Finding My Little Pony themed apparel for kids is pretty easy, and in the heyday of G4 adult clothes and accessories were available practically everywhere. Nowadays most adult lines feature retro designs with G1 ponies, and our review for today features a first generation line-up too, but with a big twist.

Because what if the simple shirts and necklaces are too subtle for you? What if you want to go all-out and really let your inner pony sparkle?

Our My Little Pony database was ready for a (well overdue) update over the weekend and several of the items we added might not have been posted about on our blog or social media. Therefor a quick update on everything that has been added, so that everyone who is not subscribed to our newsletter know what's new.

The celebration of My Little Pony's 40th anniversary is starting to take shape: Hasbro is promoting the celebration actively on social media, and licensees are releasing their retro toys and merch. Today we'll look at what Basic Fun (known from earlier retro G1 ponies) and Loungefly have available.

Australian accessory designer Erstwilder has announced their retro My Little Pony line-up of accessories, and it looks amazing! The collection features their signature vintage-look with a mix of acrylic and resin resulting in large multi-layer brooches, earrings and a necklace with a 3D look. Also included are enamel pins and keychains.
Update: The collection is now available! Be fast, as some items are already sold out. And be sure to check our referral link to get $10 off.

This morning I stumbled upon quite an interesting piece of upcoming Merchandise, especially those who are fan of the first generation of MLP: New Zealand Mint who is known to release silver coins themed after famous IP's such as Lord of the Rings, Disney etc. has now listed a My Little Pony one!

The coin is made of 1oz of pure silver and features the original six ponies (Blossom, Blue belle, Butterscotch, Cotton Candy, Minty and Snuzzle) in full-color together with the logo and sun. The other side of the coin features a Niue two dollar design together with a portrait of the recently passed Elizabeth II as well as the year 2022. The coin comes protected in a transparant case and is boxed in a high quality packaging featuring Starshine. 

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!

Licensed merchandise manufacturer Pyramid America recently announced a new set of framed My Little Pony posters to be released in March, featuring G1 and G4 artwork not frequently used in merch.

The Virtual Running Club, an organization that promotes excercise through virtual runs/races, has announced a special My Little Pony themed challenge event: the My Little Pony Rainbow Retro Challenge, which includes exclusive rewards.

We're back with a filled store finds post! It'll probably be the last one for this year, so we made sure to include ornaments and wrapping paper in this episode. Other finds include Hitch Trailblazer figures, Twinkle-Eyed retro ponies and several older announcements that have been spotted in the wild.

If you happen to find brand new stuff in your local store, then feel free to write us a small message with photos.
