The minis saved them. Hasbro did really well with those.
Both the fanbase and the intended audience love them.

>>29169266
>how much MLP bombed

in all likelihood they had another profitable quarter and an overall profitable year.

>>29169277
its funny, since the minis have absolutely nothing to do with the newer Equestria girls movies and material. They could stop making EQG right now and just coast on the content they have already for EQG for future minis.

>>29169266
A lot

>>29169286
Europe wouldn't even CARRY the GOH toyline, that cost them a load of money. They should have just stuck to "normal" girls toys.

>>29169325
Hasbro offered Europe GoH but they only ever wanted them in exclusive places. In the US they carried the damn things at Wal-Mart.

>>29169286
Hasbro stocks grew 13% in 2016
>>29169292
You don't kill a cash cow, Anon.

GoH did really well, save for Cheese Sandwich actually. The toys are physically constructed much better than EqG Minis. Probably because they were designed by toy designers rather than an IDW artist.

>>29169266
They haven't arrived at my place because literally no MLP cartoon save for one episode a week at 7 AM on a goddamn Saturday, no reruns.

Toy designers ALSO gave us this shit. Toy designers are just as bad if not worse; the Minis were a great step up. Plus, the GOH toys are based on stuff from the comics, like chrysalis got her Comic armor, so they're already kind of based on comic designer stuff.

>>29169404
Yeah, and the comic design stuff looks bad.

>>29169404
Those toy designers need to be punched.

>>29169344
Why the fuck did they use cheese sandwhich anyways? What the hell made them think he'd sell well? was it just "He's a boy, boys will buy him!"
Fuck, he was one of the bigger toys too.

>>29169425
Hilariously, Big Spike cost twice as much and sold far, far better.

>>29169425
Because he had a cannon.

>>29169343
13%. That's for Star Wars: Rouge One toys, not MLP. Besides the GoH is a failure.

>>29169516
GoH was not a failure. It actually sold rather well.

>>29169560
Well, not for girls.

>>29169560
in america it barely sold at all, and nowhere else.

>>29169780
It sold really well in the US and UK. It wasn't really attempted to be sold anywhere else save for online.

>>29169780
>>29169917
You guys seriously need to back up your statements with some numbers.

>>29169917
Proofs?
Every aggregate I've seen put out numbers shows that GoH sold like ass.

>>29169929
Proof of that? I see Amazon feature GoH stuff and it has more verified sales than even EqG Minis.

>>29169938
Really? Because looking at amazon you are 100% wrong.

>>29169946
Only one EqG thing was on the list for featured products for 2016 Christmas season and almost all of the GoH stuff was.

>>29169917
that's because no one would CARRY it. When you're denied a market worse than not selling well at all.

>>29170096
Many places in the US and the largest toy stores in Europe carried it. It's fine.

>>29170194
Europe didn't carry it, and forget about the rest of the world.

>>29170220
According to Amazon, cherry picking two parts from each series:

MLP EqG Mini Rarity: #8,981 in Toys & Games

MLP GoH Spike/Chrysalis: #4,664 in Toys & Games

MLP GoH Big Spike: #2,207 in Toys & Games

I like how you twats bitched about the toys not being show accurate in the beginning and when HasJew releases a top tier show accurate line of toys you are continue to bitch. God this is just as bad as the Sonic fandumb.

>>29170277
What about EG Sunset mini?

>>29170277
so basically like shit compared to the minis.

>>29170334
#8,725 in Toys & Games.

>>29170363
Every Mini I look up sells pretty poorly compared to GoH, save for one random playset.

>>29170374
Toy store sales are what's important.

>>29170565
Depends, really.

>>29170315
What do you mean? I bought all of GoH.

>>29169425
Probably Thiesson and McCarthy were fanboying him

>>29170600
Thiessen has nothing to do with Hasbro toys and McCarthy doesn't work on MLP that specifically.

>>29170600
most probably they thought that bronies would buy him for being weird al and the kids would buy him because he's a buy.

>>29170759
>kids would buy him because he's a buy

In the future, there are two genders: buy and shop.

>>29171122
Ultracapitalist future?

Also Minis have a really bad thing going with trying to sell the same figures but with a different playset.

>>29170610
Wrong, toy branch doesn't make toys based on their own likings, they probably don't watch the show at all,

Meghan is the one repsonsible for entire story and she judge which characters are popular and have most potential for toy convertion. Cheese probably got there because he friend THiesson convinced her to give him a chance, and because this was probably approved when S4 was airing. By the time GoH was released, they forgot about it as well as forgetting to bring CHeese into relevancy in the next 2 years.

Don't hate the players. Hate the game.
