Ponyville Play Tent

For those of you planning on an expedition to up to Everest, or vacation to the middle of the Congo, Hasbro has you covered! FiM now has it's own full on tent, complete with specialized guardian ponies to keep the creepy crawlies out.

This product in particular was found at a store called "Canadian Tire".  It looks like the actual website doesn't carry it, so you might need to plan a separate Canadian vacation if you are stuck down outside the country. 

Now go plan a trip!

Thanks to Phoenix for the image.

CityFlyer502 said...

Wouldn't it be cool if somebody actually took that tent up to Everest?

Cameron Strathdee said...

BRB going to Crappy Tire

Travis Smith said...

No longer will I be scared of nature now. (goes into Everfree forest)

MEMJ0123 said...

Aw HELL yeah! More merch available in Canada!

Bombedrumbum said...

Too small, didnt sleep with ponies

Bombedrumbum said...

O__O that comment came out wrong

Xeddrief said...

Sadly it is kid-sized so not very practical.

Celestia said...

Interesting I suppose.

Bombedrumbum said...

I am a proud eagle scout with my own camping gear, but this tent looks more essential than anything I ever learned in Boy Scouts

ponyvangelist said...

It's a cute tent, but the tension in those bent-pole style tents can be dangerous for kids if they pull one end out of its corner pocket.

See? It doesn't matter what kids do, somebody's mom is always going to warn them they could put an eye out.

Mattatatta said...

I read Everest as Everfree...

SgtGarand said...

Judging by the distance between the shelves, I'd say that is pretty small.

Would have to cut it up into 4 sides and then bond those to a full size tent, or just buy several and frankenpony them together.


..i think most of us could at least sit in it. lol

Torchman said...

The ponies protect me as I sleep?

*Buys 50*

karrotline said...

3 yr olds dont need that >:O moooine

mafiastasher said...

@Xeddrief
It is if you assume the fetal position.

Travis Smith said...

@bombedrumbum
I agree with you on that my fellow scout.

Bombedrumbum said...

@SgtGarand I own a tent that has a smaller shelf size than that, yet much bigger

Bombedrumbum said...

@mafiastasger I slept like that once; it was after I had spent the night with a friend, who's sister wanted to watch Twilight: Eclipse. NEVER AGAIN.....

karrotline said...

wachu got against twilight --_

Flutterfan said...

Canadian Tire, sounds like a very manly place where grown men go to buy sparkplugs, motor oil or My Little Pony tents.

Travis Smith said...

This Canadian Tire place and it's tents and various parts for my mustang will make a welcomed edition to our empire.

SgtGarand said...

@Bombedrumbum Well if it has a greater width, then yea. That's how a lot of the full tents are in our Sporting Goods dept.

This one is a much smaller box than the play tents I usually see and deal with. I'd estimate this at a 15x14x3 sized box. But within my 6 years of retail, I am still amazed at how they can pack some of that stuff in small boxes so neatly because once they get taken out(by customers) it's near impossible to put them back. lol

Woof Hooves said...

canadian tire is a very goofy place,,its a lil of everything including the kitchen sink

maybe ill bring one back next trip up there

Bombedrumbum said...

@SgtGarand ah, you work at a Sporting Goods store? Which one?

yodelerty said...

Oh, yeah. I saw this last Saturday while I was working at good old Crappy Tire. I'll have to look for it again next time I work..

Bombedrumbum said...

@yodelerty you work there?!

Moth said...

3 things I noticed.
-Canadian Tire? Yay! (better that the creepy G3 Scootaloo toys they normally have)
-35$? That seems a little steep for a play tent.
-Fluttershy looks really sad...

Travis Smith said...

How much I'd this any way?
$34.99!
Must now call 867-5309

SgtGarand said...

@Bombedrumbum not quite a sporting goods store. But, it's walmart.
Definitely not the best of jobs...but, better than nothing. And that's why i'm going to college. xD

yodelerty said...

@Bombedrumbum

Yeah. I look for pony stuff while I'm there, but it's all G3 stuff (sans the pink Celestia and the tent).

Viridian said...

Take this out to a lake to stay warm and dry, bring along the body wash kit from yesterday to stay fresh and clean....all you need at that point is a MLP ice chest packed full of apples and you've got everything for a fantastic, fun, fully-furnished filly furlough!

AspectOfTheStorm said...

@Xeddrief

I don't care! I'll stuff my way inside!

Bombedrumbum said...

Yay, we have industrial worker bronies!!

Shadow Heart said...

Saw one in target two weeks ago. Now you find out? I'm disappointed in all of you.

Trot Fairweather said...

Canadian tire haha us Canadians get everything :P

ItsOkImAwesome said...

I can't fit in there?

Challenge accepted.

Aresd3 said...

And there's the really off-model Twilight vector again on the side of the tent.

mkb said...

Occupy Canterlot!

BlackWidower said...

It's only available here in Canada eh!? HA! Yes, that's what I call payback for the 'Canterlot only at Target' Bullshit, because there are no Targets in Canada!

getoman10 said...

First bathe with ponies, now sleep with them?

arguablyintelligent said...

> Works at Canadian Tire
> Friend (also brony) works there as well
> Friend actually stocks toy section
...
> Neither of us knew about this

Stormcaller said...

Excellent! Soon we will have everything we need to take over the world!

By buying many of these, we can construct a fort of tents, and live inside. We'll have lots of shampoos and such from the Big Lots bags. Our food shall be the fruit snacks. We will set up our new city and await the coming of the end of people and the rise of the bronies! Then, we shall take over the world!!!

MAHAHAHAHAHAhAAA

*falls over into sugar coma and twitches*

ArkaineDeao said...

@Viridian

Dat alliteration...I like it.

Travis Smith said...

@Stormcaller
That's why I built an empire over the mountains of Equestria.

Todd said...

Pony camping gear? You know what this means, right?

Paraderpy said...

*shiver*

Bad, boring childhood memories of Canadian Tire. Still, it just got 20% cooler from this.

Rainbow Dash's Ex-lover said...

Time to call my Canadian friends!

Octavia said...

The absolute perfect tent for any Brony camping trip!

A trip up Mount Everest or to the Congo... not as sure on. lol

frith said...

As I said in Nightly Roundup 174, you know, the horse slaughter one, this tent is very small but could be good as an indoor doghouse, if you have a dog. Otherwise I don't know what you'd do with it. Put a light bulb in it and hang it from the ceiling like a lamp shade? Make a hothouse for orchids out of it?

Srelio said...

Pitch a pony tent on top of Mt. Everest?

Distant Horizon said...

This. I must have this. I shall walk to Crappy Tire TOMORROW.

HeroInferno said...

Reminds me of when I used to camp in my back garden on summers nights. If I tried to use that on an everest expedition or something my head would be poking out.

malrai said...

I am willing to open up a temporary Shopping Service to Canadian Tire to get these and ship them out to people who want them, for a small fee. If anyone would be interested, drop me a line at my deviantart @ malrai.

Tyger said...

I live 5 blocks from Canadian Tire...

MUST. RESIST.

b4nd1t said...

Buy it with Canadian Tire Money.

Jay6 said...

Sure, there may be a Canadian Tire just a very short drive away from here, but... I don't feel like buying it. I hardly ever go out camping anyways, and well, I don't think I'll be able to FIT in that little tent.

Jena McCoy said...

Okay...it's not crazy to want to buy that and set it up in my 400 sq. foot apartment, and sleep in IT instead of my bed...right?

youtube|UsurperKingZant said...

Ewwww, Humans on the packaging. Gross gross gross!

Tomasaki said...

I saw these at a Target, so they're in the states.

Delta Takahashi said...

Hah, these thing actually made it to Hawaii.
Saw 'em in Target.

I shall make an epic blanket fort, and this tent will be its central hub.

hitsugaya lover said...

this pony shit has to stop

Koji said...

I thought this was the ball-pit at first, which my 2 year old daughter absolutely loves. She kept trying to make me go in it... and I tried, oh how I tried -_- But alas, I am too big... stupid child sized children's toys.

Sheffield Makoto said...

I see Posey, but I think she has Fluttershy's cutie mark. Hard to see.

Dantes_Grill said...

do they sell car parts there?

Still Apony said...

Gonna go occupy with this.

NotAGoodUsername360 said...

As a Canadian, I find the use of quotation marks in that sentence downright HILARIOUS. You Americans and your confusion at us is so cute! ^_^ It gives me that same warm, fuzzy feeling I get whenever I see an American tourist attempting to use a Canadian vending machine and trying to find the bill slot. XD

Midnight said...

WHOO HOO! Canadian Tire is literally down the street from me.. It's to bad my son has a race car, red black and white themed room.. My boyfriend would never go for me buying it for myself.. lol.. Oh well, a new reason to bribe him to have more babies with me! lmao

NotAGoodUsername360 said...

@Dantes_Grill Yup. They also sell sporting equipment and construction stuff (eg. home renovations).

Suburbanbanshee said...

One of the disadvantages of bed design leaving behind canopies, bed curtains, bed niches, etc., is that on really cold winter nights, your body can be warm while your head and face is still cold. When the differential gets big enough, you wake up. If you try to cover your head with the pillows or the covers, you have to worry about carbon dioxide buildup.

If you turned the tent into a sort of mini-canopy at the head of your bed, you would not have this problem at night.

Krudge said...

@Flutterfan

That's pretty much what it is. Basically a hardware store/car stuff store/random shit store.

~Strawberry smoothie~ said...

Fu*k kids! *sneaks inside the tent* And I'm not coming out! Leave the cupcakes in front of the tent!

SonOfTheNorthe said...

Well, when I become a hobo, I know what my shelter is going to be!
