I'm not kidding, that's what it's called...


It shoots rainbow lasers.


It's... er... for my daughter's Hordes of the Things army...

So I saw the thread title and said, "Wait, what?" and was confused.

And I clicked on the thread, and saw the pictures, and was enlightened. And amused.

You forgot to mention the rainbow wings in your thread title, though. Should it not be "Flying Pink Pony Rainbow Unicorn with &c"

That quibble aside, this is awesome. Your daughter is a lucky girl.

Tom Meier ROCKS.

I love how the faerie is wearing over mitts "because lasers get hot daddy."

Tim, I have to say that you, Sir, are a kickass Dad!

And, I might add , the bravest poster on LAF.  :D

Or for more complete appeal, "Flying Pink Pony Rainbow Unicorn with Magical Princess Ballerina Fairy". 'cos it's always about the princesses ...

Splendid.  What's the rest of the army like?

Thanks Everyone!

  What's the rest of the army like?

Oh, it's usually a mash-up Amazon-ish army of whatever she can find that's girlie... I made an all-girl army for my wife a couple years back - that ususally forms the most of the daughters army - whogh she adds in some elements from the newer Mythical Greek Amazon army I've been working on.

You can see a few of my elements if you snoop around my blog. There are some HERE and HERE and HERE... That'll give you an idea of what some of the elements look like.

HERE's a battle report where Amanda first rolled out her “HOTT Chick” Army – The Sapphic League of Unity and Togetherness.

I don't see why the laser gun was needed when unicorns can already blast them out of their horns, but oh well...

Love the wings, simple but chic!

That is so boss. I am feeling inspired to get working on my unicorn commander. Will probably have to sneak its way into my next elven force for Brink of Battle. Thanks again for sharing that looks like it was a lot of fun to do.

That might work nicely into a game of Fairy Meat too.

Now here's my chance to get my 3 year-old daughter into wargaming  :D

Brilliant army name!

It's fantastic to see families playing games together. It's REALLY cool to see younger kids getting into it.
