While we all sit around waiting to find out what happens with The Hub's shows, it looks like Hasbro is becoming even more tied with Disney via a new deal with the "Disney Princesses" line.  For those that have never followed their giant repertoire of animated royalty, this includes things like Frozen and Maleficent.  These guys will be teaming up to produce merchandise of the various characters included in those franchises. 

In the past, Hasbro has worked with these guys to create Disney versions of Monopoly, Life, and others.  According to our resident expert on the company, both have been loosely tied since 1954 over various merchandising contracts.  You can even find MLP Toys at Disney Parks.

Could this be a new home for Friendship is Magic? If it is syndicated, we have two big networks that would possibly want it between Cartoon Network and Disney.  The new "Discovery Family" channel will also continue to run a Hasbro controlled segment in the mornings.  Quite an interesting future is ahead of us!

Who knows, we may even see some ponified versions of Elsa and Anna if the stars align (I wish).

Full press release below! 

Thanks to Sleepysteve, Micheal,  and everyone else that sent this one in.

If you collect the Build a Bear plushies, the Gulf version of their Facebook page has revealed the upcoming Celestia's complete accessory pack. 

We haven't seen an exact release date, but their page is saying "Princess Celestia is all set to enjoy this weekend". 

Hopefully that is accurate! Thanks to Ruff Redeye for the heads up!

Is it too early for Christmas? Cause these things just keep happening already.  This one was found over at Entertainment Earth for 40 bucks with a September 2015 release date.  Yeah, that's a year from now.  Either it's a typo, or retail holiday season is getting absolutely ridiculous.

Thanks to jskr for the heads up, and get loads of stuff below the break!

A while back, Aurora listed these guys, 26 inch tall plushie ponies going for a little over $100.  Apparently these guys have started popping up in stores, with the one above purchased at Nordstrum. 

You can still get them online, but if you don't like that route, it looks like the usual locations that carry Aurora stuff might have them.

Thanks to jskr for the image!

We have been completely bombarded with loads of teasers, FAQS, toys, and even the entire soundtrack for Rainbow Rocks over the past few months, and the time has finally come for it to hit theaters for the masses.  Despite what you may or may not think about humanizing the ponies, It's still a huge deal for our pony starved selves during this hiatus. 

So, if you have been following the promo material, what do you want to see in the movie today? Quite a bit has been revealed, especially thanks to the soundtrack, but we still have loads of mysteries remaining.  I guess we will be flooded with it in a few hours!

And for you last minute people, the list of theaters is still available over here.

What you loved:

1. Shooting Star Press - Kidman's version was known as the "Seven Year Itch" and is almost always the first thing people mention when he's brought up.
2. Cruiserweight - Was heavily involved in one of the best divisions wrestling has ever seen. A 3-time Cruiserweight Champion, Kidman was known to steal the show on the regular.
3. Raven's Flock - He did a lot of staring down at the floor and itching himself during this time. It was a great stable that was Kidman's springboard to his solo career.
4. Hogan Win - Anytime an underdog can get a win over Hogan, it's a good thing.

Best comment comes via Yoopka:

"Shooting star press, solid contributor to the Cruiserweight division, great worker, early adopter of wrestling jorts."

What you loathed:

1. WWE Run - His entire run with the WWE was pretty uneventful. Yet another "WCW Guy" who wasn't given much once he switch companies.
2. Never Powerbombed - He could always counter that damn move, or could he?
3. Mic - Not horrible, but didn't really have that charisma factor when cutting his promos.
4. Sloppy - With high flying moves, comes high risk. Wouldn't say he botched a lot, but wasn't exactly crisp either.

Best comment comes via Mr. Deeds:

"I heard a Raven interview where he said that Kidman hated his character in the Flock and just wanted to be himself…Well Raven put it perfectly- He needed something to separate himself from the rest of the 'happy to be there' Cruiserweights for him to get over and gradually adjust his character to himself. Apparently, he always bitched about how he hated the gimmick, and - according to Raven - if he had committed himself to it more, the Flock might have gotten a bigger push (although I disagree, it was too crowded and you weren’t infiltrating the top at that time)."

On to the poll! With 177 votes, Kidman's average score is 3.4

Thanks, Cagesiders! Tomorrow's pick has become a scale.

Until then!
