ponylaces 1,870 September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 Apparently, Hasbro has made a new deal with Disney. I wonder if Disney will start airing MLP on their channel. Who knows?

M'aiq the Liar 5,804 September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 According to it it just means more crappy hasbro lead filled plastic Elsa dolls. #yayforcapitalism I really hope they do remove the lead this time though.....although I do enjoy melting down my disney princess toys to make bullets. 1 http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/vera-yeoman-r5921Muh pleb tier OC .http://mlpforums.com/blog/1663/entry-12477-pony-waifu-wedding-13-maiq-x-fleetfoot/ MLP forum's #1 Fleetfoot fan also married to fleetfoot <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostfacekiller39 23,860 September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 I doubt it. It's just giving them the ability to mass produce a bunch of toys. I don't even really see how this affects MLP, fortunately. I'd die if Disney got their hands on this show. 2 He who is Positively Obsessed With All Things Rarity!!! Check out the Rarity Fan Club!

Visual Spectrum 1,932 September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 Wasn't Pony Tales aired on Disney Channel? If FiM was aired, the characters would be ruined. They would also add a lot of romance and things like that. Disney should not touch FiM! *Keeps Rarity safe from filthy Disney hands.* Applejack Fan Club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would also add a lot of romance and things like that. Disney should not touch FiM! *Keeps Rarity safe from filthy Disney hands.* All this means is that they are going to show reruns of the show on Disney. Disney in no way OWNS the Franchise. Did Disney Ruin Marvel? Did Disney ruin Dreamworks or Pixar? Even if Disney purchased MLP, All that would happen is that they would own it and nothing more. They are very VERY good at purchasing other companies that are successful and know what they are doing with their product and just letting them do what they do best. There will be no pre 1990's Disney MLP romance drama because Disney. They won't write the script or do anything. If anything, If Disney DID purchase MLP. It would be a colossal success for its future as WELL as making MLP as a "familiy" show and adding a bit more mature content in its future to cement it away from the little girls only tag permanently. It would become a true family show available for both genders and more people would be more open to it since they would have more money to make better non equestria girls movies. Block buster movies people will go in droves to see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBaby 660 September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 (edited) If Disney purchased MLP (and it won't happen, believe me), it probably wouldn't change all that much. Honestly, I think the most that might come out of it would be an actual FiM movie (that isn't EQG), and maybe a musical. And even then, the latter isn't very likely. Seriously, a musical based on a popular franchise originally geared toward young girls? That would NEVER work... Ok, but it still probably won't happen.

Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,896 September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 *Que end of the show nonsense* Disney is pretty chill with any partnerships they have I've noticed so this concerns me none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainboom Dash 1,056 September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 I don't feel like Disney would make too much alteration if they got their hands on MLP. We could get more Star Wars/Marvel jokes out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChewedPencil 7 September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 Woah woah woah... Whaere are you guys getting "Didney ith buying Hathbro!?!?!" from? I mean, to me, it sounds like HASBRO is the one getting something from this. I mean, Hasbro just got the rights to make DOLLS of the Disney Princesses. Nowhere in that did I read the Disney got the rights to MLP... The agreement gives Hasbro global rights (excluding Japan) to develop dolls based on Disney Princess stories and characters including Cinderella, Beauty and The Beast, and The Little Mermaid as well as Frozen beginning in 2016. This blatantly states my point. I mean, Hasbro is simply being allowed to make dolls of Disney's IP. If someone could point me to the line where they say that Disney is buying out the MLP IP, that would be great... thank you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darker 1,352 September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 Meh. They aren't going to do anything bad to a show that has thousands of fans out there. Disney died a long time ago when it was corrupted by money. Masterpieces like Snow White, The Lion King, Sleeping Beauty, they're all gone. But I still remember Walt Disney, a man who wanted to put a smile on every kid and man's faces.

ManaMinori 4,146 September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 Hasbro and Disney teamed up once before to make Disney Princess ponies. During G3. http://mylittlewiki.org/wiki/Category:Disney_Princess_Ponies sad that its Disney princesses and not Disney fairies. Because their fairy characters are strikingly similar to Hasbro's Pony Mane 6, which is what I really wanted to see being done.

Photon Jet 5,491 September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 This could be interesting. One of the pony princesses may have taken a trip to see Mickey Mouse. I don't know how but that's all I know. Rest assured that Gaston doesn't see this. 1 Dark thoughts are banished!

Jangocoolguy 433 September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 (edited) Oh for the luvva Celestia--EVERYPONY CALM THE BUCK DOWN! This has NOTHING to do with us or FiM. This is just Disney using other people do to their work for them (as usual). They are NOT buying Hasbro, nor are they acquiring MLP. Hasbro has a bunch of other stuff going on besides ponies ya know. Heck, the thing starts two years from now. FiM may be over by then for all we know.I swear, this fandom is more skittish and easily spooked than the equines we watch... :|I'm just surprised the Big D is turning to Hasbro. I thought they already had another company--heck, multiple ones--making Princess Dolls, or did it themselves. I just wish the male characters would get something out of this...

Tetrakemy 221 September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 Did Disney Ruin Marvel? ....Yeah, They totally ruined the Avengers. Disney wouldn't ruin shit for any propriety they pick up. Just means those areas get more money. I mean heck, They Distribute Studio GHIBLI films for craps sake! Disney got one hell of a deal by having the god like honor to be able to do that.

Ponyo was barely in theaters at all. The sad thing is that it was most widely distributed/advertised Miyazaki movie ever.
