Last week we asked you whether you started watching season 8 of My Little Pony Friendship is Magic yet. And this shows that we have some big fans of both the merch and the show here, as in the first week almost 68% started watching right away! After a long gap we see another reasonably sized group of 19% that's going to watch it soon, followed by 6% who will watch it once the season is over (good luck not reading any spoilers in the mean time!). This leaves 12% of you that aren't watching MLP:FiM.

This week we're doing things a bit differently in the store finds post. We've got quite a lot of submits, and instead of splitting it by the person who submitted the news, we're dividing the post per store. This way it's a bit easier to see which sets were found in every store.
If you happen to find brand new stuff in your local store, then feel free to write us a small message with photos.

It's been a while since we last heard from the My Little Pony Tinkertoy line by K'NEX. Now's there finally an update about the building sets with official images of the packaging, as well as pre-order listings on Entertainment Earth.
The Tinkertoy line is the current deal between Hasbro and K'NEX to create construction sets for the MLP brand, featuring molded figures and colorful playsets.Sizes vary from 11-pieces, like the Rarity and Fluttershy sets below, to a huge Canterlot Castle set with 100 pieces. Sadly we don't have an image of that last one yet!

Welcome to our yearly tradition in February: The wrap-up of the New York Toy Fair. In this post we sum up all the info that we could find about My Little Pony on the biggest annual toy fair of the world. We've categorized all new merch and added as much photos as possible. We hope you'll enjoy reading it!

A few days ago we wrote an article on the complete line-up of K'NEX toys for 2017, and were still missing the images of the smaller sets for Rarity and Fluttershy. Luckily we've managed to get images for those (see below), but also happened to find the official image of the Pinkie Pie Sweet Shop building. In the previous post we expected that the pricing of the set was based on two sets, as it was very small in relation to $39.99, but it turns out that the actual Pinkie Pie Sweet Shop set is much bigger!
The original image of Pinkie Pie might have been a early picture of the Pony Pals series 2 collection, which we assume will contain Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash and indeed Pinkie Pie.
Below are all the new images:

Last week we asked you how well you like the Guardians of Harmony DJ Pon-3 Fan Series figure compared to other figures from the series. It was a close tie between those who prefer this figure and those are indifferent between them, but if you add up the votes for "much better" and "a bit better" it's clear that most people are positive about the DJ Pon-3 figure. Overall only about 8% of the voters think that the Celestia, Nightmare Moon and Discord figures are better than the DJ Pon-3 figure. Pretty unexpected!

Yesterday we already released a sneak-peak at the first My Little Pony K'NEX set, but now the full line-up has been announced, including high quality images and a release date!
The sets will be released under the K'NEX Tinkertoy brand, which has seen a big re-branding in 2012 in a partnership between K'NEX and Hasbro.
For September 2017 a total of 6 sets have been announced, four of which have images, and below we've included all information we have right now:
