An interesting new set has been spotted by Instagram user minisensmlp This set is called the "School of Friendship Mane Stage" and comes with Princess Cadance, Rarity and Baby Flurry Heart (who has more painted details than her previous releases.
This set was spotted at a Swedish Food Market called Ica Maxi and cost 249 SEK which roughly translates to $28 USD. Information about an US release us currently unknown sadly. We hope we can provide more news about that later.

The release of the Cutie Mark Crew Happy Meal figures at McDonalds's restaurants across Europe and parts of Asia raised a lot of questions in the US whether the figures would be released on their continent as well. After a short wait we can finally confirm that both Cutie Mark Crew and Transformers Happy Meal toys are coming up as the next series in the US! This next toy refresh is most likely planned for September 17-18.
More countries, like Canada, Mexico and Australia, also missed out on the initial release, but we have yet to receive an official announcement for those locations.
In the mean time Argentina already confirmed availability of the Cutie Mark Crew figures at their restaurants, and even included a clip that demonstrates what figures are available and how they work.

With the two brushable Best Gift Ever sets being available now we only had one set left: The Blind Boxes. But Amazon listed this set today and we get a look at all the included figures in this set! The set consist of the Mane-six and some familiar characters. As you can see they all have a pearlized look with the exception of the Mane-six who have glitter inside of them. I'll write a list down below of the ponies included. Sadly, we don't know the codes for these yet. (if there are any)

I bet a lot of people are kinda confused at the moment by looking at the title. But while Toys'R'Us is gone US, Toys'R'Us still operates in several other countries like Germany and Canada. One of our readers went to a TRU store in Canada and spotted this brand new Toys'R'Us Exclusive Birthday Surprise Party Pack.

Amazon has listed the upcoming Equestria Girls Fashion dolls! And good news for those who have these on their wish list as they are already available for order! The only thing missing at the moment are the stock images for packaging but we do get a good look at the dolls.
They are $21.99 for one doll but each of them also comes with additional outfits. Have the listings and info below!

Yesterday we blogged about the Target-Exclusive Cutie Mark Crew Set, and this morning we posted about the 35th Anniversary Pretty Parlor set which has been found at Target as well. And just now Target has listed both items on their website including some HQ stock images, info and a way to order them online as well. Both sets retail for $19.99, have the listings + more below!

We've posted about several ponies from this set from some time now, including at the SDCC this year, and we already anticipated on a larger, store exclusive set. Today we got the confirmation that this indeed is the case: say hello to the School of Friendship Collection Pack!
The full set consists of the CMC, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Spike along with over 35 accessories. As seen this set is divided into four classes, each with 2 characters and several accessories: Rarity's fashion lesson, Pinkie's baking class, Rainbow Dash's speed lesson and Applejack's outdoor class.

Thanks to one of our readers we now know that there will be exclusive Cutie Mark Crew sets, as this set has been spotted at Target. This set called the "Sparkly Sweets" Set and contains the whole mane-six as ponies + Spike and a hidden figure. (who turns out to be Princess Celestia with a glitter mane) Each figure also comes with a cute Glitter-Covered Food-themed item hence the name Sparkly Sweets.
