Pinkie Pie Invades Time Square

Source
At first I thought there was no way this could be legit. A giant Pinkie Pie in times square? Looks shopped to me!

A trip over to Earthcam has confirmed it though.  Pinkie Pie completely shattered the 4th wall, and is now displaying her cupcake crumb covered visage for all of New York to see. 

It is actually a part of a rolling Hasbro ad that includes Mr. Potatohead and a few others.  Regardless, PINKIE PIE!

Pinkie what are you doing. Go back through the 4th wall and entertain yourself while it's repaired- wait DON'T TOUCH THAT!

yetti said...

heh, new world order? ponies :D

Nymo said...

I assume it's a part of the NY Toy Fair going on this weekend, being that other Hasbro products are being showcased on there...

SpongetheSquid said...

Holy shit, brb new york

graypawdeputy said...

I wish that was there during Thanks giving

CityFlyer502 said...

Hmm. I believe a trip to Times Square is in order for this brony. Lucky I just happen to live a train ride away from it.

Shho13 said...

The only thing missing is "Best Pony" underneath her.

PonyPonyPonyBrony said...

MAAAAAAANEHATTAN!

It's only a matter of time before the Ponypocalypse, huh? Soon, Ponies will be free to roam and the world will be powerless to resist.

This comment is not tongue-in-cheek. *applelie face*

Shadow Heart said...

It's more beautiful than I could have ever imagined!

Pinkie is 2nd best pony

Lulu is best pony ever, sorry Pinkie. *hugs Luna plushie*

jessewq said...

So many invasions.

Flutterfan said...

The Hasbro commercial is repeating every 3 minutes.

RavensDagger said...

Just plain bloody insane. It's going to be easy to spot New York bronies now. Just look for people pointing at Pinkie.

SD Luca said...

@Flutterfan

Thanks for the link! I wonder if there's any audio to the ad.

Graveheart said...

R.I.P. Fourth Wall. Next time, stay out of Pinkie Pie's way.

Namatophobic said...

I saw this at Christmas vacation when I went to NY. Thought you guys knew. I guess I should email something like this next time to make sure. I have a picture saved on my phone I could have just sent.

Flutterfan said...

Sorry for posting this again, but for the people who missed it. Go here to watch this LIVE. It's coming on every 5 minutes.

carback99 said...

ill imagine spider man crashing in to it...lol

Twifight Sparkill said...

Is it me, or does a giant Pinkie Pie instill equal portions of adolescent joy AND pants-wetting fear? I'm impressed! And scared!

Beatfox said...

@Flutterfan
Looks like it's just looping the same Sprint ad over & over again now. I did catch it earlier, though.

Flutterfan said...

Seems like Hasbro has settled on Pinkie Pie being the mascot to the show. I always thought it'd be Rainbow Dash.

Roderick said...

The aponylypse is neigh!!!

Travis Smith said...

@Flutterfan
As much as that would be awesome, Pinkie applies more to the young children who watch the show.

Flutterfan said...

@Beatfox Yeah looks like it's out of the rotation now.

That was incredible. So this has been airing for sometime now? NY Bronies you gotta tell us when stuff like this happens!! :)

SilentRunning said...

The city will be locked down and quarantine protocols will be activated... just to be sure.

ninonybox said...

Sweet googaly moogaly, the internet had a massive leak.

Hydra said...

Oh wow shes there shes really really there!!!

Beatfox said...

@Flutterfan
Rainbow Dash has always popped up a lot in The Hub's advertising, though.

I think Pinkie tends to be more attractive to Hasbro for merchandise advertising purposes, given her color. (lol racism)

abcd said...

Where's Pinkie Pie...?
Here I am!

Haileo said...

Awesome! I live pretty close to Times Square! Ponies in the Big Apple, woot!

Sethisto said...

@Discord

Great, another username imposter.....

Kether said...

I'm of the believing that the 4th wall maintenance team just installed a door for Pinkie's exclusive use. I mean, half of the reality budget has already gone in repairing that wall too much times!

She still manages for some cracks to appear on it, though...

Pyrobug said...

Oh god, she's fifteen stories tall and made of photons now. We're doomed.

ViewtifulSteve said...

It's official, we are the new rulers of this pathetic planet.

We attack Mars next.

Harwick said...

I see that skank Barbie gets a whole segment of the ad to herself, while Pinkie, Mr. Potato Head, Moneybags and Optimus Prime all have to share another.

You just know she's sleeping with the president of marketing at Hasbro.

Harwick said...

@Beatfox
It came back up following the Sprint ad. They likely cycle through.

Unknown said...

....waht camera is it? i can't find her WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!

Pinkie Swirl said...

@Unknown http://timessquare.com/Business/Nasdaq/Times_Square_Camera/

this is just pure epicness :D

pokemon detective said...

pinkie: hello every pony
both danny and molly: who in dream valley is that

DPV111 said...

I am very glad I do not live in NYC because people would be wondering why I am hugging a wall right now.

RainbowDash4LIFE said...

yes.....YES......YES!!!!!!!!!!!

Masquerade said...

The last time I saw that sign, it was being used for a car advertisement. Same one, too, over and over and...

This is obviously a much better use.

Mike said...

Just one more reason to go to Bronycon?

NYCLOAMR said...

The afternoon of the day following BroNYCon January a pack of us were walking North up Seventh Ave into Times Square and when we saw it we just stopped dead and stared...

The Invincible said...

That awkward moment when you're standing in Times Square, and no one around you understands why you're screeching like a baby bat that's even more terrified than usual.

Travis Smith said...

The awkward moment your walking, stop and see
Then spontainusly start singing on of the songs as people stare or a few who sing along

MyBoyJ said...

@Mike

The next Bronycon is in New Jersey unfortunately.

Blayze Kohime said...

WHAT HAS SCIENCE DONE?!?!

Sethisto said...

^Now that's the Discord I know and love

John said...

Just saw it on the Times Square live feed (thanks for the link, guys)! And it's the Nasdaq sign too, that is legit!

bored0stiff said...

It's like 1984, only instead of Big Brother, there's Pinkie and instead of forced labour, there's forced parties!

shadowfalcon76 said...

I, for one, welcome our new party pony overlord!

Hasbro knows what's up. Picking the Best Pony™ to represent the series. GO PINKIE PIE!!!

Mojo said...

brb walking to Times Square.

Derpestia said...

That's pretty awesome would of been better had it been more about FiM as it is to me with that it's basically just a add for there toyline.

snowfi6916 said...

Today: New York.

Tomorrow: ???

The after that: Profit.

Jember said...

This is old news. They've had that there for months.

Ardashir said...

@MyBoyJ Sure you didn't mean to say "the Aponyclypse"?

Derpy Brony said...

Pinkie, you're so random.

clone said...

Up from the decks... thirty stories high... free as might... her head in the sky! Pinkie Pie! Pinkie Pie!

Flare Tumble said...

GYAHAHAHAHA!!!! All is going acording to plan! We are getting ever closer to pony judgement day!! Quickly to the lab we must work ever harder to help complete the transition!

rainbows said...

FreezingShock said...

Damn, you Americans get all the cool stuff. At least I might be able to get a Scootaburger soon :P

aki1993 said...

Ten said...

Pinkie Pie is slowly dominating the world with her 4th wall powers, go Pinkie!

James Corck said...

If she breaks through that TV Screen Godzilla is going to have nothing on her D:

MyBoyJ said...

@Ardashir

Or maybe Ponygeddon, or The End of Graze.

PokeBrony said...

I think ISMBOF's song my aclopalypse would be better.
