The Legal Stuff

I am, of course, perfectly aware of what happened to that other promising Pony Magic set. They got taken down after Hasbro's legal department defended their trademarks as required by law in this country. The thing is, the Shards guys actively tried to print paper cards that were reasonable facsimiles of real Magic cards. They even distributed them at a major gaming event at which real Magic cards were being sold by licensed vendors. Sounds like a recipe for copyright infringement if I've ever heard one.

If you want to enjoy this set, do everyone a favor and print out low-quality (black-and-white is cheaper, too!) copies of the cards on standard printer paper, cut them out, then place them in penny sleeves, preferably with real Magic cards as backing to give them some heft. It's exactly what I do with my play-test group, and it's no different than the process one uses when they print out a bunch of Tarmogoyf proxies for their Modern deck.

Don't print them on card stock.

Don't try to pass them off as real cards. They're not.

Don't try to sell them. They're not yours to sell.

Basically, don't do anything with these other than enjoy them by yourself or with a small group of friends, in a 100% noncommercial way. Thanks in advance for that.

All the card images should be from MLPWiki, which takes all its images from screen-captures of the show anyway.
