Why No MLP Float/Balloon in Macy's Parade?

I refuse to accept any possible reality where this was the 2013 float. If it is true I've lost a bit of faith in Hasbro *teardrop*

 

Ya, I'm pretty confident it isn't too, y'know.

Where'd you hear this from, anywho? I can find diddly squat on it at the moment.

 

Here. Just do a search for 'my little pony' on the page and it'll take you the portion where it's mentioned. You can also scroll through to find the section titled 'Floats, Balloons, and Special Guests'. It's in the third paragraph of that section. That's where I seen it was mentioned.

EDIT: What Mike said >.<

 

You all seem to keep forgetting...
Hasbro.
"We think with our wallets, so your kids can ask you for lots of pointless toys."
How many kids are gonna see a giant floating twilight and be like "Mommy, can you buy me THAT for Chanukkah?"

 

I predicted this, I no longer watch the Macy's Parade since there was no ponies last year. I didn't want to watch it all that time just to be disappointed.

 

Really? Just because they don't include ponies you aren't going to watch the biggest parade of the year with musical performances, circus acts, MANY MANY other balloons, marching bands, and dance routines?
I'm sorry if my thinking that's a silly reason to not watch it offends you, but it's a VERY silly reason.

 

I ain't offended /) I am just not into the parade period. None of the music artist interest me. But I am more into underground punk & metal so that might explain. I am sorry you are upset with me. *hugs*

 

I am not upset. I just was stating my opinion.
Thank you for explaining it, so I can understand it better.
