A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.

I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

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.

I'm hoping it doesn't leak unless it gets to You Tube quickly.

[up][up]It no doubt will, but you'll have to be quick before they pull it off.

Either way I just want this season to be over with already.

It's extremely likely, Seraphem. G4 ain't going away anytime soon, and why not? It's their biggest success in pony since G1.

If we do get another season, I hope it'll be the last. Then they could work on a possible spinoff.

Someone search EQD, I seem to recall some fianancial statement from Hasbro implying they've already paid for Season Five.

[up] [up] 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.

The nerf "rebelle" line kinda bugs me. Why do we need designated girl guns? :l

I seen 'em. Most of them are bow-shaped or have bow-like attachments because Hunger Games apparently.

Ew Beyblade. I get better gasing class tops from the National Heritage Mueseum's souvenir shop, and can make better ones by hand with some epoxy putty, spare parts, and patience.

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.

[up][up]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.

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.

I can't believe Monopoly is doing well, of all things.

I'm just disappointed that they failed to use the obvious "Monopony" pun for the MLP version.

There's one where the properties are all real-life brands. That's something.

Monopoly is the most well known of the board games so of course it's still successful. It's a shame that MLP isn't being attached to a better game like Settlers or maybe even a Ticket to Ride.

What's so bad about Monopoly other than vast economy issues?

#69423: May 5th 2014 at 8:22:06 AM

Yeah 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.

Didn't the bows predate the Hunger Games movie?
