We best know Kayou for their series of My Little Pony G4 trading cards of which several sets have been released, but earlier this year their expansion plans for other merch was presented. While not all merch was explained and shown in detail, two new "blind bag" merch products just became available Tmall.

When we saw Mighty Jaxx their stand at the 2024 Spielwarenmesse it was clear that a new series of Kwistal Fwenz was in the works. After a bit of a wait the new series is now finally listed on their website, showing all details of the upcoming set of 7 ponies, including their release date!

 

Those who've followed us for some years now, might remember that time where we bought some MLP Trading Cards from China. For us this was the first time we heard of the brand Kayou and if you read our review, they made some pretty cool cards!

Well, turns out they even make more than just cards as appareantly they had a presentation last Friday where they display some new upcoming products. And not just cards, but beautiful figures and acrylic standees as well! Included are figures that also serve as a card stand, a very nice dynamic Princess Celestia and we can even expect some figures of characters we don't see getting much merch: Discord and Mistmane. 

Aside of the figures we can also see several Acrylic products such as acrylic cards, and some very cute sweet inspired standeed. We hope these will be available soon! For now you can visit their official website which has links to some of their official stores, or you can get them on Aliexpress once they hit. Do let us know if they do!

Thanks to Tomo for the heads up!

We used to post about new My Little Pony releases from Mighty Jaxx about two to three times a year. Lately it has been quite with relevant news (they still have a lot pretty releases!), with the latest addition being Rainbow Dash by Ricardo Cavolo.

We're a bit late with the news on this new set by Pop Mart, but we still wanted to get the news out there, especially since they are available internationally now. If you haven't seen this set yet, or didn't know they can be found on Amazon yet, then read on!

 Today I've spotted a very interesting new set on Shopee/Taobao: These adorable Crystal Blocks figures by MGL Toys. They seem to be modeled after the Cutie Mark Cew line and included are the whole Mane Six together with spike. Every figure comes in it's own box with the picture on the front showing you which character you'll be getting. So no blind boxes! No dimensions for the figures itself are listed but the boxes are 11 cm/4.3 inches tall so I expect the figures to be around 3 inches.

The listing we managed to found has them listed for RM59.90 which is about $14 USD however this is with the current 49% sale. Their normal price is around $27 USD You can find the listing here!

A rather surprising new line of MLP figures was just spotted on eBay. As it appears, blind bag collectible brand Hello Miniworld released a set with 9 Equestria Girls-like My Little Pony figures in China this month.

 

Almost every year McDonalds releases a My Little Pony-themed set in their Happy Meals. 2022 is no exception, however, this year we got something different:

Instead of this years figures being just My Little Pony, this year it's a crossover with the Potato Head line. You can get Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie or Rainbow Dash as a Potato Head toy and you'll be able to swap their body parts such as their hair and bodies. Alongide My Little Pony, Transformer toys are also available.

So far these have been spotted at McDonalds UAE (United Arab Emirates) with Pinkie Pie being available last week and this week it's Rainbow Dash. It's unsure if other Middle Eastern Countries carry this promotion as well and if other countries in the rest of the world will also get these. If you spot them please let us know!

Thanks a lot to Nyaton for the heads up!

As promised in the release post we would do a review on the latest Pop Mart x My Little Pony series, Leisure Afternoon, and here it is! We'll keep it a bit shorter than our Natural Series review, as the ordering process differed hugely this time, and some aspects are the same as before.

Licensed merchandise manufacturer Pyramid America recently announced a new set of framed My Little Pony posters to be released in March, featuring G1 and G4 artwork not frequently used in merch.
