MLP and Hasbro.

[Rarity Paige Belle 1,855]

I read in my morning paper today that MLP is the only reason why Hasbro are in profit. What do you think?

[yeet 2,027]

yeah, well and there board games, pretty much everything else is shit.

[Scootalove 10,692]

I'd believe so, plus the fans who buy the memorabilia and other merchandise.

[Khaoios 1,970]

Yes.  That is true, however, Hasbro has been around since the 20's (60's was Hasbro), but they've been making a profit since.  Now with MLP and Hasbro, that has definitely done wonders for Hasbro, but that's a good sign, b/c the more they continue with the series and the growth of the fandom.  The more money they will get and continue the series, ;D

'tis true, my fellow bronies. It shows us how powerful the fandom can be

If the fandom goes, so does Hasbro? Jeez, they can't be that desperate to put their profit into our hands...right? >.>

Actually it's their target group that's making the profit for Hasbro (you know, little girls). In fact, by far their biggest sellers are the Equestria girls dolls.

Really? Last time I checked, very little people even appreciated what was given to them (The Equestria Girls movie), unless little girls were also fangirling over the movie which wouldn't surprise me. XD

Girls love dolls! Its something us Bronies keep forgetting, Hasbro wouldn't keep churning out these products if they weren't selling. And they are, to little girls!

Doubt that hasbro would go under if the bronies left.

 

We're just the cheery on top.

 

we're that weird candybar you get at a resturant when you're done with your meal. Its kinda weird but you take it since its free and it doesnt taste that bad.

Alas, no act is selfless. They make the show 60% to make money and 40% cuz they love their fans. I didnt base those numbers on anything so don't judge. This is good news. It means they dont want it to end, and bad quality makes things end, wich in turn means that we will get good quality, right?
