Now that's just plain dumb. 
Why would the production staff of the show embrace a movement that encourages pedophilia? ETA: A large number of the staff are there doing Q&As this weekend. Hell, Hasbro even sponsored a Brony event back in May. |

But the fact that its animation (Which to most people, puts it in a category of "For children") Its considered strange that adults are fans of the show. |

At my internship months back, I used to keep a couple of the MLP:FiM figurines I've accumulated on my desk, and I remember one day one of the PhDs I worked with walking by and fiddling with one, and then humming the opening bars of the theme song.
Wow, I remember hating My Little Pony when I was like 6 years old I was like "woah what?" and he remarked that he remembered hearing the theme song over and over again when his little girl would watch the original TV show in the 80s, and apparently the first little bit of the current show's theme song is the same as the old one's. I never saw Star Blazers. I watched a lot of Robotech and Voltron when I was really little. ETA: also yeah, the show that 'bronies' like is a more recent incarnation of MLP, called 'My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic', which started airing in... late 2010, I think? An internet friend of mine got me hooked on it toward the beginning of last year, well before season 2 started airing. |

Hell and fuck yes.
The entire corpus of Robotech is on Netflix, I need to watch it all from start to finish, at some point. I'm kind of shocked how much some of the mecha in the scenes of the units arming up look like Warhammers and Wasps from Battletech. Didn't some company eventually sue the shit out of FASA for obviously just outright stealing designs?

The Wasp is so plainly just a veritech fighter in battleoid mode that it's a little embarassing. I used to have these huge "blueprint" posters of the uh... Wasp, Battlemaster, Warhammer, and Locust on my wall when I was young. Coolest shit ever. From wikipedia: "The visual design of the earliest line of BattleMechs were taken from Macross and other anime, including many signature images. In later years FASA abandoned these images, and it was common speculation by fans that the decision was the result of a lawsuit brought against them by Playmates and Harmony Gold over the use of said images.[5] No official broke the silence until 2007, after FASA had sold the BattleTech intellectual property to WizKids Games. Under license from them, the Classic BattleTech line developer for Fantasy Productions, Randall N. Bills explained that FASA had sued Playmates over the use of images owned by FASA, but received no compensation, even though Playmates was ordered to stop using the images in question. After realizing how the use of licensed images made them vulnerable to lawsuits and afraid that such a suit would bankrupt the company, FASA made the decision to only use images owned by them and them alone. The BattleMechs taken from the various anime sources were then considered "Unseen". " 
ETA: Finally got around to actually reading the article linked in the OP. Bronycon sounds like it'd be a lot of fun, but I'm a shut-in, and I hate traveling. This girl dressed as Vinyl Scratch, though, is god damned adorable

Well that analogy would be partially true if the show wasn't based around a girl's 1980 toy line. 
It isn't the animation at all, or that it's even about a toy line. It's about that it's based on a girls toy line from the 1980's. And not even a very...good or interesting toy at that. Barbie is something that lots of people are interested in and can relate to, not "My Little Pony"... My Little Pony was about one of the worse toys ever invented in the 1980's, basically cheap plastic hollow sparkly crap with long plastic hair...that you combed. You couldn't pose them, you couldn't adjust them, and they never had anything cooler than a collar or barn for a play set, WTF? They just stand around looking cute and you comb their hair... STOOPIST TOY EVER!! At least with the 12" Barbie you could have GI Joe beat the shit out of that metro-fag Ken and bend Barbie over the hood of her pink Corvette! When grown men find themselves interested in things for 4-8 year old girls, it borders on something creepy and perverse. |

FASA had the US gaming rights to the designs from Harmony Gold, for the mecha that appeared in Macross (Robotech), and several other shows. BatleTech was originally to be just a remix of those mecha designs in a universe that was more or less Five Star Stories rebaked. This was back in the day when stuff from Japan was exotic, ha! Harmony Gold, Tatsunoko (the original creators) and FASA (and to some degree Palladium Books) eventually all got back into a snarl about it later on, with incompatibilities in US and Japan copyright laws, plus the newer media of a new cartoon and movie possibly, and all kinds of other messes. FASA folded, the IP for BattleTech now resides with Catalyst Labs. BattleTech expurgated all their borrowed designs from new materials, replacing them with new designs, and went their own way. Palladium Books now has a revised Robotech RPG out that is much closer in details to the original Macross source materials. The new cartoon died after two episodes I think it was. |
