We start the weekend with a brand new Misty Brightdawn figure that was spotted on Amazon, this time a 3" version as part of the Cutie Mark Magic line. Aside from her, the Rainbow Celebration set is now also available on Amazon US and for good measure we also want to remind you that the Style of the Day ponies are also available.

It has been a bit quiet lately, which seems a bit... odd given it's also the 40th birthday of the My Little Pony line this year, and aside from the Style of the Day brushables we haven't heard much from Hasbro lately, however we (finally) have some news for you!
Update: Now available on Amazon US!

Hopefully everyone has enjoyed their viewing of the My Little Pony: A New Generation! In the mean time we have been busy with finishing 3 large database updates this week, and are happy to be able to share those with you all.

Today we proudly present the latest update for the MLP Merch database! It took us a bit more time than we initially expected, but with the current global situation we found more available time to work on make the database a better and faster experience.
In this post we'll share all the new and improved stuff, and hope that you can enjoy the databases now more than ever!

Fans of the 3rd My Little Pony generation were probably very happy to hear that Basic Fun would extend their My Little Pony classic collection from G1 to G3. Now we have the confirmation that the figures were found in several Target stores and that they're available in their online store (links below). Right now the set is limited to 4 of the mane 6 ponies, being Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash, all in their original G3 design.
The ponies come in a box with the same shape as the G1 retro ponies, being it with a design that looks more like the actual G3 packaging. Each pony comes with a comb and is being sold at the MSRP of $9.99 (and not at $8.49, which was originally listed online).

Thanks to Beth and TwilySparks for the images!

The 3rd generation of My Little Pony started back in 2003, and when you think about it, that's already 16 years ago! Whether this falls in the 'retro' category is up to personal preference, but what is sure is that four G3 re-releases are planned for this fall! Under the 'Retro Classic' line Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash will be released in their original G3 form according to listings that popped up on the Target website.
All ponies each come with a comb are listed for $8.49 with an MSRP of $9.99. And while they are marked as 'sold out', we didn't get any confirmations that they were available just yet. That's why we expect them to be available somewhere in the coming weeks.

Below we have more photos of all the ponies, as well as the listings and some more background information on these figures.

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!

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.

It's been a bit quiet on MLP Merch lately, and that's not all down to the fact that there isn't much to report on: We're working very hard to get the biggest update of MLP Merch ever ready for release next week!
Followers of our Twitter might have spotted some teasers hinting on the release, and we're now so close to a release that we'd very much like to share with you what's going on. To get the biggest change out in the open: we're adding the classic G1, G2 and G3 ponies to the database! This allows everyone to finally get a complete checklist and wishlist of ponies outside of just G4 ponies and merch.
Aside from this we're also adding a long awaited feature to the database, namely that of adding personal notes to ponies. Through this way you can keep note of how many ponies you own, if there's anything missing from a set or to keep track of where you bought a pony from.
And there's more that will we added next week, so keep an eye out for the release next week!

We hope that you understand our current lack of posts in favor of this update and are looking forward to the release next week. We'll keep you posted!

First of all we'd like to give a very big and kind thanks to Amberley Publishing for giving us the opportunity to make our book reality!

Remember our post on the first of April this year? We kept everyone in doubt on whether the announcement was a joke or reality, but today we can finally reveal the answer to you: it's real, and it's coming next month!
