After releasing limited editions of Pinkie Pie and Twilight Sparkle in 2020 it's now time for a limited-run version of the Fluttershy bishoujo statue, which was announced earlier today on Kotobukiya's own Twitter.

While we were still posting about the latest G4 items hitting stores in the US and Europe, over in China the first G5 plush are already being posted online. The photos from this post originate from Taobao and their IdleFish "second-hand market" app. A user there apparently got hold of four G5 plush by Just Play, who released plenty of G4 plush in the past.

Starting today the Princess Luna bishoujo statue by Kotobukiya can be pre-ordered. She's the first of the two princess to be available, whereas Princess Celestia will follow later. Pre-orders are open in Japan right now, and US-based retailers will follow in the next hours. The release is planned for September 2021.

The past days have been a bit busy with all the G5 news, but G4 is still going on as well! In January Kotobukiya had posted the finished sculptures for the upcoming Princess Celestia and Luna Statues, and now they have revealed the painted version of Luna + the Pony Sculpt of Princess Celestia.

My Little Pony is making the jump to the 5th generation this year. The new generation will start with a Netflix-exclusive movie and series, as well as a new web-series on YouTube. Along with the new style of animation and characters come a brand new line of figures from Hasbro as well.

Note: the information in this post has not yet been verified and should be considered as rumors and assumptions.

We just got word that Czech bedding manufacturer Jerry Fabrics, who have been making licensed bedding, pillows and covers, released their 2021 line-up. Among the new products are several sets of My Little Pony bedding in the currently known style, but an odd one is also included.

Over in China on various apps and message boards news has popped up from Chinese toy manufacturer Pop Mart about a series of My Little Pony blind bag figures they are going to release. This set is called Natural Series and features unique poses and bases we've not seen before in blind bags of any kind!

Over on their Instagram page Mighty Jaxx opened a quick poll to see which pony they should release as their next figure: Princess Luna or Nightmare Moon. The figure with the most votes will presumably be the next XXRay Plus figure, of which Princess Celestia was announced before.

After the incredibly long wait for the Minty & Pinkie Pie 2-pack, Hasbro seems to pick up the speed regarding the Fashion Squad 2-packs. This week a brand new 'Best Friends' set was spotted at a Czech toy store revealing that a 2-pack with Princess Cadance and Twilight Sparkle is coming soon.
