UK PonyCONLINE PlushieCon Online
Group Pictures, Statistics and some general info.

Here are the results for PlushieCon Online at the UK PonyCONLINE on June 13th, 2020!

First, without any further ado, the total number of plushies: 529 plushies were submitted by 32 owners! Twilightsmile

Here is a downsized preview image in 900 * 507 pixels. Clicking on this image will take you to the large-sized image - caution, the full size means 9.000 * 5.062 pixels with 6,03 MB :

Creating this virtual PlushieCon picture was a bit like playing Tetris... didn't completely fit, there are some gaps left. I had to downsize most of the images sent to us to fit them all in one single picture, and I couldn't make the picture any larger because my old computer hardware can't handle more, it just would make the software crash because of too few RAM.

So, which pictures did I use? I used plushie group pictures when sent in - in most cases, that is; there are one or two registrations where I chose single plush pictures instead because they showed the plushies better. Some registrations consisted of just one plushie anyway. - And I will confess: there are way more than 529 plushies on this "mass picture", the total number should be around 900 or more. How so? Well, to make it fit, I had some gaps left on the lower end of the picture, this didn't look nice - so I added pictures of not counted plushies that were submitted to us to close these gaps, to make a neat whole picture. I'll explain later on. Besides, some plushies are to be seen on more than one picture, if sometimes only in the background.

I reckon many people are interested in how many plushies of which character are present, right? I'll put the detailed list into the spoiler box, just click on it to open it and see the detailed list. Names without a number behind them mean: this character was present only once.

Alright... earlier, I wrote something about uncounted plushies. There have been two submissions that contained of photos only, but without giving us a checklist of which plushies should be on them. The first is a submission of roughly about 300 (yes, that's right: three hundred!) plushies, the owner doesn't have a list of all his plushies on his own. Counting them out on our own just by the pictures is practically impossible, and in his collection, there are many non-MLP plushies, too. But why rejecting these pictures instead of showing them? Such a massive plush collection needs to be seen by the world Cheerilee

So we decided to use and show the pictures, just treat the plushies on them as "uncounted" - that means they don't appear in the statistics. - The second registration was a picture we got linked from Twitter. Again, there was no list of the plushies submitted with the registration. I tried to count them on my own since this time, there aren't that much plushies, but had to find soon enough that there are several characters I don't know the names of. Maybe they are mascots that I don't recognize, maybe they are personal OCs, maybe they are even show characters that I don't recognize from the picture (yes, shame on me, I know... Fluttershysad

)... why yes, I could have contacted the owner, but you see, I just didn't find the time. Besides, this registration was made after the official end of the registration on June 6th anyway, so I decided to treat the plushies on this picture as uncounted, too Shrugbrae

- For the final picture: it's from none other than Bexi, your UK PonyCONLINE host this weekend, herself Salute

As a long-time MLP fan and collector, she doesn't have just G4 (FiM) plushies but G1 (the big ones) and G2 (the little beanies) plushies as well. Truth is, she offered to give me the names (because I'm not much of an expert for the older generations), but since I had to prepare everything in advance (because of my real life job), and both she and I had been VERY busy the last days before UK PonyCONLINE, I decided to treat these plushies as uncounted, too. - In the list above, you find two other counted G3 plushies: they are on a picture together with G4 characters, so it was fairly easy to figure out.

So, here's the second group picture, this time of the uncounted plushies. Clicking on the preview picture gets you to the large-sized one: this time, it's 4.500 * 2.532 pixels and 1,41 MB of file size.

That's all for the written and, as of now, downloadable part of PlushieCon Online at UK PonyCONLINE on June 13th, 2020 Salute

A recording of the stream itself should become available pretty soon, I'll post it as a reply here as soon as it is available.

For now, thank you all for your interest, for watching, reading and submitting your plushie pictures! Fsgrin

... PS: if someone wonders why I "abuse" a forum for a publication like this...
