Yes, it's real! The strange things is that when I went to work today (I work in Pasadena live in Garden Grove), I was trying to guess where the billboard might be. LA is a BIG place... but I thought of the 101 freeway corridor by Barham Blvd., which is the street that Warner Bros. studio is on, as well as an entrance to Universal City... an obvious place, but likely a VERY expensive site.
Then I saw the first picture, and even though I couldn't see a street sign, I knew where it was! I headed over there, and while I was taking pictures, another Brony showed up on a bike! He had a RBD t-shirt and gave me a high-five Brohoof! We took pictures for each other, and went our separate ways...
I love that Hub/Hasbro have done this, such epic win.
My only question is, why don't they have some kind of accompanying web coverage to go with it?
If you type "Bridlemaids" into google (who still does that?), it comes up with a number of items, none of which link back to Hub/Hasbro.
Maybe it's only meant to be a shoutout to Bronies; but in the interests of recruiting more Bronies, wouldn't it have been better to have google search return something useful?
Perhaps an enterprising Brony could get onto this...
At any rate, let's see more Pony billboards! Much love to Hub!
Actually, if you type in bridlemaids on google, the first two links clearly are about My Little Pony. I think Hasbro knew fans would create the content online, anything from their part would have been completely unnecessary.
i just LOVE YOU girls !! ^-^ awesom !! america is wierd thew but its pretty awesom !! id likr to see the same post in tel aviv o m f g !!! im so amaisesd !!!!
hahah i woke up in the morning with a blury face,then decided to read the news paper(equestria daily,LOL)...then i saw this pic..rubbed my eyes and i was like WTF!!?this was a great starter for my day!XD GHAHHAHAHAH...i nvr thought hasbro or any related companies to mlp would actually accept the brony-comunity!XDXDXDX3
@Anonymous I do believe your presumptions should be quelled. This doesn't affect the Animation nor the quality of the show as it is. Lauren is confident in those who still left at studio B. This was simply just he marketing team doing their job.
Cupcakes becoming canon? Please...Choose a more believable hyperbole next time.
I demand one of these be placed in Times Square NY! Hell, scratch that. Make a 30 second clip of the show to be placed on one of the random building screens!
Hey guys, guess what! Yesterday, we actually went to see this billboard! We were in California, and had nothing to do, so I thought, "Why not?" Believe me, that billboard is REAL. I've seen it for myself.
I'd like to thank Crimson Valor for putting up the address to the building. You made this possible for us, Crimson. Kudos to you.
...I just read about this. Now I know where that image comes from (the lineup of five serious/angry-looking ponies, plus Pinkie.) Holy...shite. The amazingness of this show and its creators and fans will never cease to astound me. EGAD. Pony billboards are needed along all the highways of the nation, plz.
And funnily enough, I just happen to be wearing brick wall-printed socks at this very moment. xD
Amazing...another shout-out (really, how many kids are going to, or should, get that?!) Lovely spot for it, too, except that...I live in New Jersey. 3'= Otherwise you know I'd be there snapping photos of myself gleefully pointing at it like a little freak. And though I am road trippin' to Colorado next month, I doubt my ability to convince the rest of my posse to add Cali for that purpose. xD Bah, the folks in those vehicles don't know how lucky they are to have set eyes even fleetingly upon such ponilicious glory!
Yeah, I do get a sort of 'Sex & the City' vibe as well. 8-) Actually, I wonder whether the film itself has that feeling. I'm looking forward to seeing it.
Amazing billboard!! O___O *w* Now if only there could be a series of them à la South of the Border, leading us down the road towards Equestria...+0
This is the most awesome thing ever! Even more awesome than the mysterious pony-related thing I am going pull of this year! If you ask me, they should post billboards of this in every state of the US and every province of Canada!

I wouldn't bet on it staying up more than a month. That particular billboard seems to change often.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's real!

ReplyDeletenext thing you know cupcakes is canon.

ReplyDeleteso awesome doesn't come close to how awesome this is

ReplyDeleteYou haven't seen "Party of One" have you, Pinkymina goes full-on Hannibal Lecter
By Celestia's Mane! My day is now complete!
ReplyDeleteI need to apologize to my sister, I thought this was fake XD
ReplyDeleteponies are now inmortalized in L.A. *gasp* YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!
ReplyDeleteWell... this should get a lot of people curious about the show. :D
ReplyDeletehahah i woke up in the morning with a blury face,then decided to read the news paper(equestria daily,LOL)...then i saw this pic..rubbed my eyes and i was like WTF!!?this was a great starter for my day!XD GHAHHAHAHAH...i nvr thought hasbro or any related companies to mlp would actually accept the brony-comunity!XDXDXDX3
ReplyDeleteLooked at it on G-maps but it was only Transformers Prime shit. This is cool though.

They don't have these in Georgia, do they...? :(
ReplyDeleteYES this is the best billboard EVAH
ReplyDeleteThey should have one of these bad girls in orlando where I see all these crazy billboards by disney and universal. I would be so estatic if they do!
ReplyDeletethat looks like it's just by Universal Citywalk...
ReplyDeletegoing to see if i can see it this weekend
I demand one of these be placed in Times Square NY! Hell, scratch that. Make a 30 second clip of the show to be placed on one of the random building screens!
ReplyDeleteFor pony world domination~!
But will it do its job: that is grow the local audience measurably, such that Nielson and thus the studio execs can see it?
ReplyDeleteThat aside: "HUMAN POSES!!! AAARRRRGH!!!"
Does anybody else get a "Sex and the City" vibe from the billboard?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I drive a 72 foot long commercial vehicle, and that doesn't look a street I could even hope to squeeze a big truck in.
ReplyDeleteNevermind I haven't been to the west coast in years.
Put one in San Antonio! Please!
Dude. Whoever drives past that everyday must be very lucky.
ReplyDeleteOMG, I thought that the image on top was shopped.
ReplyDeleteyay.......the best ..im a man and im watching MLP FIM
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a really uncomftorble way to stand rarity?
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteWise brony is wise? Dude, I think you're the oldest brony here, and I think that's awesome.
Ponies know no (age) limits.
OH GOSH YES!!!
ReplyDeleteNOW PEOPLE WHO DRIVE BY WILL BE AFFECTED!! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
*Crazed Laugh*
ReplyDeleteThat is fucking cool. I mean, holy shit, if I saw that Billboard, I would shit myself.
An ad like this, might be the first time they started actively marketing this show outside the target audience. Can I get a "Woot woot!"?
ReplyDeleteI saw this pic before, and i thought it was fake. this show is just THIS FREAKIN' AWESOME!
ReplyDeletewhy they look like gangsta D:
ReplyDeleteflutterniga isnt like that
billboards are illegal here D:
ReplyDeleteI like the cottage it's under. Gives a cozy feel.

ReplyDeleteGreat heading i like the pictures but lack of coloring, actually i wanted read something about it but i found nothing any way superb.
