My Little Pony Smackdown

Great article: here, from Collectors Weekly on Bronies vs. Girls. 

Zecora!!

Via: Ponyoftheday and MLPG4Merch on Tumblr. Arena post: here.

Zecora is the SDCC pony! And also from Toys'R'Us:

MY LITTLE PONY ZECORA from Hasbro
MY LITTLE PONY collectors can corral ZECORA from the EVERFREE FOREST! This glow-in-the-dark version of the fan-favorite rhyming zebra can’t wait to share her magic and sage advice with all of her new friends. ZECORA is available as a sneak peek at Comic-Con International in San Diego for $10. For those not able to visit the show, ZECORA will trot into Toys“R”Us stores nationwide this fall.




And on a slightly unrelated note: I really want this Fin and Fiona set too!

eta: (08/03/12) I guess the yellow pony is named Lemony Gem not Lemon Hearts. What a bizarre name.

MLP Liscensing Expo 2012

Via: Equestria Daily. Also at MLP G4 Merchandise. 

Looks like DJ Pon3 is now Vinyl Scratch.

It's nice to see Hasbro finally putting forth some decent marketing strategies and actually paying attention to their market audience - even if it wasn't their original target audience.
