Great questions! I would love to know how many "new" brushable ponies they expect to release this year and even next year...i.e. so far we have Heartstrings, Trixie, Cherry Berry, Sunny Rays and Flower Wishes & Vinyl...surely there must be more than 6 in 12 months! Please HB?

Will we ever be getting more show-accurate toys or plushies?

I just need to ask but what makes you feel the toys are so very not show-accurate? The plush i can very well understand but the toys are really not bad at all. (Apart from the obvious things like pink Celestia)

My questions would be:
- Will we be getting more plush ponies?
- Is there any chance we will be seeing a new pony specie in the near-future? (like sea ponies)
- Will there be new poses?
- Will there be new art ponies (doesn't matter if they are G3 or G4)?
- Any chance we will be seeing "kid" ponies with cutie marks?

I have some. I was wondering how is it decided which ponies will be international exclusives? Like Star Swirl, Rainbow Flash, Skywishes, etc. Are there plans to bring any of those to the US like Daisy Dreams will be? Will there be more International exclusives in the future?

Also, was Sweetie Blue cancelled because they went with Cupcake instead? (similar symbols, lol)

Will you ever consider doing a mail-order pony again, maybe via an online points system?

Any chance for more brush-able boy releases after Shining Armor?  :)
This please!

I'll try to think of more...

I second the question about double side marks.

My question would be, do we get more mini figures(blindbag ponies etc) that are based upon the shows characters?

I mean as in, maybe some with pre-done hair that looks like it does in the show, maybe even more plastic molded hair.
 
Having to style everything can be quite tedious, especially if styling isn't your cup of tea.

Isn't that why we have the blindbags and now the new miniature sets? At least that's what i assume they are planning to use them for.

Well, even with the blindbags there are some... inaccurate things. (No Fluttershy mold. :P)

The new sets though, are pretty great looking. Although the re-use of the same molds of RD, AJ, and TS are a bit disappointing. But I guess that's to be expected, given they've used the same molds for what... five waves of blindbags?

My Little Pony is all about brushing and styling hair.  Um... they're equine animals.  That's how you "care" for them, which is supposed to mimic what you would do in real life, if you owned a colorful herd of equines.    Since they aren't capable of being exercised (most NOT being mechanical), the only other major aspect of horse-play (ahahahaha) IS brushing and styling them.  Taking that away turns them into another piece of plastic that simply takes up display room.

Question for Hasbro:  Will the Collector's Line continue to have two exclusives a year, or can we expect to only see one pony in consecutive years, like this year?

While I understand where you're coming from, there are others like me who would prefer the molded hair and such, haha. It's more of a thing the newer-generation of fans are interested in, from what I can tell. (Which I  happen to be, hehe.)

I know that if they made some sort of a molded line that appealed to the people that are only really interested in FiM, it'd be a good money-maker for them. Not to say I would stop buying brushables if they did, I'm perfectly fine with brushables.

Will the new tv brushable ponies (Flower Wishes, Trixie Lulamoon) appear in a two pack set with previous released ponies (Example Applejack and Lily Blossom set) in the future?

Will the blind bag ponies like Stardash and Bitta Luck recieve a brushable version?

Some ponies like Applejack, Cheerilee, Sweetie Swirl and Cherry Pie has their raised hoof. Will be more Earth ponies and fillies under this pose?

My question to Hasbro: Why is it that Singapore is receiving stuff that isn't showing up in Malaysia or the rest of the world yet?

As Big Mac would say: YEP.
And I'm not a fan of molded hair either.

I think someone else has already posted this question so I will second it, what is the deal with Hasbro only putting the symbol on one side instead of both sides? I'm not fond of the one side so I'd really like to know why?

not sure if anyone asked yet so: are they planning on rereleasing any more G1s like they did a while ago? i got the first set (not sure where they went tho =[) and missed out on the rainbow ponies :sad: but i was really hoping theyd get more into years 3-5, which hold most of my favorites.
i was kinda crushed when they gave us a little taste then stopped again before it got to the 'good stuff'
