Trust me, I know how you feel with all these dang leaks. Don’t focus too much on them as they can be false unless the Big Cheese says so.

If what they cared about was the show, possibly. But again, it’s a 22 minute commercial. If the toys aren’t selling, and people aren’t watching, it’s time to reboot.

Hasbro first and foremost sells toys. Having a new show without a decade of backstory will attract a new age group of young girls who went from ages 5-8 to ages 15-18 in the span of FiM. Those girls, who are the primary reason the show exists, are too old to buy new ponies. They are the reason Hasbro is making Gen 5. It’s the same reason DC and Marvel do reboots; they want a new audience, the old one doesn’t look lucrative enough.
 
In all of this cold calculus, Hasbro never even considers the odd fandom the show generates for their toy sales. Mostly because we can never approach the buying power of parents for their young girls. We did manage to convince them to keep this iteration of ponies going for far longer than they had originally planned. But it was never going to last forever.

That one’s easy. Sonic maxes out at 3000 MPH. But Rainbow can travel 7,610 MPH. Death Battle has spent a stupid amount of time documenting speeds of characters.

Wow! lol. I’ve seen that one, it’s pretty good. I grew up watching transformers.
 
But the funniest thing to me is when people compare Rainbow Dash to Sonic and fight over who’s faster. 😃
