Is this show for real?
« on: July 03, 2017, 06:30:27 PM »
Littlest Pet Shop: Blythe X

The reason I ask is I only found 2 wikia articles on it and if it is real and connected like they claim than the Littlest Pet Shop world is the same as the Equestria Girls world which gives the former show direct connection to My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

I'm not sure about a show, but there was a mini-Blythe doll collab with Littlest Pet Shop in the past. They made several dolls, though they didn't come with pets, who were themed around the toy line (the matching pets were sold as separate toys). Maybe the show you've found was a tie-in with that line?

Edit to add:
Blythe was bought by Hasbro in 1991, it looks like. This is the same year that Hasbro acquired Kenner (the original LPS manufacturer). I wouldn't be surprised if the link was a while in the making, to be honest.

I don't think so. There would be more info then just on a wiki...

One of the wikis made this statement:

Blythe was originally made by Kenner just like LPS. When Hasbro bought Kenner they got the rights to Blythe. For a long time Hasbro was content just to license Blythe out to CWC in Japan but then they decided to use the name for a human friend for LPS. There were some web shorts with a character named Blythe before the 2012 series which could be what they are talking about.

Sounds like a fan series to me. I doubt it actually exists.

Then that explains it. I didn't realise Blythe was a Kenner line doll from the get-go.
