Puzzles are supposed to be a large timesink you can put together with a bunch of friends, this seems more like a momentary diversion for a single toddler.
kids these days...*waves cane in the air and complains about needing to walk uphill in the snow to school and back each day*
What about a 1 piece puzzle? Though I wouldn't mind a 1000 piece puzzle of Octavia, Roseluck and Colgate. I would totally glue it and frame it in my foyer.
Or wait, no, an 8'x12' vector picture of Colgate! That would make me a happy pony! Colgate needs love too guys!
Thousand piece puzzles? No. Thousand piece 3D puzzles? Take it! My love, my devotion and all of my bits! I'll even throw in the moon! JUSTGIVEITTOMENOW!
@StarLite Majority of their customers? No, it's been rather evenly split between adults and little girls for years, though admittedly, the actual customers have been more adults than girls, since they hold the power of the bits. The intended target demographic has always been little girls, however, even with the influx of older fans in the last year.
People completely underestimate children. They have just about the same brain as any adult, and are just as intelligent. They are only lacking experience.
My kids (4 & 5) were able to handle a 150 piece Toy Story 3 puzzle just fine (it took some time, but that's kinda the point, right?). This puzzle would be appropriate for 2 year olds. For the age group that the show is aimed at, it needs to be at least 500 pieces.

WHERE CAN I BUY THIS
ReplyDeleteThat is far too complex for my tiny mind to comprehend.
ReplyDeleteThree hours fourty six minutes and twenty three seconds later: I give up.
ReplyDeleteBOY, DOES THIS LOOK HARD.
ReplyDeleteMy god! Why did they have to make it so difficult?
ReplyDeleteLmao, this is like, what, a six/ten piece puzzle? Reminds me of those little Pokemon puzzles of Johto I used to have.
ReplyDeleteand I thought my Little Mermaid puzzle with 500 pieces was too easy when I was a kid .____.
ReplyDeleteThe sad thing? This is kinda on par with my skill level.
ReplyDelete...I was never very good at puzzles.
Better not be reports of missing pieces then...
ReplyDeleteKnow what would be awesome? If awesome art like that of Moe or John Joseco got puzzlefied. That's friggin Thomas Kinkade level stuff there.
ReplyDeleteCmon, Hasbro, strike a deal with your fan artists!
No this is too much, my brain can only handle MIP if I'm passively watching it on TV.

ReplyDeleteMake a 1000 piece puzzle and I'll buy it. hasbro REALLY need to remember who the majority of their customers now are.
ReplyDeleteBut I think this is quite fitting in with the "Kids these days" comment.

It's rather amusing that the only way to find out about all of these merchandise is by hearsay and people sending in reports.
ReplyDeleteA 20 piece jigsaw?! What /were/ you thinking?
ReplyDeleteI'd probably lose interest after piece #4.
Though with a 1000 piece puzzle I'd be hooked.

I know its for kids n all, but could they have made it where there are more pieces? I'd rather have a hundred piece puzzle.
ReplyDeleteOh my DEITIES this is the pinnacle of difficulty! The 1000 piece puzzle of the Eiffel Tower I did when I was 7 has nothing on this.
ReplyDeleteA puzzle? Thats great but I really want a plushie. I mean I want to spoon with my wafiu twilight... what?
ReplyDeleteIf they made a puzzle with 500+ pieces, I'd buy. :)
ReplyDeleteeven if it's easy, you get a giant, cheap, pics
ReplyDeleteso fair trade
I hope they have thousand piece puzzles,the one pictured is simply too hard for me to complete.
ReplyDelete>mfw people are complaining about pony merch
ReplyDeleteBUT I THOUGHT MOAR PONIES WERE GOOD
@Amorphic
ReplyDelete...The majority of their customers are little girls, just as they always have been.
Thousand piece puzzles? No.

If it was 2500+ pieces, I'd definitely buy a pony puzzle.
ReplyDeleteAwrgh damnit! I need 1000+ puzzles to complete :<
ReplyDeleteI purchased this at the Real Canadian Super Store, I think they have some Super Stores in the states.
ReplyDelete@UltimaShadow7
ReplyDeleteI had the full 150 pokemon puzzle as a kid that was like 700 pieces. Took me forever and it was huge

ReplyDeleteI want this. No lie.
ReplyDeleteWhat I love about this fandom is that soon after this we'll start seeing news posts about bronies making their own 10,000+ piece puzzles.
ReplyDeleteYes, it looks kinda easy but at least it isn't trolling you with 1000 same looking sky pieces or 1000 same looking grass pieces.
ReplyDeleteHah just 1 buck?, anyways they really should start uping their merch to 30 year old minds, they still think this is for little girls xD?
ReplyDeleteMeh time to wait for the fandom to make the 1 million puzzle piece, just like the labyrinth one
O Btw a kid actually can think clearer than an adult, due no pressure on his brain paying taxes or memories of awkward moments
