Bronies: A Visit to the My-Littly-Pony-Fandom

When speaking about fandoms, most people think of “Trekkies”, “Ringers”, or “Potterheads”. However, there’s also a niche group called “Bronies”, the term deriving from the words “Bro” and “pony”. The group mostly consists of men in their thirties and they have regular meet-ups, conventions and other events where they discuss their favourite kid’s tv show. Quite often, they bring along their soft-toys, representing their favourite characters from the show. Photos and text done on assignment for Filmbulletin.
