I would buy the toys, but honestly I'd much rather boycott Hasbro. They're doing a crap job of marketing. Seriously, I have a little sister, so I KNOW what the originally intended demographic has to say about it, and even SHE'S complaining about Celestia's toy being pink.

What Hasbro should do is make a Derpy Hooves playset.

I wish. That would be way too cool of them.

The two coolest things Hasbro has done so far:
1. Included a snippet of the full-length opening theme in a Twilight Sparkle sing-along plushie.
2. Included a microwave in Princess Luna's Canterlot Playset, which one could only hope is a reference to the fanfic "Princess Luna vs. The Microwave" but chances are it's just a coincidence.

Also BLU-RAY OR SEASON 2. SERIOUSLY. Not asking for both, but is it too much to ask for the release date of ONE OF THEM?

Fricking seriously.

If I would have to chose between Blu-Ray or Seasons two, I would pick Season Two since I already watched all of Season One (Which I watched all in one night).

Also, I think I would freaking like to see a Derpy Hooves playset sometime.

It would probably have to be a post office

I didn't know something as innocent as My Little Pony could become so corrupted by the internet :3

Those are almost too wrong for this thread. Glad you linked them instead of embedding them, tho.

Also, don't show either of those to Russ. He's been dying to make some pedopony jokes.

The second one would be perfect as an avatar. LOL.

As soon as I finished episode 18, I immediately though "Huh, I wonder if /b/ has already corrupted this with Pedobear?" Answer: Yes.

...so this is the reason for all of the pony avis I've seen. Interesting...I'm almost tempted to watch the series for the heck of it. Almost someone convince me.

[Chakaa]

Are you convinced yet?

EDIT: Oh, and if you need more convincing:

So. I've gone and done it. I figured I'd give this show a shot when a link to the series on YouTube presented itself. So, seeing as I had no better use of my free time today, I decided "I'm going to get this over with, I'm going to see if this is actually worth watching, and I'm gonna watch at least four episodes so I can't get any 'Well you only saw one episode how would you know?' accusations."

So, here it is.

... I...

... made you think I was gonna proclaim I liked it, didn't I?

No, I didn't like it. Sure, it had good animation, but it was a little too bright. But really, I found that all it was was a glorified kiddie adventure show. The first two episodes felt like an adventure movie for kids, the next two became shows about life lessons. The show itself was so cliche as to be predictable. The voice acting was hit-or-miss. And really, through all four of the first episodes, I was only getting one vibe from this: Kid's show. For kids.

I admit I chuckled at a place or two but it wasn't hardly enough to redeem the series. Maybe now I know how my dad feels about SpongeBob.

So it's not a show for everyone, that's what they say. It's definitely not one for me. I promise, I went into it with an open mind. And hopeful that it wouldn't be fully aimed at children simply because of the fact that it was created by the same company that did Powerpuff Girls. ... not that I liked that either.

So... thought I'd put it out there that I actually tried it, and didn't like it because I actually saw it instead of just by the fact that it's My Little Pony. By all means, continue to enjoy the show, I just won't. And hey, at least I gave it a shot, right?

Also, don't show either of those to Russ. He's been dying to make some pedopony jokes.

Too late. I linked him the post.

[Chakaa]

Damn it TS, you led me to believe we had claimed another member to the herd, only to crush my spirit halfway through your post

[Fabbrizio]

Powerpuff Girls. ... not that I liked that either.

You're dead to me.

I can respect that you don't like MLP, but seriously. Powerpuff Girls is universally the best thing ever. And no, there is no counter argument to that.

Ahem.

1. The Super Mario Bros. series
2. The Legend of Zelda series
3. The Sonic the Hedgehog series
4. Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann
5. Bacon

Particularly that last one there.

Although honestly I was expecting a different reaction. Seriously? I was a kid who only saw a couple of episodes, didn't understand the humor, assumed it was for girls, then went back to Scooby Doo. You can't blame me. Now get back on topic, Powerpuff Pony.
