And here i am, back from my visit to the Hasbro's offices here in Milan^_^



I was so thrilled to be there! This is what i saw when i've reached the floor^_^



And this are the walls in the corridor^_^





I was already shaking ehehe and then i've entered the main hall^_^





A lot of toys were displayed on the shelves.



But the decal on the walls was breathtaking! A lot of space was dedicated to out favorite ones!






Then i've met the head of the Girl/Boys toy lines at Hasbro Italy!
She has been suuuuuper nice!!!
She was very happy to meet me! And amazingly she has been very supportive of the adult fanbase!

We chatted a little bit and the she walked me into the dream room...

An entire room full of toys were the main focus was on MLP!

She told me that 2012 and 2013 will be strategic for the line and they want to focus all the forces on MLP!

Here's some pics of the room^_^ With new releases! (febraury here i Italy and Europe!)









And a special pic for all the Luna fans out there^_^



When we left the room, i've noticed a known face in one of the offices... do you know him? Eheheh!



He talks with baby voice tho...lol!

And here the last pic... the horror! The Horror!!!



(i can't smile in pics...grrrrr....)


But it's not over yet...
here the answers of the questions!!!!

- Celestia is pink, and she will stay this way, because the line is intended fro the little girls (i know iknow, but it sounds correct^_^)

- Blind bags: no word on american market, but they will be release in March in Italy from wave 2 (purple bag). No words about the wave 3 or 4, but she was aware of the newest ones, so we just have to wait

- Minty: she showed me the Special pack with RD and Skywishes and probably Minty will be an extra pony too, but it's not written in stone yet. Also, probably Skywishes will be a Euro exclusive.

- Boy ponies. Well, unfortunately, she couldn't confirm anything. But she told me not to despair. Let's keep our fingers crossed^_^


And lastly, i've asked her something was very surprised nobody told me to ask in my previous post.
But she asked me not to tell it for the moment.

I will only tell you to keep an eye for episodes 26/27/28 of the second season of FIM.
And yes, there will be *o** *r** **i* c***a***r*.


That's all folks!
So i came home with my bag of gifts and with a biiiiiig smile and a secret...eheheh!

What do you think guys?

Hugs!M!

p.s.: bonus pics... this are the doors for men and women toilets^_^

Mega congrats! All this info is amazing, and I LOVE the pictures!

Oh wow! That's such an awesome set of offices, and thank you for taking so many photos (eeee Luna)!

That's great to know that the Blind Bags will eventually be here, and that the whole range is going to (eventually) make it to the European market.

So what's the secret phrase about then?
*o** *r** **i* c***a***r*
more ....something something something... ?

So that's a very creative office!! It looked so cool!

Nice bathroom doors, lol. XD How fun would it be to work at Hasbro??? I mean, not just with ponies... but the way it is set up looks great. I'm sure they have to work hard though!

That's so encouraging, that they answered all your (and our) questions. And you get a secret, too.... I'm so jealous. I'm going to have to decode that message of yours. I wonder if what you asked her has to do with the mysterious Princess Candace and the wedding? Hmmm....

Now I am super excited for 2012. I really -really- hope that boy ponies are coming. Eventually. If they do, I'll probably end up buying heaps of them. D: I already love the blind bag boys.

Anyway, thanks for the pics! Sounds like you had an awesome time.

What an amazing visit!

Can't wait to find out the secret!

Fun! Thanks for sharing!

looooooooooooooooooove
thanks for sharing your adventure!!

wow, what a trip! I Your pictures are fantastic

I bet you will not be forgetting that tour anytime soon

Eheheh!
Thank you:)

It was really awesome!
And the secret is not big, it's HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE!!!!!!!! Eheheh!

Many many many of us will be exstatic about it!!! I promise;)

What episode is the series at at the moment?

I can decode the last word as characters. Not sure about the other two.

The secret...i need to know! D :

Is it in English or Italian? XD I think I have figured out the first three letters if that's the case, but they don't make much sense (lol... it's probably wrong then).

OMG this is so great! It must have been so exciting to visit. You are so lucky! Thanks so much for showing pics and for the info they let you share! I can't wait for Minty to be released.

(will now spend the rest of the afternoon trying to figure out the secret phrase )
