A few months ago Loungefly teased an upcoming G1 Retro collab. The only thing we saw at that time was a very nicely looking Starshine backpack. Entertainment Earth has now listed this backpack alongside a matching Starshine Zip-around wallet on their website.

It's been a while since we wrote a store finds post, and to be honest, the amount of finds have been low in the past months. Still, we've build up a backlog of G4 merch and want to share the first G5 in-store release too!
If you happen to find brand new stuff in your local store, then feel free to write us a small message with photos.

Earlier this week we wrote about a lot of new G5 sets that were found online, but we didn't get to see all images as they originated from a wholesale website. Starting today we're seeing the first Amazon listings for two Crystal Adventure ponies (though, not in the US yet).

Two days ago ABGee listed a lot of new upcoming G5 Toys, but now they have posted the listings for two more: The Singing Princess Pipp and the Royal Racing Zipline Playset.

Images for the first playsets already surfaced a few days ago. But now Toy Wholesaler website ABGee has listed a huge amount of upcoming merchandise for the upcoming My Little Pony: A New Generation movie. Some of these we've seen before during the first presentation by Hasbro, but we'll also get a look at some new sets we haven't seen before. We've listed all of them below:

After a run of 9 years and over 100 issues, the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic comics series by IDW is coming to an end. In September issue #102 (Jeremy Whitley & Andy Price) will be the last comic in the series, that covered many story lines throughout the years.

After a long silence regarding official figures, since the reveal presentation in February, we're finally seeing the first listings! German toy information website Brandora listed two playets that we're seeing for the first time: Mix and Make with Sunny Starscout and Critter Creation with Izzy Moonbow.

One of the biggest My Little Pony figure hits from 2020 were the Hidden Dissectibles ponies. These blind bags featured unique My Little Pony sculpts with half dissected ponies. Many people wanted to see more ponies in this same style, and they have been heard: Mighty Jaxx just announced their second series of My Little Pony Hidden Dissectibles!
Update: Series 2 Hidden Dissectibles are now available! Check our review for all details or get them directly at Mighty Jaxx (you can use our referal link for $10 off $100)

Aside from that Entertainment Earth has also listed the Pinfinity Augmented Reality Pins which we made a detailed blogpost about a few months ago. If you want to learn more about these I would recommend reading that post too since it has some nice information about how the pins work.

Out of the blue a new G4 My Little Pony set was announced on Entertainment Earth: the Smashin' Fashion Royal Premiere Set! With the lack of a Toy Fair this year and absence of the annual Hasbro brand catalogue, a lot is unknown about the sets to be released this year. So this new set could be the start of a lot more 'final' G4 releases.
