New S6 Episode Title on New MLP DVD

May 4, 2016, 11:19 pm EDT My Little Pony Comments Off on New S6 Episode Title on New MLP DVD

41bf83d98b[1]

Shout! Factory’s new MLP DVD, Soarin’ Over Equestria contains five episodes, one of which is a new season 6 title, The Fault In Our Cutie Marks. The title of the DVD and other four episodes seem to imply these are all Rainbow Dash or Fluttershy episodes, so that may be the case for the new episode with no known synopsis yet as well. This title was also listed as episode 9 on IMDB several months ago.

The sky’s the limit with these five high-flying adventures, featuring all of your favorite winged Ponies! Join Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, the Wonderbolts and, of course, Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, and Spike, as they show you Equestria the way it was meant to be seen… from above!

MLPBox Subscription Box – A DHN Review

April 30, 2016, 8:00 am EDT My Little Pony 3 comments

Capture

“I think they used to have these in the 50s…” (Editor in Chief, DHN)

Once in a blue moon someone will make a wrong turn in the Poniverse and end up on the abandon highway where our Bates Motel like organization exists, offering promotional material for review or even advertising money in hopes to escape.  They never do.

The month of April kicked off a new service being provided by Brony.com, a site which sells officially licensed My Little Pony merchandise, the MLP Box.  I’m sure everyone and has seen the recent trend in the past year of monthly box subscriptions, my wife has pointed out many.  So it in the fandom that creates everything for itself, it was bound to happen.

MLPBox.com offers a monthly subscription box (bag) for $9.99 per month (plus shipping roughly $4 us or $8+ international) which features several MLP items.  Like any other box service, you pay the monthly fee, get some random items, and can cancel it anytime.

So naturally we received one of April’s boxes for review.  While I wish I had a good camera and some better lighting, unfortunately I present cell pics on a desk that is probably older than most people reading this.

315

The subscription comes in a nice sealed bag with the MLPBox logo on it.  Inside was another sealed bubble pop bag which contained the three items for April.  A T-shirt, a set of Rainbow Dash ear buds, and an Rainbow Dash pin.

317

And that’s pretty much it.  The shirt was a heavy cotton from We Love Fine stock, the ear buds I didn’t bother testing as that along with the pin will be shipped off to a niece who enjoys the colorful equines and the shirt donated to the wife for bed.  My only complaint is there should have been some sort of figure (blind bag etc) in there, guess you really can’t complain for $9.99.

Guardians of Harmony Toy line Debuts Fall 2016

February 10, 2016, 1:01 pm EDT My Little Pony 2 comments

guardiansofharmony02

This coming weekend is a major event for toy companies and fans alike known as the New York Toy Fair.  Its kind of like the San Diego Comic Con, but for toys.  Companies of all sizes gather in New York City every February and show off their current and future products to fans and obviously, investors.  We’d actually like to thank the Litzky Public Relations firm who works with Hasbro for the invite to the NY Toy Fair and press preview tour of Hasbro’s section.  Unfortunately we do not have anyone close by and on duty.

Today, an article appeared with exclusive material in USA Today, which features the new toy lineup Hasbro is producing for My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.  The toy line is dubbed Guardians of Harmony and seems to be a major step away from the traditional figure lines MLP fans are used.  You could say Hasbro may have broken the mold on this one.

The Guardians of Harmony toy line features molded and stylized figures, many featuring multiple articulating parts making the figures very poseable.

The toy line which will debut this fall will be accompanied by a new comic series from IDW.

The upcoming line comes from consumers and fans asking for more adventure and new ways to play with core Ponies such as Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash, says Samantha Lomow, senior vice president of Hasbro Brands for Boys, Girls and Preschool Portfolio. “They just wanted the characters brought to life in a whole new way.”

The Guardians of Harmony toy line, aimed for ages 3 and up, features single figures ($9.99 each) like Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Shadowbolt and Shining Armor with nine points of articulation — so kids can pose the Ponies in their favorite scenes

A special set with princesses Celestia and Luna ($19.99) brings together the royal sisters for fans, and a giant 13-inch Spike dragon figure ($39.99) comes with removable armor, fireball projectiles and a saddle for other Pony characters to hop on for a ride.

Many of the new figures come right out of scenes from the cartoon, and according to Lomow, a new series of comic books from IDW debuts this fall extending some of the story lines from the series and new toys.

My Little Pony has long fostered a female appeal, yet Guardians of Harmony is another way for Hasbro to release products to satisfy its current large and fervent fan base of girls and boys, young and old.
