matter who you vote for, the important thing is to make your voice heard!
