{{quote| What planet are ''you'' from?}}

''Milky Way and the Galaxy Girls'' is an original toyline mainly aimed at girls and developed by [[Lauren Faust]] of ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' fame. It's about [[Anthropomorphic Personification|girls with a planetary theme]] (known as the Girlaxy) similar to ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' and their various adventures.

The idea of the franchise came from some homemade dolls [[Lauren Faust]] made in her spare time. It's important to note that these dolls are something that Lauren is very passionate about, to the point that she is almost always trying to promote them on her official [[Deviant ART]] [http://fyre-flye.deviantart.com/ page] or on their official site. She's been trying to get an animated series based on them off the ground for years, in fact ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|Friendship is Magic]]'' may have [[What Could Have Been|never happened]] if she wasn't pitching ''Galaxy Girls'' to Hasbro in the first place.

The official website can be visited in [[Wayback Machine|archived form]] [https://web.archive.org/web/20110307114132/http://milkywayandthegalaxygirls.com/ here], and the Solar Sisterhood Blog (which includes some [[Character Blog|in-character entries]] for the Girlaxy) can be found [https://web.archive.org/web/20110927050529/http://www.milkywayandthegalaxygirls.com/solarsisterhoodblogcategory/solar-sisterhood-blog here].<ref>This isYou ancan older section ofbrowse the site,(archived) butofficial it'sshop up-to-date[https://web.

{{quote| Milky Way’s joy in life is to explore her realm, meet new friends and find adventure. While visiting our Solar System for the very first time, Milky comes across a beautiful, small planetoid. But when she touches it, it shatters into 11 pieces, releasing the villain who was imprisoned inside, the massively destructive and terrifying BLACK HOLE!!!<br />

{{quote| The last to see Pluto before her disappearance was Mars, who relayed her experience to us: {{color|green|<nowiki>“I heard a little of what she was saying to herself and I think she said– and this may not be an exact quote– but she said ‘Those &*%!* scientists can %$#@!! If they think they can *&%@# change my %$#* status, they got another &*%%# thing coming! I never wanted to be a &*%@# planet anyway, planets are &*%%#. Who needs those $%##@s anyway!’”</nowiki>}} Mars continues, {{color|green|<nowiki>“and then I think she said ‘ #@@*’ and ‘&&*%@’ and ‘##$% **&% &##@@, **@#%$$!!!!’ But really I can’t be sure.”</nowiki>}}}}

* [[Doing It for Thethe Art]]: This is clearly Lauren Faust's dream project, one that she's been working on for over five years.

{{quote| She seems like someone who would say “Don’t worry, statistics show that most people who go through a hard breakup eventually get over it with the help of counseling” and say it with such sincerity that you can’t hate her.}}

* [[Visual Pun]]: Saturn wears a lot of rings and hoops.
