Hi Everyone!

Hasbro has asked that I compile questions for their Q & A session during their presentation at this year's MLP Fair. Please ask your questions below. :) They will be sent in on MONDAY.

Thanks!
Summer

fyi these are the ones I asked on facebook
Why is Applejack left out of group sets (like the upcoming gothic set)? When will we see new (non Mane 6) brushables? Will the brushables that are currently set to come with EqG dolls be available separately? If not, why not?
Will the show continue to utilize the Two Sisters' castle now that Twilight has her own?
Will we see any more griffins? I loved seeing them in the Equestria Games
since Maneiac and Humdrum are exclusives now, does this mean we might get another Power Ponies episode in Season 5?

Here's my questions:  ^.^
Will there be any new boy brushables that will be joining the toyline in the near future?
Is there a possibility of sea ponies joining the G4 line?

Oooo, this sounds awesome. x3

-Will there be any new pony races?
-Are you gonna make the Element of Harmony necklaces for brushable mane 6?
-Will we be getting any non-EQG spinoffs?
-Any plans to remake G1s in G4 form?
-Fluttershy and Twilight's blindbag molds were updated to look more accurate, but now the other mane 4 look less accurate compared to them. Will you update their molds too?

Loving Roogna's questions! I want to echo all of them just about :P Especially whether we will see other non main 6 ponies within the main line and within the fashion style line?

Also curious as to why we are seeing such a focus on blind bag/mini figs/moulded hair ponies [this includes the new POP line]. These lines seem to get more characters and more imagination than the main line. Do Hasbro see the pony line moving towards this style of toy rather than the traditional pony with brushable hair that we know and love? [and yeah...pretty sure that one wont be answered lol].

My questions are pretty much the same as other people's!

- Will we see a larger variety of brushable characters released?

- Will any ponies from previous gens be remade in G4 style?

- Will there be more brushable boy ponies released?

- Will the Power Ponies be released as a brushable set?

- Will Luna ever get a show accurate toy? xD

I second the retro characters to G4 question and the more boy brushables question.

I love the POP playset because it isn't just a front but am disappointed that it is not scaled for the playful size brushables.  Will they ever consider making similar non-castle play sets for the playful size?

- The quality of a number of G4 toys leaves something to be desired.  Is there any chance that the QC could be stepped up even if it causes a price increase?

- What are the odds of the first Mane 6 Fashion Styles being re-released in the US, even if it's online only? Some sites over in Australia have some of the originals listed for sale.

- What are the odds of seeing some of the more well-known background ponies (Flitter, Cloudchaser, Lily, Daisy, Rose, etc.) in brushable form?

- Why the lack of variety in Brushable releases?  When the earliest G4 brushables came out, there was more to choose from than just the Mane 6.  Were the sales of the non-Mane ponies poor or were there production cost issues?

- On that subject, I've noticed that the blind bag sets tend to have unique molds, such as Diamond Tiara, Octavia, and Granny Smith.  Is the smaller size of the figures and the price of the sets what allow for there to be more custom molds?

- Every year, you have released brushable toys aimed primarily at older fans (Zecora, Shadowbolt Rainbow Dash, etc.). Since we are a large enough demographic to have merchandise targeted specifically at us, is there any case to make a 'deluxe' line of pony toys at the same price ($10) as the Zecora and Shadowbolt Dash, but made to a higher standard of quality, with more attention paid to show-accuracy with regard to body and hair color and outfits/accessories?

- Will there be an EqG doll of Princess Cadance?

1. Can we ever expect a collectors line of figures like you do for star wars and transformers. Releasing the original classic G1 pony favorites in G4 singles?

2. Will we start seeing more boy characters made? (besides the blind bags)

3. Was there any discussion about a 30th year anniversary? Why didn't we see any G1 ponies return for that celebration, do we still have hope on getting anything in the future?

4. Will we ever get a blind bag Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, or Spike?

5. We liked what you did last year by putting another exclusive on hasbrotoyshop, but we weren't a fan of the character since we already had multiple Princess Twilights accessible, would Hasbro consider a limited made collectors line via online only?

6. Bring back the sea ponies please for season 5, we would love an underwater season and sea ponies flooding the stores! Has hasbro considered bringing them back again?

Oh oh!!! This is a fantastic question! Yes, why did a 30 year old toy line get completely blanked when other lines get a full out 365 day party :)

I echo all the above questions, and would expand a little on the playset question: if Hasbro *does* create some other bulding playsets, will they consider making them more robust, open and close-able, with rooms and "real" interiors (a la Paradise Estate, G1 castles, stables etc, and even a lot of the Ponyville buildings) as opposed to the facades we have seen with the g4 playsets-- even the big ones such as the castles :(  ) For example, I could see Fluttershy's cottage being awesome as a three dimensional, multi-level tree that could open out and close back up, and double as a carry case for all its little parts.

Speaking of carry cases, would Hasbro consider creating a line of cool carry cases for the G4 brushable and/or Fashion sizes, similar to the G1 stable-style carry case?

Are there any plans for a Discord figure, plush or otherwise? With arms and legs that move?

... And without Shining Armour- style troll hair that falls out when you touch it.

Specifially, a big, beautiful brushable Big Mac.
