We're happy to announce that our first book My Little Pony Collectibles is now available! As we shared last month this is our contribution to the 35th Anniversary celebration of My Little Pony. In the book we take you on a journey through time from the very first ponies, all the way to the 4th generation. Through this history we highlight several sets and facts, resulting in a colorful 96-page book, counting 150 photos of ponies from ourselves and fellow collectors from around the world!

Most of you will be familiar with the My Little Pony trading cards. They're released internationally by Enterplay, we've seen 4 large series and 2 side series and you may even know that our admin Ilona designed one of the cards.
But what if we told you that not all cards are written in English? And that a special release of the 4th series is available in Poland?

Enterplay teamed up with Media Service Zawada, a Polish distributor, to release a subset of the Series 4 trading cards within Poland. This set does not feature all cards that you might be familiar with, but contains Polish versions of the character, song and location cards. Aside from regular foil cards all other card types and chase version are excluded, which means no FanArts, logic cards or shaped foil cards. In total this leaves 99 cards to collect: 81 regular cards and 18 foils. As with the regular series buying a booster box should guarantee you a complete set of regular cards, but the foils are random.

Booster packs contain 5 cards each: 4 regular cards and 1 guaranteed foil card. FunTat tattoos and stickers are absent in this set too. This does make the card packs relatively cheap with a price tag of only 3.99PLN, which is just over $1. Aside from the loose boosters there's also an album to keep track of your card collection for 29.99PLN (which includes 4 packs) and a complete booster box (24 packs) is available for 94.99PLN. Images of what this all looks like can be found below!

Many thanks to Piro for the information and photos! He also made unpacking videos of the album and booster box (in Polish).

Another compilation of Store Finds that we received in the past weeks! We've got some big announcements, like the Series 2 Cutie Mark Crew blind packs, as well as plenty of smaller releases from the US, Mexico, The Netherlands, France and Australia.
If you happen to find brand new stuff in your local store, then feel free to write us a small message with photos.

Exclusive designer fashion is not something that we talk about a lot on our blog, but we're going to make an exception for the fashionistas today with a look at the latest collection by Butrich from Peru.
While I personally never heard of this brand before, we were alerted by alejandrahumbser (thanks!) about this new line of shoes & accessories, and there's a good reason for that!
The latest line is called "My Little Pony by Butrich" and features, you've guessed it, MLP-themed designs! Butrich designed 6 high-heel shoes themed after the mane 6, and clutches to match the ponies too. In addition Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle inspired earrings are also part of the collection. Every pony got their own designs, making every piece in the collection unique.
Every piece of the collection is available right now. Not planning on visiting their store in Lima any time soon? Everything is available in their web shop too. Though, a little warning beforehand: shoes & clutches start at US$325!

After 24 waves of blind bags Hasbro shifted to a new style of blind bag-styles figures with the Cutie Mark Crew blind packs. Luckily there was one upcoming set that would still feature the original blind bag figures that we knew since G4 started in 2010: the Best Gift Ever blind boxes.
While announced very early this year at the NY Toy Fair, we already knew this set was targeted for a release towards the holidays, and October is pretty close to December! The boxes are now in-stock on Amazon.com and should ship right away.
Below we have a quick overview of all ponies that are included and our database contains all names and details of who's available within the set (and keep track of which ponies you want or have with the checklist and wishlist!).

After a long series of teasers Kotobukiya finally made the Pinkie Pie bishoujo statue available for pre-order today. Not only that, but the new listings contain additional photos of the figure and the "final product may vary" notice has been dropped. We couldn't spot any major changes so soon, but this is the first time the figure could be seen in such detail! You'll find these photos further down this post.
International customers will be able to pre-order a statue through Entertainment Earth, where it's listed for $99.99. The release date in the US is set for late June / early July 2019, so we'd have to keep our patience for a few more months!

Out of nowhere a new My Little Pony CCG (Collectible Card Game) Booster Box has been listed on Amazon. This new set will be called: Friends Forever and will, according to the description, contain cards of the Pillars of Equestria and the "Young Six".
The strange this is that I haven't been able to find an official announcement yet or any other info about this set aside from some other listings on different websites. But there is an Amazon listing and you are able to pre-order it for $99.83. You'll receive a booster box containing 36 packs with 12 cards inside of them, this means you'll get a total of 432 cards.

We were quiet busy with the new all-generation databases, and are preparing for the release of our book later this month, but that doesn't mean there's no store finds to be shared! This episode we don't have a real scoop to share, but we did see some new random merch from the US and UK, as well as various discounted items that you might want to check out.
If you happen to find brand new stuff in your local store, then feel free to write us a small message with photos.

After months/years of hard work we can finally present to you: Databases of the older generations of My Little Pony! This year, during the celebration of the 35th Anniversary of My Little Pony, is the perfect moment for this update to the databases and hope you'll enjoy the new (err, old) friends from the MLP universe!
You can now add all generations of ponies to your checklist, wishlist ánd: You now also have the ability to make add personal notes for every pony.
