TheAnimatorOfficial 567 December 23, 2015 Share December 23, 2015 I've been seeing this idea in the past few months of Disney buying Hasbro in the future. The thing is, I'm not entirely sure how well it would work out. For example, implementing MLP and Transformers into Disney Infinity would be awesome. However, I fear for the safety of the innumerable amounts of fan content to copyright. What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest December 23, 2015 Share December 23, 2015 Knowing how Disney operates, merchandise price would sky rocket, but the plus side is for the higher end products the quality would go up. If you've ever been into a Disney store, pretty much everything there is top notch stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lithophila 291 December 23, 2015 Share December 23, 2015 (edited) They would become less adorable magic ponies :grin2: And more fun magic ponies going to see the world. Edited December 23, 2015 by Lithophila 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Lyons 105 December 23, 2015 Share December 23, 2015 Fan made content would be copyrighted, the princesses would become Disney princesses which won't end well, the show would target at little girls even more so some bronies may stop watching it and so views will drop, the budget goes smaller, it gets worse then the situation will repeat itself for a while until the show ends which, knowing Disney, would take the franchise with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kivil 1,721 December 23, 2015 Share December 23, 2015 Welp say goodbye to posting fan art, and say hello to high price crap. Also, say hello to the show now being more pink and stupid for all of the little girls. FInally say goodbye to the part of the season premiere where Starlight Glimmer breaks the glass jars. Disney won't let animators break glass in shows and movies. (M.A. Larson said that is the bronies react of the season premiere) 1 ~My life is a bunch of Discord~Yes, the pun was intended~Kivil~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmarston1 5,959 December 23, 2015 Share December 23, 2015 Get ready for MLP FIM to have a crap ton of hiatuses and that even by praying you will only be able to get at the absolute maximum, 2 episodes a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,681 December 23, 2015 Share December 23, 2015 I actually don't think much would change. From what I have heard, Disney is usually pretty good with letting their subsidiaries do their own thing and Disney is also good with the marketing. If they did purchase them, it is not something I would be against. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChefSandy 22 December 23, 2015 Share December 23, 2015 A few thoughts.+4 Disney Princesses. Potentially better product. Since Hasbro already controls top end production direction of a lot of Disney toy lines (including Star Wars afaik), it might not change much. Most pony conventions would cease to exist in their current form due to Disney not being friendly to independent fan conventions focused on their content. It would be Disney getting a few more handholds on the supply chain, with them creating the content, distributing it, and making the toys in the process. Probably not a good net result for the fandom or show. Rarity is Best Marshmallow I Am Full Of Words Bronyville Podcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LHfunk 422 December 24, 2015 Share December 24, 2015 Everyone keeps saying more Disney princesses but no, that's not true. I've seen a whole thing about that, and one of the requirements of being a Disney princess is being human. That's why Nala from Lion King isn't a Disney princess. Plus, Disneys other companies (Like Marvel and Lucasfilms) are separate from Disney, which is why Princess Leia isn't a Disney princess. That's also why the show wouldn't change very much. The only difference is that Disney would make even more money off of more things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainDoubloon 856 December 24, 2015 Share December 24, 2015 How odd, I was randomly thinking about this earlier. I think if Disney bought Hasbro we'd see more MLP stuff at Disney parks and costumed ponies walking around. And maybe a mlp video game.....?

Lithophila 291 December 24, 2015 Share December 24, 2015 (edited) One thing that really sells this for me Kingdom Hearts with a My Little Pony Level Ponies are nice though, but mixing the pony world with KH... Nope! FF7 was like the best psychological impact ^^. PS1 was so nice. Kingdom Hearts just works on Disney because they are just so overly optimistic in general, so you can add that stuff even if they are the most depressing and... yeah i just don't think much about it. But it goes like this. "I need to seek the darkness" . Suddently all ponies will just get overly annoyed or some depressed by all the emo talk in the game. Its sad though that the next FF7 game is being released by Nomura... the god of depression : [ What cures it is a good hug... Ponies ^-^. Fluttering and soft hugs ^^ Although i'd be ok with a good pony fantasy ^^ all the hugs and flutters!

Kingdom Hearts and MLP have so many parallels that it would fit perfectly in that universe. Hell I think Sora gives so many friendship speeches that he would give Twilight a run for her money. Plus it would only be a level, not part of the overarching plot. I wouldn't mind it if it were like a Winnie the pooh level, with Sora just helping around ponyville or something. Its supreme fanfic fodder if nothing else. http://www.fimfiction.net/user/Billy%20G%20Gruff http://billyggruff.deviantart.com/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPVpSXbUpDYTcaFHTPiPjYA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adventure Ponies are fun I'm guessing you've never actually played kingdom hearts and are just running off hearsay, or perhaps just running off the fanart, because kingdom hearts would never have become as popular as it has if all it was was an emo fest. That would be like me saying My little pony is filled with emos because it has an entire episode devoted to a pony of the night doing self harm to herself because of her dark and mysterious past. The kingdom hearts I know is one that is filled with tales of the power of friendship, of exploring new yet familiar worlds in a new light, great original characters that play off the Disney cast far more naturally than they have any reason of doing, and just fun gameplay that has had me and many others hooked since game one. http://www.fimfiction.net/user/Billy%20G%20Gruff http://billyggruff.deviantart.com/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPVpSXbUpDYTcaFHTPiPjYA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAnimatorOfficial 567 December 24, 2015 Author Share December 24, 2015 Disney is not going to make the ponies princesses. Why? Because they are not created by Disney themselves. They are created by a seperate entity. And before you say Merida, Pixar=Disney. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No i played it. I played the 2nd game on PS2 way back then before it became a norm on the internet and i have beaten both games. The only thing positive i can say is that somewhat the gameplay can be fun. But the overall atmosphere of the game i dislike somewhat. I think the 1st was more going for a harder approach to relying on your moves to help you etc. The drives i liked. But in general it is... not a good game series. Umm i just found My Little Pony pretty cozy after a couple of episodes ^^. Its nice! I don't wanna argue too much though. Because its Christmas. And i wish you a merry christmas btw Edited December 24, 2015 by Lithophila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artimis Whooves 1,576 December 24, 2015 Share December 24, 2015 Kingdom Hearts with a My Little Pony Level This for me is the only acceptable use of mlp by disney.

cider float 2,538 December 25, 2015 Share December 25, 2015 (edited) It would be better in the gloves of Mickey Mouse. There's been lots of positive views on Marvel and Star Wars since they were given to Disney. I mean look at the reception Frozen got and see how more widespread Marvel has become which used to been an outcast just like MLP was. With MLP in Disney's hands out as a movie it would be more more acceptable. Edited December 25, 2015 by cider float Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
