They do make toys. Everything is going up though, and that means their prices are going up,and in this economy people have less $ for fun things. Given the fact that MLP has so little variety to offer little girls, it's like the snake that eats its own tail. Just a self perpetuating cycle. Wouldn't surprise me if they start axing brands that aren't doing well to put more money into their brands that do sell well. Such is business. MLP may possibly end up with JatH and Fairytale Birds.
Have you seen all the Care Bears and Fur Real Friends? And discouting brand with different niche than MLP like Monopoly or Transformer. Hasbro is too big to care about their once golden child. The Care Bear Hype is rediculous, we even have a (if not more) Care Bear Café here in South East Asia. The worst part is Care Bears are actually made with soft fluffy fabric with good stitch, while the quality plastic of pony body and hair went nose dived.
MLP couldn't stand out from all the unicorn/cute retro vintage/cottagecore craze or keep up with the kids, Hasbro wants to play it safe and chaep, a loop of self-fulfilling prophecy. and Hasbro will just occasionally gave us G1 Blossom for 10th times.
