Oh man, I just found a super secret concept image for G5! This is APPLE SPARKLE, and she is the friendliest pony in HAPPY PONY TOWNVILLELAND! She likes to go on magical sparkly adventures with her friends, and they love to trade shoes!

The heads will also be twice the size of their bodies, and each pony comes with four boots. When you take the boots off it turns out they don't have hooves, just pegs! :lol:
Don't forget the ultra rare variants with paint rubs and mis-stamped eyes and cutie marks in every shipment!
These ponies will have a spin off where they turn into beavers.
lets not forget that the most annoying and boring ponies will become "fan favourites"

Maybe they will come in thousands of tiny pieces, and girls must use superglue to put the pieces together. It takes a month to assemble one three-inch pony out of 1,000 tiny pieces. Alicorns will have 3,000,000 1-centimeter pieces.
Also, G5 will not be aimed at little girls anymore. Pink ponies will not exist and ponies will only be aimed at grown men.
There will be Builder Applejacko and Electrician Twilight Sparkle. They come with a free toolkit.
...I drew a picture too. (The sloppiness of the picture represents the sloppiness of paint etc. on the toy)
Everyone, meet Princess Sweetie Dazzle. She comes with paper shoes that you cut out and stick together, and a paper crown because she's a princess of course.

I like the idea that the cartoon could get more and more manly while at the same time the toys just get more glittery, pink and tinsely lol.
They will only be released in countries where they are easily accessible...........like Outer Mongolia.......:(
They may as well be there now since they only seem to be released in Target and Walmart :mad:

Okay, so there will be an extra-special MOVIE where all the ponies are transported to OUTER SPACE!
There will be some sort of magic whatchamahoozie that will give all the ponies special space traveling powers. There will be some sort of antagonist, whom they'll defeat with the power of love and friendship. They will save the galaxy and meet all sorts of equine space aliens...lots of 'em! TONS of different species to tie in with the toy line!

Here's my version of Fluttershy without her cutie mark. XD

It scares me how much this is a possibility. LOL
Oh and Twilight Sparkle will be played by Rhianna!
they would look like this :P

Since there will be a space themed film about them, a safe bet is that there will be a toy line were they all turn into spacemen or space girls.
EDIT: They would look like these; This is Star Sparkle. She loves galactic travelling but also looking fabulous!

The age of physical ponies will be over-- Hasbro will now create iPonies that are completely virtual, and you will be able to decorate them with accessories and clothes, paper doll style, and store them on your virtual shelf.
Don't think that'll make it easy to collect every one-- certain ponies will only be available to purchase with real money at certain times, leading collectors to stalk the storefront page hitting Refresh all day!

OMG- this is actually so cute, lol- she looks so HAPPY!
I'd probably also get the My Little Transformers- those are kinda awesome :biggrin:
My guess though is that they will look more like these guys though- with puffs for hair instead of nylon, and possibly with an anthro angle. ;)

Okay, seriously people! I wonder when Hasbro and other toy companies will just sell the digital file for a figure that you have to have a 3D printer at home to make your own? And then paint it. And forget about brush able hair. And printer cartridges cost EVEN MORE than what we use with the toner always running out.If in the future something like this could be implemented affordably and safely, and the quality of the item was comparable, I would buy products that way. It would eliminate a whole lot of waste. But with 3d printed items as fragile as they are now I dont see it as a valid option.
I think that'll happen--somewhere after all cardboard accessories and pegs for legs ponies runs its course.
"In my day, when you bought a toy you got a toy! They were made of petroleum, not compostable biodegradable extruded soy byproducts. I know, hard to believe!"

-The ponies don't keep other animals as livestock, ponies from other lands are not cast as "non-whites"
:lol: This thread!
I want to be optimistic for once, so here goes:
-Brianne Drouhard will develop the new show for TV (here are some ponies she drew in 2006 (http://potatofarmgirl.blogspot.de/search/label/my%20little%20pony)!)
-The new show is a G1 reboot but also has characters of G2 and G3
-Spike is likeable again and doesn't have a crush on a pony
-Tirac
-Focus on friendship and adventure because little girls also want excitement
-No internet memes, no background pony that causes people to send death threats
-Male ponies are just as colorful as female ponies, they also have longer manes, gender dimorphism is minimal because all characters look diverse to begin with
-The ponies don't keep other animals as livestock, ponies from other lands are not cast as "non-whites"
-toys are a little bigger again, come as brushies, different poses
-playsets also contain the adventure elements and not just the slice of life stuff
Ahhh, perfect :biggrin:
they would look like this :Pha ha ha Seems legit, Applejack still not included in the set? Yep sounds about right....

Eh, it's a fun thread, though a bit dated now that we know we have another five years of G4 coming. -_-Seeing what they've put out, I doubt they'll be able to keep this up 5 years. They're hoping G4 will last about as long as G1 and G3, but they'll need to step up variety and quality if they want to keep it going.

I want to believe the brand will return to its high fantasy roots entirely. The slice of life genre is a waste of its potential.

Sadly, many G4 fans (regardless of what title you give them) support and will continue to support the status quo. I personally think it's about time for a shakeup- new gen, new/returning characters, shifting focus to a new set of ponies, etc- but that's just me. :/
You know the little sponges you got as a kid that came in clear capsules. Yeah next ponies will be packaged like that and be sponges. No brushable hair or paint. They will just be 1 color and be cut in the shape of a pony. You will only know the color but not the size or shape of your pony till you get it out if the capsules.
Maybe we should all just start collecting and watching Filly Funtasia? XD

Oh man, I really want a Potato Dash doll now!
I'm taking a marketing class and now how Hasbro approaches MLP really makes me cringe. Equestria Girls has to be one of the worst attempts at market penetration ever. "Let's like inferior dolls and charge same price as our competition's better made dolls." Do they have anyone running the MLP department that has any real business sense?
I'm sorta thinking, isn't equestria girls G5?
Especially considering we give a .5 to something in G3...
EQ's are at least G4.5
This thread is making me look up Filly Funtasia stuff.
I looked it up and it actually seems pretty cool. I might watch it when it comes out!This thread is making me look up Filly Funtasia stuff.
Well, since Hasbro doesn't seem to be noticing the Arena lately... maybe the secret FF sales reps are here! ;)

I'd kill for a new traditionally animated series featuring a large cast of G1 characters drawn in the Midnight Castle style.
A new adventure each episode & a variety of toys & playsets, MAKE IT HAPPEN, HASBRO. :drunk:
More than G5, I am sincerely terrified of "G4.5"...
Oh my gosh they're here!! Has anyone else seen them yet?? I just got back from target and they've got a whole bunch of them stocked. You're predictions were right! The head is completely round, there's no muzzle and I can't even make out the legs! The hair is so sparse I can't even see it! Cutie marks have been reduced from one side to zero, and it's been glittered!
Meet the newest Gen5 My Little Pony, Princess Sparkle Dazzle!
Isn't she a dream! I can wait to play with her and all the other ones that look exactly the same!

true, and with the way the toys are so closely tied to the show and can't stand on their own, I would be the toys stop when the cartoon series stops.Great point ^

Or they will do what a lot of toy lines do...start the show all over again (with 5 years worth of cartoons but no financial commitment to make the show) and sell the same toys all over again to a new market who are now the right age.The problem is they repeat the show constantly (I think the show runs through its entirety every seven weeks), so it's not like they could act like the show is making a return.

There are time I think the shrinking brand loyalty period is a self fulfilling prophecy. Companies figure kids won't be interested in a brand as long, so they make the brand to not keep a kid's interest for long. I know it's a novel concept, but if you act like your brand is disposable, people will treat it like its disposable.
While a young audience is a revolving door, customer retention is still important (even if their efforts on that front are beyond weak). The series is also the best way to advertise the new gimmick of the year. There's also the bronies who would rage if they ended the show and then brought it back in a way like Transformers Gen 2. Cheap CGI transitions for all.Errr Bronies are all about mane 6 but also on any other pony that catches their eye, otherwise :muffin: Pony, DjPon3, Dr Whooves and many others,would have never become fan favorites :)
And from what I've heard the going almost exclusively Mane 6 and Princesses strategy isn't putting ponies in customers hands all that well. Hasbro is making money hand over fist because stores are buying them for resale. However, if ponies warm shelves, stores will eventually stop ordering them.
I do think the brony craze is beginning to hurt the brand. With the toys being influenced by the studio and the studio being enraptured by the bronies and the bronies only caring about the Mane 6 and some fan faves who don't make the best toys, there could be trouble.
Errr Bronies are all about mane 6 but also on any other pony that catches their eye, otherwise :muffin: Pony, DjPon3, Dr Whooves and many others,would have never become fan favorites :)But they don't make the best brushable toys. And when Hasbro makes them, they shove them into an expensive set.

It's not been 7 straight years of a limited toyline. G3 was able to keep the Core 7 alive by releasing G3.5 with new playsets. G4 also had a many brushable ponies for the first couple of years. Now it seems G4 is keeping the Mane 6 relevant by altering them. Twilight's now a princess and we now have the Rainbow Power forms.
And again it's not the customers that pay Hasbro, it's the stores. As long as Hasbro can convince stores people will buy their latest rendition of the Mane 6, the stores will order them.
I need the collectible tear vial too!!!

This reminds me of an interview with George Dunsay (http://www.tfarchive.com/fandom/interviews/george_dunsay/george_dunsay_interview.php), who was head of Hasbro's Research & Development when G1 My Little Pony and Transformers debuted:And ten years later it's likely gotten worse.
George Dunsay: "I cannot say why Hasbro does what it does now. I stopped consulting for them four or five years ago."
(In 1999, since this interview was in 2004.)
"All that seems to matter now is what Wal-Mart wants. Toy companies do not sell their new ideas, they take orders. There is a difference.""
"Back when I was heading up all of Hasbro corporate R&D (just a little ego trip here: We went from $65 million when I came to Hasbro to $1.8 billion when I left 10 years later), we told the store what to buy. The year we made My Little Pony, it wasn't even our #1 girls' offering. But we forced it into the stores, and it took off. Today, toy companies show products to the "Marts" (Wal-Mart, Kmart and Target), and the buyers make their choices based on what is currently popular. So in essence, you are designing next year against what is popular last year. That's why there are very few new, exciting ideas."
