Depiction in the series[]

Season one[]

Twinkleshine and Lemon Hearts disappointed S1E1 — Twinkleshine in Friendship is Magic, part 1.

Twinkleshine appears next to "Piña Colada" in both versions of the My Little Pony theme song. In the first version, they appear on the left side of the scene with Twinkleshine to the left. In the second version, they are on the train platform with Twinkleshine on the right. They are also briefly next to each other at town hall in Friendship is Magic, part 1 and at the bowling alley in The Cutie Pox.

Twinkleshine appears in over half of the season one episodes as a background pony. Her first appearance is in Friendship is Magic, part 1, where she, Lemon Hearts, and Minuette meet Twilight Sparkle in Canterlot while carrying presents on their backs. She invites Twilight to Moon Dancer's get-together, but Twilight declines on the grounds that she has "a lot of studying to catch up on." Twinkleshine expresses her exasperation behind Twilight's back and chides her for showing more interest in books than friends. She next appears in the surprise party that Pinkie Pie throws for Twilight.

Merchandise[]

Twinkleshine Playful Pony — Twinkleshine in Playful Ponies form.

A unicorn pony named Twinkleshine was released as both a mystery pack figurine and a Playful Ponies toy in 2010. The toys share the character's cutie mark and eye color, and the mystery pack toy—using Twilight Sparkle's mold—shares the mane color except for the darker streak. The Playful Ponies toy, however, features rosy red hair and is based on Rarity's model. Both toys' coat colors are pink in contrast to the character's off-white coat, but Twinkleshine's identity is confirmed by Gameloft's mobile game, Enterplay's collectible card game, and Amending Fences. According to the back of the European mystery pack collector card, Twinkleshine "loves playing games." The front of the card depicts Twinkleshine standing in Canterlot.^[6] According to the European Playful Ponies package, Twinkleshine "loves the movies". The U.S. Playful Ponies package has a longer description and reads, "TWINKLESHINE dreams about being a famous movie star. Drama. Comedy. Action. She loves it all!"^[7] She shares her movie interest(s) with Juniper Montage. A second mini-figure toy and collector card pair of Twinkle Shine[sic] is included in the nineteenth wave of mystery packs.

Enterplay collectible card game card α #134 U, Critter Cuisine, attributes to Amethyst Star and Twinkleshine the respective quotes "But ferrets are carnivorous!" and "Shhh, maybe they don't know that yet!" In the game's set Rock N Rave, Twinkleshine is named on her card #3 F, which gives her the description "Nopony at Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns took better notes than Twilight Sparkle, but Twinkleshine was no slouch!" In the game's expansion set Absolute Discord, Twinkleshine is named on her card #51 C, which gives her the description "Studying with Twilight Sparkle before her big move to Ponyville helped Twinkleshine look at magic in all new ways!"
