===International Day of Friendship===
[[File:MLP_BFFs_-_Transformers.jpg|200px|thumb|right|''You're the best friend <br> That I ever had'']]
On [[July 30]], [[2015]], [[Hasbro]] announced that they had made custom pony versions of "best friends" [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]] along with {{w|Sesame Street|characters}} {{w|Clueless (film)|from}} {{w|I Love Lucy|other}} {{w|Laverne & Shirley|franchises}} in honor of the International Day of Friendship. Both ponies have the [[Autobot]] [[insignia]] as their cutie marks. These ponies were never released to general retail or as convention exclusives, having been created specifically for this event.

===Crossover Collection===
[[File:MyLittlePrime.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Catering to [[GEEWUN]]ers in ''two'' fandoms!]]
* '''My Little Prime''' ([[2020]])
:Part of a series featuring crossovers between MLP and other properties including ''[[Ghostbusters]]'', ''Power Rangers'', and ''Dungeons & Dragons'', My Little Prime is a pony representation of [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] using a mold inspired by Generation 1 of the equine property. Like the International Day of Friendship customs, he has an Autobot insignia as his cutie mark. The figure has no articulation aside from a ball-jointed tail.

===''The Fabulous Ponymaker''===
[[File:PonyMakerOptimus01.jpg|right|upright=1.4|thumb|And thus the fandom was presented with a new argument: "[[Trukk not munky|Trukk not Pone!]]"]]

Available as an online game on Hub Network's website beginning in summer of 2012, ''[http://www.hubworld.com/my-little-pony/shows/friendship-is-magic/games/mlpfim-ponymaker The Fabulous Ponymaker]'' allows you to "build your own custom pony" based on the series ''{{w|My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic}}''.  One of the options allows you to build a pony using [[Transformers (film)|Movie]] [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]]-styled parts like a helmet, chestplate and boots. (Despite the presence of {{w|The Aquabats}}' logo among the cutie marks, there is no [[Autobot]] symbol. Sad.)

==Notes==
[[File:MLPtrollOptimusDoll.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|right]]

* Various ''My Little Pony'' media have made allusions to the ''Transformers'' franchise in the past:
** Optimus Prime made an [[easter egg]] appearance in [[IDW Publishing]]'s ''My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic'' #2 as a toy in the possession of a Cave Troll.
** The [[media:Tf sound.ogg|transformation noise]] can be heard in the early minutes of the ''My Little Pony'' feature film ''{{w|My Little Pony: Equestria Girls|Equestria Girls}}'', as Pinkie Pie unfolds herself in a manner similar to a transformation. The sound was lifted from the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|G1 cartoon]], as the sound of metal feet hitting the ground is heard. The sound can also be heard in the first act of the {{w|My Little Pony: The Movie (2017 film)|2017 movie}} when [[fandom:mlp:Grubber|Grubber]] unfolds his loudspeaker.
** In Volume 2 of ''My Little Pony: The Manga'', [[Doctor Hooves]] mentions saving a Cybertronian version of [[Fluttershy]] from the [[Sharkticon (species)|Sharkticon]] pits on [[Quintessa (planet)|Quintessa Prime]].
** In Volume 3 of ''The Manga'', the [[Matrix of Leadership]] is one of several items retrieved by [[Discord (MLP)|Discord]] during a scavenger hunt organized by Fluttershy (along with a [[Furby]] and [[Cobra Commander]]'s helmet).

* Many veteran ''Transformers'' voice actors from numerous series have lent their voices to many different generations of ''My Little Pony'' cartoons, including [[Frank Welker]], [[Susan Blu]], [[Charlie Adler]], [[Victor Caroli]], [[Peter Cullen]], [[Richard Newman]], [[Venus Terzo]], [[Brian Drummond]], [[Tabitha St. Germain]], [[Tara Strong]], [[Nicole Oliver]], [[Maurice LaMarche]], [[Trevor Devall]], [[Mark Acheson]], [["Weird Al" Yankovic]], [[Ken Jeong]], [[Phil LaMarr]], and way too many others to count.

*[http://joeguide.com/interviews/buzzdixon.shtml In an interview], [[Buzz Dixon]] claimed that his initial "punch-up" of the script for the original ''My Little Pony: The Movie'' would have featured the ponies encountering characters from ''[[The Transformers (cartoon)|The Transformers]]'', among other Hasbro franchises.

:''At one point one of the Little Ponies had to go looking for...something or someone, I forget. I suggested she encounter some of the Transformers and [[G.I. Joe (team)|Joes]] in her search, specifically, a scene where she flies up to [[Shipwreck]] who is drinking some amber fluid from a bottle.''
:''Shipwreck would just stare at her in bug-eyed disbelief and she’d fly on, then Shipwreck would smash the bottle, take his cap off his head, put his left hand over his heart and raise his right hand in an oath, muttering frantically under his breath. [[Hasbro]] said, "Very funny. No."''

*[http://buzzdixon.com/media/the-many-faces-of-hector-ramirez/ In another interview], Dixon revealed that the globetrotting pony would have encountered [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] before meeting the drunken Shipwreck.

:''I suggested one of the Ponies go look for help against the menace facing them.  The first person she would have asked would have been Optimus Prime, the second would have been Shipwreck (who would assume he was suffering from DTs & pour out the beer he was drinking).''
:''Alas, <s>humorless spoilsports</s> cooler heads prevailed and those scenes were never animated…''

* According to [[Aaron Archer]] at the [[BotCon 2008]] Hasbro Commentary viewing of the live-action ''Transformers'' film, the ''My Little Pony'' prop carried by the little girl had to come from the personal collection of a Hasbro employee, as that particular style of figure ceased production prior to the beginning of the movie's filming. She never got it back, as it was later auctioned for charity, and whether she was ever able to replace it is uncertain.

* In ''[[Transformers Animated (cartoon)|Transformers Animated]]'', [[Professor Princess]]'s flying [[unicorn]] doll [[Powdered Sugar]] is an [[homage]] to ''My Little Pony'' toys.

* For [[Christmas]] [[2013]], [[Hub Network]] aired a special ''My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic'' video yule log. This hour-long special consisted of music and cameo appearances by several characters or pieces from Hub properties in addition to the ponies themselves. Among the characters who made cameos were [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Beast Hunters Bumblebee]] (who beeped as he drove across the screen), [[Blades (RB)|Rescue Bots Blades]] (who stumbled onto the screen before being pulled back off), Strawberry Shortcake, Lil' Bat (mascot for The Aquabats), a ''Sorry!'' game piece (from the Hasbro game show ''Family Game Night''), Niblet from ''Pound Puppies'', the eponymous character of ''SheZow!'', and several characters from the ''Littlest Pet Shop'' cartoon. This special was aired back-to-back for four hours on Christmas morning, possibly as a means of giving the bulk of the network staff a chance to spend Christmas morning with their families. 

*The [[BotCon 2014]] retrospective panel revealed a redeco of ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Battle Unicorn]] based on Twilight Sparkle, aptly named "Twilight Sparkle Prime", as one of several concepts proposed but unrealized by [[Fun Publications]].<ref>[https://twitter.com/BWTF_Ben/status/480568121011351552 Tweet by Benson Yee, 22 June 2014]</ref><ref>[http://www.toycollectors.com.au/bc14/bc14br.html BotCon 2014 attendee report by griffin]</ref>
