Happy new year everyone! It's been quite a ride the past months, and we hope 2021 will be a healthy year for everyone. There has been a lot of negativity, but for us personally we've also had our share of positive and life-changing moments. Here on MLP Merch we're going to continue for another year of pony merch, and are wondering what's going to happen in May with the NY Toy Fair, which is normally the peak of new announcements.

Because the event is a couple of months later than the regular week in February, we wouldn't be surprised if Hasbro is going to host an online presentation around that time and give a sneak-peak of what we can expect in the Spring 2021. Especially when the new movie and generation is on the horizon!

A new set from the Smashin Fashion line has been spotted, and this time on Amazon.
This two-pack features DJ Pon-3 and Pinkie Pie who both come with multiple dresses and other accessories, . We'll now also have official descriptions for these sets as well and they state that they can be displayed on both 2 and 4 legs, so thats pretty cool in my opinion.

The set is listed for $19.99 and currently in stock as well. You can find the listing below as well as more images and the official description.
Thanks to SLPhotos for the heads up!

There has been quite a unique announcement in Japan this week on JapanPonyCon by Know Idea, who we never heard of before. With their distribution partner Sega Toys (who are licensed by Hasbro) they're planning on releasing three Equestria Girls Friends Forever acrylic character stands, based on the original concept artwork of Rita Lux.

If the artworks looks familiar, you're absolutely right, simailar concept drawings have been used on the packaging of the Equestria Girls reboot series, as well as some Fashion Squad figures.

One of the most popular post from this year was the announcement of the My Little Pony figures in the Freeny's Hidden Dissectibles line back in august. With many thanks to Mighty Jaxx we received a box with all items in the line-up, including the apparel, so we can give you a thorough review of this unique My Little Pony merch series.

Aside from the review we're also able to offer you $10 off $100 in the Mighty Jaxx store with this referral link (we'll also receive a small kickback).

Every year Hallmark designs plenty of new licensed ornaments for their yearly catalogue, and for as long as I can remember since we started MLP Merch, they've been making My Little Pony ornaments too. Both in their top line of keepsake ornaments, like this year's G1 Applejack, and regular Christmas ornaments.

Do you remember the Fashion Squad Minty figure from a while back? It has actually been 8 months since this figure was first found online. Back then we thought it was just a matter of weeks before the release, but it appears to have been over half a year.
