We told you about the imminent sale of the fat pony figurines from Kate Beaton's "Hark! A Vagrant" webcomic back at Emerald City Comic Con last weekend, and now the moment has arrived, and a small army of ponies stand waiting for you to take them home at Beaton's Topatoco store...

Fans of Kate Beaton's "Hark! A Vagrant" -- who created one of the longest lines at the Emerald City Comic Convention throughout the day yesterday -- got an unexpected treat at the booth of the popular webcomic artist: Fat pony statues. Inspired by her recurring Shetland pony comics, the tiny figures are hand sculpted by Nikki Malki (wife of "Wondermark" creator David Malki), an
