Some more S6 information and relation to Guardians of Harmony

This is a blue board which means that it's for everybody (Safe For Work content only). If you see any adult content, please report it.

So EqD actually tried to summarize the S6 stuff from yesterday.

http://www.equestriadaily.com/2016/02/hasbros-press-only-toy-fair.html#more

Some key points:
>"Unique execution of fan favorite characters never seen before for Guardians of Harmony (Probably that heavy warrior theme with weapons and armor instead of pies). All of this will be tied in with IDW."
>"Video plays with roaring Spike and Rarity(?) telling him to "oh be quiet!". They say the "Hero item" is inspired by one of their episodes, no idea what that is."
>"
Gabby the Griffon coming, with a "Griffons don't have cutie marks, or do they...?" hint from Meghan McCarthy"
>"Dragons, including a girl dragon."
>"Another new pony called "Cotton Candy Face" by Meghan."

So, those little random symbols with GoH toys mean something. I wonder what?
>>
>"Dragons, including a girl dragon."

OH BOY HERE WE GOOO

>EQD
Do people still use that place, whats it like these days?
Only ever went on it about 3 times since 2011

Not the same thing or same designs. Coincidence that sadly will enable the person who made them.

It is starting to seem to freaky to be a coincidence.

Designs looked nothing alike. Spike's armor looked nothing like what we got.

Do we know the leaker didn't have some insider info?

That's the only way this would make sense to me.

I think the leaker is a goddamn psychic. There's too many similarities to be a coincidence.

Give me the nutshell of it. What was it like because all I got from the catalog was Lena
>>
>>26464107
A lot of stuff went wrong. Venue was bad, the VIPs got upset, security was bad, etc.

Related to the reveal, I wonder who the girl dragon is, I really hope it's not Mina.

>>26463460

Mina confirmed, the bronies will love that shipper

It is starting to look a lot less fake now.

>>26464228
There are a few G1 threads here sometimes, and they have their own forums.

>>26464185
God, no. Seth would have mentioned if it were a dragon we've seen before.

>>26464105
That's because the leaked one was something different than what was shown at the toy fair.
>>
>>26464237
>>26464186
I have fucking confirmation from people who talked to the guy who commissioned it. Stop trying to mislead people. It's fake, it was designed to proliferate.

I never knew these pre G4 toys were so popular.
>>
>>26464438
The stuff at the toy fair is the prototypes.
>>
>>26464451
They're generally a bunch of legbeards that really resent G4 being popular, but most of them liked GoH being announced.

>>26464370

Why the fuck does that dragon have hair?
>>
>>26464530
Because Agnes Garbowska saw one single background dragon in the show and decided to base an entire town off of that. There was only one dragon in the show that did, that purple and yellow one from Dragon Quest.

I wish we could get more detail about what she looked like.

Can somebody please ask Jim Miller about that? Just ask him if the comic will affect S06 so he doesn't have any NDAs to worry about.

He will just lie or dodge the question.

If he avoids the question he will confirm she IS Mina.

If she isn't then he will have no problem at all do confirm the comic will not affect the cartoon.

Here is your reply.

Comics are not canon to the show, never have been. The comics contradict the show by including things like TV news networks in ponyville and the show contradicts the comics as well. They're separate entities tied to the same franchise
>>
>>26464799
Chysalis' armouor is CLEARLY based on her IDW Fiendship comic.
>>
>>26464821

Are you actually suggesting that toys are canon to the show?
>>
>>26464799
But they've been leaning towards the comics, moreso than to EG.

See: Episode 101's OC of the artists cameo

Nah, that was just a design choice. They can pick and choose, you know.

Also, here are the "Hero" Items together. Odd that they're called that considering Chrysalis and Shadowbolts get them. I couldn't get a good pic of RD's, but she has one too.

>"What sets us apart is that we are not quite interested in telling you what happened in a particular episode, but more interested in telling you what happened between episodes," explains Michael Kelly, director of global publishing, Hasbro. "When the TV goes off and the movie theater goes dark, those characters are alive in your imagination. We build that story out and give you canon stories that happen in between the episodes and movies. >"A big part of our success is, from a content standpoint, that we deliver not an interpretation or adaptation, but provide original content that is expanding that universe and giving an additional experience of characters," he adds.
>>
>>26464910
Wow, that's a lot of words that still said nothing.
>>
>>26464910
The comics have TVs in them. The show would never put TVs in them and they are absolute on this. That's at least one difference.
>>
>>26464910

Regardless of if that was their intent, the comics disregard established show lore to the point of being incompatible
>>
>>26464942
>The show would never put TVs in them
Give them time, after all they already used telephones which makes Spike completely useless.
>>
>>26464942
Those "TV interviews" were supposed to be pre-television cinema news-reels. The writer specified this in the script, though Hasbro did have to remind Tony Fleecs to use the sepia tone to match the script and show canon.

Don't forget cinemas, arcade video games, hydroelectric dams, etc.

They have a drop dead date for technology unless it's a gag or a story element: the Edwardian era. Telephones, but only old timey ones.

Also, updated because I found RD's hero item. Celestia and Luna don't have them, neither do the two Wonderbolts.
>>
>>26465034
Yeah, keep telling yourself that. Then explain the first friends Forever comic which also used Tv and cameras too.

The cartoon also used old victrolas while Vinyl Scratch uses modern headphones with mp3 music on them.
>>
>>26465034
Yeah, which is why there was a Dr. Phil parody in the hospital RD was in, but then again you can't really trust Fosgitt to follow anything.

I can't believe power ups or actually going to be in the series.

These "Hero" items look interesting, if those are even the items they are referring to. They seem to be medals of some sort or maybe magical items that allow them to "transform" into their armors. And no, I'm not suggesting the "leaked" animatic is real.

But the info so far says it was inspired by one of their episodes, meaning singular. Whatever these are weren't important enough to be in the show after one episode so they shove them off into comic territory which falls into ambiguous canon status in hopes to bring interest back to the comics.

If only these new comics were a spin-off that ignored everything in the mainline comics and only took from what was established in the show/books, I'd be more excited about it.
Also this girl dragon news could be good, if they go far far off the characterization that Mina was.

S6 info so far:

26 episodes
Confirmed writers: Mike Vogel
Premiere episode featuring Princess Flurry Heart (SA & Cadance's alicorn filly)
2 Discord episodes (possibly twoparter)
Hearthswarming Eve episode and song , with all the mane 6 and CMC singing and background ponies helping decorate
Gabby the Griffon (can griffons have cutie marks? episode)
Manehattan episode featuring Pinkie, Maud and RD.
Fluttershy's Brother
Daring Do returns
Dragons, including a girl dragon. (possibly part of the Hearthswarming Eve episode)
New character: Cotton Candy Face
Possibly Felicia Day and William Shatner guest-starring

>Many of the new figures come right out of scenes from the cartoon, and according to Lomow, a new series of comic books from IDW debuts this fall extending some of the story lines from the series and new toys.

This means little considering all the new toy lines characters were already in previous FiM episodes. Also, it's been later qualified that it won't be an actual comic series as much as in-package comics along with the toys.
>>
>>26471190
I think it was presented in new ways, and new ideas in episodes, because of the "hero items" thing. IDK. Maybe you're right and it is its own IP like EqG is. Though we've seen how well that stays in its own area...

We can only wait and see I guess.

The way Bobby Curnow responded to the GoH line honestly makes me think that he found out about it at the same time we did. Hasbro has done shit like that before.

It's weird because the prototype toy boxes don't look like they would have comics in them at all, unless they're like those mini comics (pic related)

Don't know if it's that. Maybe they're redesigning the boxes? They looked definitely in their prototype stage and Hasbro reps apparently were adamant about being specific that they were prototypes. Wonder why things were repeated four times on the same box? It isn't finalized.

Though honestly, I think that with toys like this you're not going to have much space to advertise the comic.

I want to get more information, but I also don't want to have to be an autist to get it from Transformers/Star Wars fans who probably didn't pay attention to details we would care about anyway. Should I just wait until someone posts audio? I've seen Twitter accounts of people who saw the panel:

It can't be based on Secret of My Excess like the toy was "inspired" by because the toy was more than that.
>>
>>26474210
The quote implies that there is an episode that ties into the "Hero Items", presumably the crests with the coat of arms of each character.

I don't recall any episodes that could qualify for that so I'm guessing there's a S6 episode that deals with them.
>>
>>26474273
"Hero Items" don't come with the Celestia and Luna statues that are directly based off of the premiere. The rest is just "inspirations." And yeah. Would be nice if we had the audio Seth got this info from.
