Black Sabbath 2,486 May 11, 2018 Share May 11, 2018 Yeah, it's close enough that you'd get a C&D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leavemealone 547 May 11, 2018 Share May 11, 2018 I would say so, yeah. Unless you negotiate something (really hard with a corporate entity) you would probably would 53 minutes ago, Yamet said: get a C&D. “And for that, you ain't seein' the boss just yet.

Guest May 11, 2018 Share May 11, 2018 If you try to make any money off of it or have it professionally published (given ISBNs) then absolutely, Hasbro will send you a cease and desist (or you just won't get past the publisher). If this is all free for public consumption, then there's nothing to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharpWit 2,785 May 11, 2018 Share May 11, 2018 Yeah, only way you're going to make money off of this is if it gets popular enough that you can sell some merchandise based around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you please point out what content is MLP, Related Just Like Hasbro from all this ? I was not aware that Hasbro made a Dragon pony Hybrid.

PiratePony 8,486 May 11, 2018 Share May 11, 2018 The entire style is MLP. What the heck is an "earth pony," plus the very MLP styling of names. You'd have to create your own original dynamic and world style. Sun Swirl? Moon Shine? All sound like MLP style naming conventions. The dragon/pony hybrid is a non issue - it's that you have My Little Ponies and dragons Courtesy of @Sparklefan1234 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
碇 シンジン 27,437 May 11, 2018 Share May 11, 2018 Well I would say it's kinda on the edge but its better to clear up any traces to MLP to avoid issues and im pretty sure that will help your product in the end as well Rarity Fan Club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also sets the scene for a different dynamic and setting which I think influence a lot in storytelling and it separates your work from mlp more successfully Rarity Fan Club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King of Canterlot 9,604 May 11, 2018 Share May 11, 2018 If I were you I would possibly get some type of a legal publisher/consultant to review your story's and characters and compare and contrast the differences and similarities between them and Hasbro's properties. I've never done anything like this before, so I feel like if I were you, I would go to some actual legal professionals/publishers first before deciding what needs to be changed with said series.

TS Lightner 269 May 11, 2018 Share May 11, 2018 (edited) This is pretty much unknown, but it does exist (it got linked on an old forum thread on here), and I plan to use it for a FiM fanmade episode thing I'm trying to start, but Hasbro does have a "Permission to Use" request/form system. So if you want to try this route, you can, and I'll leave the links to it. A bit of instructions under the "Permission to Use" drop-down:http://newsroom.hasbro.com/contact-us And the form one would need to submit:https://corporate.hasbro.com/documents/Hasbro-Permission-to-Use-request-Form.pdf Mind you this is no guarantee you'll get permission, but this would be the least dodgy way going about what you're trying (if you wanna make money, and if you don't, it's still a good idea). Edited May 11, 2018 by Superplay64 Do you want to see more of Twilight and her friends after Season 9? Then consider helping Friendship is More Than Magic, the unofficial FiM successor!

It's not so much the story as it's the design of the characters. Plus some other minor things, like you using the term earth pony and having ponies raising the sun and moon.

B, I'm not entirely convinced that's enough of a difference to matter (the same goes for them not living together and one being male and the other female). 5 minutes ago, RaphLuna said: Earth ponies easy to change now plan to change it to Surface ponies. Problem solved in this area. Ok, so on a completely unrelated question. Does the majority of inhabitants in your world live under the water? I mean, if they don't it doesn't really make much sense for this kind of pony to be called surface ponies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rainbowdashacademy 114 May 12, 2018 Share May 12, 2018 Raphluna, How do you know your safe ? All you can really do is write to the Hasbro company and if they say no to your idea then you have nothing lose. In fact long ago I wrote Hasbro on my toy changing robots idea got permission to use my own versions of the Headmasters, and Pretenders the idea was called Waracons N Crushazoids enjoy the instructions when I have time to put it on here.
