I just saw this announced via Hasbro's Facebook. My Little Pony will be one of the 2016 inductees into the Toy Collector Hall of Fame, which celebrates classic, long-lived, beloved toy brands.
Congrats My Little Pony, Bonnie Zacherle, and Hasbro!
Bonnie Zacherle is mentioned on the organization's website, so she might be at the award dinner? I'm not sure, their website is a little confusing, lol.
