This monday a bedding manufacturer has listed an image for possible G5-themed bedding. It was already quite likely that this indeed would be the style for the fifth generation but now we have confirmation as well of the names of the main characters. 
Entertainment Tonight has shared an article which contains the synopsis about the new movie which will be available on Netflix this fall. The synopsis also includes the names for our main characters: Sunny the Earth Pony, and Izzy the Unicorn. (No confirmation yet on Pipp) The article also includes a screenshot featuring Sunny. I personally think the 3D style looks really good. I personally like that they have eyebrows. Makes them more expressive. As for the names I'm not sure as personally I feel like they don't sound so MLP-ish, maybe they aren't their full names?

Hasbro will also be holding an investor presentation later today in which we'll we hopefully also get a glimpse at some of the toys for this generation. As always we'll keep you updated which means that MLP Merch will continue during G5 as well! We'll try to prepare some databases as soon as possible.

You can find the complete movie Synopsis below the screenshot

In the new movie, the pony world of Equestria has lost its magic. Friendship and Harmony have been replaced by paranoia and mistrust, and Ponies now live separated by species. Sunny -- a feisty and idealistic young Earth Pony -- is convinced there’s still hope for this divided world, but her slightly misguided and often hilarious efforts to change hearts and minds have led to her being branded a misfit. When Sunny befriends a lost Unicorn named Izzy, who wanders innocently into the Earth Pony town of Maretime Bay, the town has had enough. Izzy and Sunny must embark on an epic adventure that will include a daring jewel heist, outrageous conspiracy theories, elaborate musical numbers, and the world’s cutest flying Pomeranian. Their adventures will take them to faraway lands and force them to challenge the status quo by facing their fears and making new friends out of old enemies. The world Sunny has dreamed of her entire life could finally become a reality as Sunny and her newfound friends fight to prove that even little ponies can make a big difference.
          
Animated by Hasbro’s Boulder Studio in Dublin, the new feature marks the first time the Ponies will be seen in CG animation.

The movie is directed by Rob Cullen and Jose Ucha with Mark Fattibene as co-director. Cecil Kramer and Peter Lewis are producers.  - Source

  1. The 3d does look very good. I don't know what to think about the synopsis yet to be honest, but I guess I'll just let it be a surprise !

    1. In the full image there is figurines of the Mane 6, posters of Celestia and Dash's cutie marks, her bag has pins of the Mane 6's cutie marks, and a poster of what appears to be the Wonderbolts?

    2. I'm getting some Digimon Tamers vibes from this.

  3. I think it looks cute! Let's hope this translates well into toys; definition in face and body is what I'd like to see.
    On a side note: does anyone else see an uncanny resemblance to Frozen's Elsa hairstyle...? The puff on top, the nonchalant forelock, the braid... :)

  4. So this seems like it might be a canon continuation to g4...look, you can even see the mane 6’s cutie marks as buttons attached to Sunny’s bag, and the mane 6 figurines in the back. So I wonder what may have happened that caused Equestria to lose its magic. Maybe something Twilight couldn’t handle (seeing as she’s an immortal alicorn now)? Then again, we don’t know how far into the future this is, so even Luster could’ve been a princess by the time this timeline occurs.

    1. Alicorns aren't immortal, this plays hundreds of years after the Mane6 already died and is only considered a "story for children", probably a clever play on MLP's reputation.

    2. If the Mane 6 really are dead it would mean that the new story plays at least thousands of years later considering that Luna was banished for thousand years at the moon AND Celestia was still alive when Luna returned and the Mane 6 where around.

      Maybe for Rarity, Pinkie, Rainbow, Fluttershy and Applejack it would count if it would be hundreds of years later BUT considering that Twilight is an Alicorn she and Cadance either should still be around or it really plays wwwaaayyy later in the timeline IF it should be an continuation that would then really require some heavy explenation why Twilights ruling did turn from Friendship into paranoia and mistrust.

    3. It very much could be a Digimon Tamers like story where the Mane 6 are technically included by being "fictional" within this Equestria. It would explain why the world setting of Friendship and Unity is completely gone, it never existed in the first place. "Friendship is Magic" could be a fictionalized story within G5.

  5. They just showed the toys on Hasbro's investor event... IT'S AWFUL
