If you're a fan of Sins of a Solar Empire, you may have seen the game achievement "Space Ponies" in the achievements list. The origin of the pony is a long tale to tell. Suffice it to say, it's a joke from early in the Sins of a Solar Empire beta test that grew and took on a life of it's own, and became a bit of a forum favorite joke.
Turns out that one of the guys in the Sins community makes custom embroidered hats. PoorManDSO (www.darkstaroutpost.com) had a few of the hats made up and sent them to us here at Stardock. Of course, being the goofballs that we are, we decided that there needed to be some photo proof of the hats....

A close-in shot of the hat...
So thanks to PoorManDSO for the hat! Word has it that while just the pink is available, more colors are coming in the future!
