Big news coming from the 2023 Preview & 2022 Holiday Market this week where Basic Fun revealed their line-up for next year. This is all centered around the 40th anniversary of My Little Pony (yes, the last celebration is already 4 years ago) and included in their plans is something very special: the never released Celestial Ponies!

We're still not certain on how to continue with the store finds, so we're back with a classic one! This time we have a small selection of very diverse merch, so check them out below.

When we look at recent My Little Pony releases from China, such as the Pop Mart figures and Bloks building sets, it's clear that G4(.5) is still in full swing in China. Today's new release is no exception: over on Tmall a listing popped up with blind box cupcake plush.

New G5 Plush have been spotted at Tesco Ireland! This time we have two plush made by the company "Character" and these two plush are quite special. According to the packaging these plush are a 100% recycled. They aren't the first recycled plush though as about a year ago we also saw recycled G1 plushies.

As mentioned before these were found at Tesco with a retail price of 15 Euro's. So far only Izzy and Sunny have been found.

Thanks a lot to Niamh for the heads up!

So much to do and so little time! We're back in the new year with more store finds, but we'll keep the writing in this edition a bit short. We still want to get this post out to not let the backlog grow too big and keep you updated on all recent finds!
If you happen to find brand new stuff in your local store, then feel free to write us a small message with photos.

Toy Wholesaler ABGee has listed a brand new Sunny Starscout plush made by Flair. But she isn't your ordinary plush. She has the ability to glow in the dark when she's in the light for long enough, and also plays sounds from the movie. She will retail for £19.99 pounds. The listing can be found here.

However, something else has also caught my attention and that's the description they included with this listing: 

In need of some My Little Pony gift ideas for this year's holidays, but haven't found the perfect gift yet? After the release of My Little Pony: A New Generation on Netflix there is so much to choose from, but we're happy to help! At MLP Merch we've been following the release of new pony figures, toys and merchandise since 2014, and have compiled a new gift guide for the 2021 holidays.

We aim to make a guide with gifts for everyone: from budget-friendly ponies to flagship releases, and gifts for small kids to adult collectors. We also try our best to include listings that ship international from Amazon, so anyone is able to order. This guide is not sponsored, but does include affiliate links to help us maintain the site.

Even after the release of MLP: A New Generation we're seeing new G4 merch being released, showing that Hasbro is still game on licensing the mane 6 from Friendship is Magic. Another example of this is the recent announcement from Symbiote Studios for 12" tall plush of Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash. It has now been revealed that they're coming really soon: November 15th!
