Good morning everyone! Both of us are kinda busy these days with work and making video games, so that´s why our responses and postings are a bit late than usual. Anyway not long ago we reported that new Cutie Mark Crew Figures had been listed on Taobao. But now Amazon has already listed the 5-packs for the fourth Series!

Nowadays it's getting more and more common to see children walk around with a smartphone. But there's still an age range that's usually not so easily trusted with the latest $999 model. There are still feature phones that are cheaper and have less functions, but there's a tiny niche for children-targeted phones too. In that last category we can now welcome official My Little Pony phones, released in China by The Ore Mouse.

First of: happy new year everyone! Hope you all had some good holidays and we wish you all a great and healthy 2019.
Over on Taobao it has been a bit quiet with regards to new My Little Pony releases. Though, last week a new set of figures was first found on the Chinese online marketplace, as well as images of the set we were still waiting for: the Pinkie Pie Equestria Girls Doll & Pony set.

We already wrote about several new sets that were announced on Entertainment Earth and we're happy to write that most of these sets are now accompanied by stock photos! Not on EE, but on detmir.ru, who listed the Equestria Girls and Brushables this week. Below we have a combination of the original English descriptions and the new stock photos, showing that most of our expectations match pretty good. Sadly we're still missing the photos of the Pinkie Pie Equestria Girl and pony, so we're still hoping to find these soon.
We also added them to our Brushables, Equestria Girls Reboot and Equestria Girls Fashion Squad databases, so you can now start to add them to your wishlist for 2019! For easy access we linked each database page with the listings below.
Thanks to Tomo for the info!

Not long ago the 5-packs of the 3rd Series of the Cutie Mark Crew figures were found early at Target. But now a Vietnamese website called "My Kingdom" has listed both 5-packs with some very nice stock images. I'll include the listings below:

Exactly 10 months ago a mysterious Queen Chrysalis popped up on AliExpress, together with a brushable of Sandbar. While the latter has long been released, the changeling queen with updated eyes wasn't seen again. Until now, as JCPenney released their first My Little Pony exclusive, that includes the Queen Chrysalis figure!
She's combined with the complete mane 6, all with the same pose as the Reboot Series singles and School of Friendship Equestria Friends, being it without any accessories. Other than that the box itself is pretty basic, with the regular border and a green background. The back of the box shows an angry mane 6 and Queen Chrysalis. It retails for $29.99
While this release may not bring any new mold or characters to the shelves, it's good to see that JCPenney is also invested in releasing exclusive My Little Pony stuff, as Toys"R"Us is no longer able to release these lines in the US. I don't expect a large line of, let's say Ponymania, to come from JCPenney, but it's s slightly bigger chance at getting new releases nonetheless.

Amazon has updated one of their listings again! This time we get a good look at the Twilight Sparkle Magic Wings Figure. She has some really gorgeous Rainbow Wings. When you press her Cutie Mark her horn and wings will light up, they will also flutter. The body is the same as the Friendship Duet and Talking Ponies release minus the wings. So she's quite large, about the size of a Styling Size.

A while ago Entertainment Earth posted a listing for upcoming Cutie Mark Crew Keychain plush. No Images where shown when they got listed, but thanks to a Polish site, we now got images!

A big scoop today with the first sightings of the Series 3 Cutie Mark Crew 5-packs! While the singles were first found The Philippines, these 5-packs were just out and about at a Target store in Texas. Though, at the counter they noticed that these were not yet in the system, so perhaps they were released a bit too early in stores. Nevertheless we now have photos of the sets and know which hidden characters are inside!
(Many thanks to Mark for the photos and info)

About two weeks ago Entertainment Earth has listed a lot of new items including new Equestria Girls Ones called: Fashion Squad. What's interesting is that they are a brand new kind of Equestria Girls Figures. When you take a quick look they might look like normal Equestria Girls Minis, but they actually got quite a make-over! First of all they are quite smaller than the ones we know standing about 3 inches tall. They also look much more different in terms of sculpt and their articulation has also been altered as they can no longer move their knees or elbows. They are still very expressive though and I quite like their new look. What about you?
