DerpySquad, a member of the illustrious Derpyhooves News, recently posted concept art that is supposedly part of Hasbro's new IP catered toward the teenage audience. Find all the information on his tumblr post.  But, if you want the concise version:

So, humans.  Mind you, this isn't definite yet, but there's certainly a lot of evidence in its favor.  To summarize:  

• Hasbro has recently announce a new IP based around MLP that's aimed at teenage girls, filed under the trademark "Equestrian Girls", which is for clothing, dolls, and doll accessories.  Also, perhaps to defend the trademark, the website equestriagirls.com was recently taken down.

• The tumblr post states the new movie that Hasbro has been producing may have a plot involving the ponies falling into a portal and ending up as humans in an alt universe.  

• The lessened length of season 3 may have been to redirect more resources towards developing their new IP.  The new direction would at least make business sense, as a new IP designed to compete with other tween doll lines.  Tying their new dolls to an already massively popular franchise would all but guarantee sales.  Also, Hasbro themselves prefer to make tie-in shows with their merch to boost sales.

Once again, a more complete description can be found on the tumblr of the DHN founder.

Keep in mind that the new IP would be entirely separate from the existing MLP universe, making it noncanon, and always giving those who dislike it the opportunity to ignore it.  So, if true, this is definitely a completely unexpected and new direction for the MLP franchise.  Any thoughts on the matter?  Any hopes or worries about the possible new franchise? Make sure to tell us about it in the comments, and stay tuned for future developments.

[update here] This all turned out to be true :(
