Hot Topic finds: Not sure how to feel

[HawaiianRain]

You know, I don't mind the brony part. I do mind the over breeding of merch with dash on it. I love dash to bits but would like to see some other ponies in the spotlight on their products they request/carry.

[Pinecone]

Yeah, Dash is over done. Just like Bubbles, Dr Hoof, and DJ Pawn or whatever he name is.

They should also stop putting Pinkie Pie on everything as well. It's always Dash and Pinkie. I want Rarity and Fluttershy to get the spotlight! I love them so much! <3

Fluttershy needs more things.

'brony' is a gender neutral term for me.

It isn't a gender neutral term. Brony is "bro" + "pony." Bro = slang for brother. Brother refers to a male category. Therefore brony is an inherently masculine term. It is not gender neutral.

Fluttershy needs more things.

I saw a boy at McDonald's with this really lovely Fluttershy shirt. It was all fancy swirls and such on a black background - I should have asked him where he got it.

It might not be gender neutral in origin but it can become gender neutral. "dude" and "guys" is used in a gender neutral way tho they are originally masculine terms. "bro" is also on its way to becoming gender neutral. This one girl I am friends with (she is not into ponies) is always calling me "bro" tho I am not masculine at all.

Unfortunately, just because something gains a new use doesn't change its actual nature. I say this as someone who calls everyone bro and dude, regardless of how femme they are.

Fluttershy has things (though I'd LOVE some more Fluttershy things).  Rarity has barely any things   You know, for a pony with such a big personality, she sure is getting the raw end of the deal lol.  I've seen maybe 2 Rarity shirts.  Why in the world hasn't come up with Rarity jewelry or hair accessories (yeah that stuff's for girls and women folk, but...Rarity is such a girly fashionista!)  Come on, people.  A Rarity pendant or cutie mark earrings!  Like, officially made (I say that because I've seen some UH-MAYZING custom-made jewelry from seriously talented folks out there that I want to make sure I acknowledge, cause they sure as heck deserve the praise!).

[Pinecone]

Yeah, I'm not sure if bronies are especially fond of Rarity.

(Of course, a bunch of bronies are probably going to respond to this to prove me wrong! )

[Pinkie21]

Hmm?  I know a ton of bronies who have an almost obsession with her, lol...  But in all honesty, it wouldn't hurt whoever's in charge of merchandise to put, you know...ALL the 6 characters on a few things. 

[DazzleKitty]

I seriously agree at the lack of Rarity stuff! She's my favorite pony in FiM and I NEVER see any merchandise with her. I'd adore having a fairly large plushie of her.

I'm looking forward to the hair accessories that are supposed to come out in spring, definitely girly!

How fun!  Those are a perfect match-up!

I found this at Target for $10 in the Men's Section. I bought it of course! <3

Oh my gosh, I need this!

What I really wish most of all is that someone would do a good box set of MLP&Friends.  Complete specials, unedited episodes, and a good transfer without interlacing and digital noise reduction smeariness.
