In the past few days, listings have popped up on Amazon for some unofficial drawing & coloring books on My Little Pony. The books are from the 'Little Pony' series and feature guides on drawing ponies in G4-like style.
The books of course never mention My Little Pony, Friendship is Magic or Cutie Marks, but the resemblance is easy to spot. The books' drawing style does seem to be very cute and adding Cutie Marks and the right colors is all you need to draw G4 ponies.

In total 3 books have been announced for a October-November release:

• Little Pony Coloring Book
• Little Pony Fashion Coloring Book
• Little Pony Drawing Book: How to Draw and Create Magical Friends

The first two are real coloring books featuring various ponies, poses and dresses. The last book is a 128-page thick book that learns you how to design, draw and color ponies.
Lindsay Cibos is the author of the three books, and she is known from various earlier books on drawing fantasy, furry and manga figures.

The 13th wave of My Little Pony Blind Bag figures has been released in the UK. The wave 13 blind bags have been spotted at Morrisons, a UK based supermarket chain. Once again the UK releases this wave in two parts of 12 figures each, so it's expected to be only Wave 13A that's available now. Once Claire's starts to sell these in the UK it won't take long before other European countries will get a stock of Wave 13A in their Claire's stores as well.
Thanks to SETC for the info!

Number four of the Adventures in Friendship Series has been listed on Amazon. This hardcover book features three comics themed after Princess Luna and Discord. It seems like that Friends Forever #2, Friends Forever #7 and that Friends Forever #20 will be in it since it features both characters. Just like the other 3 issues. The cover is designed by Sara Richard. Let's hope we can find a better image soon!

You can pre-order it now for $12.60. It will be released on November 19, 2015

It seems like the HasbroToyShop has listed a lot of new items! Several Friendship Games dolls are now available for order. Some people might remember the Neon/Encore Cheerilee, Lyra, Sweetie Drops, Roseluck and Amethyst Star Dolls. Well, you can now also order them at last! Below we have all the doll listings together with the price.

Something new has been spotted on the Amazon UK Website. This time we have the Magic Bath Figures made by a company called IMC Toys. We reported about them earlier when we found the Colour-me Twilight Plush who they also made.

These figures are able to change hair color when you put them in warm water. It also makes their cutie mark appear when you do that. To add even more fun: You can also use them as cute little water squirters. The description tells that there are 6 characters to collect which means there's probably a second set containing Applejack, Fluttershy and Rarity. However I couldn't find any pics of it.

You can get it now for £12.99 on Amazon UK. It's unknown if these have been found in stores yet. If you know more please feel free to contact us!

Another Friendship Games Product has been spotted on Amazon Uk as well. This time it's the Canterlot High Playset. This playset comes with a DJ Pon-3 doll with her own Zapcode. The building itself is also covered with a lot of Zapcodes for you to scan! There's also a DJ Booth included which lights up and plays music. If you're done with playing you can easily fold it for storage. We'll keep you updated when we know more.

A new Friendship Games item has been listed on the Amazon UK Website. This time it's the Motocross bike. This bike has place for tho dolls. You can also take of the golden wings and give them to your doll. You can also unlock the golden wings in the Equestria Girls Game when you scan the Zapcode on the side of the bike. Right now the bike has been listed but there's no other information yet.

Whoops, it seems that we've missed another poll, but rest assured that we'll soon upload a video journal of our trip, so you can see where we were last week!
In the last poll we asked you of which sport you'd like to see Friendship Games dolls, and the winning vote is: Swimming! Another popular option, which was kind of a joke, is equestrian sports. All the other votes are way behind, but soccer and snowboarding got the 4th and 5th place. You can see all the other votes in the screenshot above.

A few days ago we reported that the ponies included in the 14th Blind Bag Wave were revealed. Golden Delicious was also included but we didn't had a good image of him. It seems like he was spotted on Ebay right now so we can take a better look at him! It seems like he has an unique mold as well. How awesome!

Our Zapcode Database has received a complete overhaul after it has been down for several days. We're sorry about the delay, but are happy to have it back online now! Here is the complete list of all updates we have applied:

• Same style as our regular MLP Merch Databases
• More info on all the ponies
• Added Equestria Girls (Friendship Games dolls)
• Amazon listings for availability info

With the new Zapcode Database you now have more info than ever to get the right brushable or doll to use in the My Little Pony Friendship Celebration and Equestria Girls apps.
We hope you'll enjoy the update!

Since today the official MLP Fair has started in the US. Several people were already able to purchase the SDCC Exclusive for this year. Turns out it is indeed the Chicken Pinkie Pie from the Luna Eclipsed episode!
The packaging is really nice for this one because she comes in a fun looking bucket. Have some images below! Another fun little detail is the fact that her eyes are placed just like Derpy/Muffins. Lets hope Hasbro will post her official announcement soon. I wonder if there will be still more exclusives like an Equestria Girls doll...

Thanks a lot to Shutterlense for the images!

It seems like we now know what the 5th set for the MLP CCG is going to be. The next set will be called Equestrian Odysseys. According to the official description. This will be the largest set yet! You can now pre-order 6 booster packs at ToyWiz. Do you want more? Well you can also order a complete booster box! They will ship this August.

• MLP CCG Equestrian Odysseys 6 Booster Packs - $15.99
• MLP CCG Equestrian Odysseys Booster Box - $89.99

Normally we don't post anything when a database gets an update. We actually only post about them when a new one has been released. But for the last days I've been working on an updated version for the Blind Bags Database. Don't expect any huge updates but let me write them down for you:

• We already posted about it this morning but since we managed to find the codes and the ponies included in the 14th wave. They have been added to the database as well. Note that the quality of the images is still quite low because we couldn't find any better ones right now. We hope we can get some better ones soon.
• Speaking of images, as you might notice all our images have now a solid white background. At first you were still able to see part of the background. I personally really disliked this, especially in contrast with the other databases. For the past days I removed all the backgrounds. I'm pleased with the results. I hope you will do as well.
• New sections have been added called "Original Series" which contain the single packed Blind Bag Ponies. We got several request asking us to add them. So we did now!
• The other section that has been added is called "Other". In this section you can find Blind Bags that are part of Board Games, Playsets and several other  things. 
• New Prototypes have been added! I bet there are still more of them out there. If you find one that isn't listed please send us a picture. Maybe we can add it!
• Just a heads up that for some of the Blind Bags, packaging have been added as well. 

Visit the Blind Bag Database here!

First we hear nothing about the Blind bags, and suddenly the box for the wave 14 ones has already appeared online! Entertainment Earth has also listed some listings. Just like the Wave 13 ones you can pre-order the box, but if that's too much you can also order 5-6 bags. They will ship out this July according to their listing. We have no information when these will hit the stores.

Listings:

• Wave 14 Blind Bags Whole Box - $69.99
• Wave 14 Blind Bags 5-6 Pieces - $16.99

Toys"R"Us has officially announced their SDCC 2015 exclusive line of figures. For our frequent readers it won't be a surprise that this are the flower-pattern ponies from the Ponymania series. In addition to the earlier released Fluttershy Doll and Friendship Blossom Collection, Toys"R"Us will debut the Daring Do, Maud Pie and Princess Celestia figures at the SDCC (July 9-12).
As usual it's expected the figures will later be available in Toys"R"Us stores, after the convention has ended (this is also confirmed in the press release from Toys"R"Us). So far only one price has been released: Princess Celestia will be available for $20. Last year Photo Finish was sold for $9.99, so it's expected that Maud Pie will cost about the same. This is the first year that Toys"R"Us sells an exclusive Fashion Style pony, so we have no pricing example for that, but expect something around $13-15.
Below we have all the official press statements and images for the ponies:

About a week ago we reported that the Polish Magazine came with a new Alicorn Twilight Magazine Figure. It turns out the French people got it too and it seems like they will get Princess Celestia in the next issue. Thanks to Neptune we can now take a good look at what she will look like!

Who will be their next figure? I still need to get DJ Pon-3 and the new Twilight. :P

This year, IDW will release two exclusive My Little Pony comic covers at the San Diego Comic Con. IDW has chosen to give the Fiendship is Magic TP (Trade Paperback) and Friendship is Magic #32 comic exclusive convention covers, in very very limited numbers.
The Friendship is Magic #32 comic will be limited to 500 copies at $5 each, and the Fiendship is Magic TP to only 100 copies for $25 each. In both cases people are only allowed to purchase a maximum of 3 of each comic.

Its seems like we know who the next Build-a-Bear pony plush is gonna be! This time its the fan favourite: Derpy/Muffins! Doesn't she look adorable? She was found in the database from BAB.
No release date is known. Its also unsure if another pony will join her. Of course we'll keep you updated.

Thanks to Jeniffer for the heads up!

On the official My Little Pony Facebook page, Hasbro has announced their SDCC exclusive figure for this year: A Chicken Pinkie Pie brushable in Fashion Style size! This 6" Pinkie Pie will come with a complete outfit from the 'Luna Eclipsed' episode. As far as I can see the details of this image it seems like fabric clothing and a little pouch around her neck. I'm not sure how her beak is attached, but I think it's a small plastic band that's holding it in place.
It's quite surprising to see Pinkie Pie with these clothes as a SDCC 2015 exclusive character, as the original episode aired back in 2011.
Thanks to Jordan for the info!

Yesterday we reported that the Barn from the Friendship is Magic Collection has been found at Toys'R'Us. Today we got a submission with pictures of the Small and Single Story Packs found at Toys'R'us San Antonio, TX. This means the FiM collection is now released in the US. However I still would recommend to call your store first before you go out there.

Happy hunting! Thanks a lot to Matthew for the heads up!

Well it seems like the first new Ponymania TRU listing has appeared. The Fluttershy "Time to Shine" doll has been listed on the Australian Toys'R'Us website. This Fluttershy doll works the same as the Sunset Shimmer one meaning you have to press her legs and her wings go down. She's available for $39.99 Australian dollars.
Right now she's the only listing out there. Let's hope the others will be listed soon as well! You can find the listing here.

Thanks to Moonlight Shadow for the heads up!

Today Amazon has listed something we already knew about for a while. We're talking about the Princess Cadance and Princess Luna Design-a-pony Hasbro Pop figures. Amazon also listed the Metallic Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy Wing Kits. The Luna and Cadance are black but you can scratch the black of and create your own patterns. Remember that these are larger then the regular pops which means you can only swap things between them and the Design-a-Pony Princess Celestia and Fluttershy.

Have some images of them below. Let's hope we know more soon. These are great looking!
