The show is notable, but individual pieces of merchandise generally are not. Unlikely this has been covered substantially in independent reliable sources. (It's also misleading, stating that it's a card game when it's really just a card set.) Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 15:22, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak delete without prejudice Probably WP:TOOSOON. According to the article, the game isn't going to be publicly released until next week, and it doesn't look like there's coverage in WP:RS yet. But given how crazy people get about MLP fandom, I wouldn't at all be surprised if the topic merited an article even in a few weeks' time. --BDD (talk) 16:53, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete in 10 seconds flat. The existence of the card set will be fine in the merch section on the main show page (and perhaps if sourced, the nods to the fandon on the fandom page) but as just trading cards (not a game), there's no way this will be notable for a standalone article. --MASEM (t) 00:26, 7 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Not an article for deletion This is an article that covers a subject that i was very interested ti read about. The cards will be i circulation starting next week so bronys will be happy to refer to this article, i believe this to be a notable subject, a footnote on the MLP merchandise wouldn't be enough. As for the other issues, enterplay, bronycon, eqd, and many vendors have released statements about the cards, their popularity, the types of cards and the contest on the 'location' cards, those sources could be incorporated into the article. As for the lead, the about section could easily be made the lead. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.15.222.212 (talk) 19:55, 7 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Article fails WP:GNG; too soon for a standalone article. If it is found to be notable at a later time, then it would warrant a standalone article, but right now it isn't notable. - SudoGhost 19:01, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete without prejudice. Insufficient independent published sources extant at this time to clear GNG. Nothing that I see but adds and blog posts. Carrite (talk) 15:32, 9 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
