>for now, this transition could be interesting to keep track because MLP, while having several generations on its track record, this transition to gen 5 is actually the first one in which there is a dedicated community and has cultural prominence.

A community did exist before, mainly around toys. How prominent and their relationship to ours I really need to explore as I've heard a lot of conflicting info. Including one guy once claiming that the term "brony" existed and expressing anger at the fandom stealing the term (this was on a random website years ago and I haven't be able to find it). All and all, though with the size and scope of our fandom it'll be very interesting to watch.
