Ugh, how i hate the fact that the toy industry spoils the show(SPOILER ALERT).

[ScarfaceOne 263]

Right. So there is a rule about Transformers and MLP. The show was designed to sell toys. Well i hate the fact that the toy expo that are available to public spoiled the ending of Season 4. That the box contained a castle that grew with the tree. And that an Italian commercial said about Rainbow Power. If the expos prevented people from taking pictures and posting them online they would not spoil the show. I Don't mind movie spoilers or TV Series i do not watch. But i do mind MLP Spoilers. Stupid toy industry ,

Is anyone listening? I may have to have this deleted on request of admin

I get where you're going with this. It's like the toy industry dictates everything about the show, like the breezie episode for instance. 

[Jeric 46,834]

Merchandise related spoilers are old news though. I remember back in '86 when Rodimus Prime hit the shelves with the description of Autobot Leader.

 

Then there was the freaking track title on The Phantom Menace OST that someone had the bright idea to name "Funeral of Qui-Gonn"

 

I do agree that expos meant for the benefit of resellers should prevent public distribution of photos, but in this day and age that is nigh impossible.

I totally agree. Most shows that have a toy franchise based on the show, basically screams that we made the show to sell toys.

Considering the main MLPF page cuts out thread titles if they're too long, PLEASE, for the sake of a thousand potential victims, perhaps consider putting that content in a spoiler tag. *dies*

On topic: I usually just avert my eyes when about to witness spoiler content. Or, at least, I try. ;_;

Well you must be around for quite a while!!! I must admit. Dad's work which is an F1 Team has a strict no photography rule. For Toy expos i think the same rule should apply.

Well sh*t.

There goes that.

Mech producers usually have insight and then get antsy on when they are going to release it.
So they just *bam* on the shelves.
