A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.
All of the usual forum rules
apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

I will be able to watch this weekend, so I want to share that with you guys.

Yeah, saw that too. Um not sure if it's it, but I found this bit in the year's first quarter report.
First quarter 2014 net revenues in the Boys category increased 2% to $247.8 million behind growth in NERF and Marvel products, partially offset by continued year-over-year declines in BEYBLADE. Games category revenues declined 4% in the quarter. Franchise Brands MAGIC: THE GATHERING and MONOPOLY increased revenues in the quarter. Additionally, revenues grew in several Games Mega Brands, while Action Battling games and DUEL MASTERS, a trading card game, experienced a decline in revenues. The Girls category grew 21% in the first quarter 2014. MY LITTLE PONY, MY LITTLE PONY EQUESTRIA GIRLS and NERF REBELLE contributed to the continued strong growth in the category.

Not quite, but it at least implies it's doing well.
Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectThe nerf "rebelle" line kinda bugs me. Why do we need designated girl guns? :l

Funny how Transformers didn't get a mention, but MTG is still as cardboard cracky as ever even after the uproar over the simplification of the stack rulings in combat phase.

Some girls want more streamlined blasters or stuff that isn't Bright Yellow or Orange or Blue. The only thing I really have an issue with is that the decorative darts are a waste of money, real Nerfers who use stock ammo won't use such tattoo'd darts, they'd use vanilla Elite streamlines. Also the Wildshot/Sweet Revenge Revolver is actually more ergonomic than its "brother" blaster in the Zombie Strike lineup.

The three finest things in life are to splat your enemies, drive them from their turf, and hear their lamentations as their rank falls!There's a link on the MLP recap page that states season 5 was confirmed in a Q&A session. Can't check the link now, though.
EDIT: Here we go.

Reaction Image RepositoryI can't believe Monopoly is doing well, of all things.
Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectI'm just disappointed that they failed to use the obvious "Monopony" pun for the MLP version.
Reaction Image RepositoryThere's one where the properties are all real-life brands. That's something.
Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectYeah I know that it's highly likely, but I'm a paranoid mass of anxiety regarding any uncertainty.
That link bit wasn't full official confirmation, just something making it very very likely. Since the very next line after saying they were in MLP season 5, was LPS season 2. Which is the season that just ended, so one of those was a misspeak.
But yeah I know there is almsot no chance they aren't going to. But it's still a non-0 chance. Also, why stop there? Don't stop at some random number, stop when the quality begins to suffer, which given this has been the best season overall so far, is not happening yet.
But yes spinoffs would be nice
With Monopoly you could attach it to any popular franchise or property and you wouldn't have to change the rules very much. That's why you get so many variations.
Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectDidn't the bows predate the Hunger Games movie?
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's Play

Which still equals a leak being available ahead of time. Whether it's the Hub, or Google, or Itunes screwing up, the result is the same.
