Changeling and Twilight Sparkle come together in a "Figure and Friend" set as part of the "My Little Pony Guardians of Harmony" line.


Pop culture’s favorite toy horsies are getting some animated inspiration.

Hasbro’s My Little Pony franchise launches a new Guardians of Harmony line this fall with figures and sets based on Discovery Family Channel’s My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic animated series. Pony fans and other attendees will get a first look at the upcoming merchandise this weekend at Toy Fair in New York City.

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.”

Pony toys that featured accessories and hair for kids to brush have been a staple in toy aisles since the 1980s. Lomow feels those will continue to resonate but Hasbro also saw an opportunity to take the property in a different direction while also showcasing characters like Queen Chrysalis and her Changelings that haven’t been as broadly represented as others.

Ooooh, these are interesting :O Not a fan of the articulated look (they look a bit too 'shiny' for my tastes too but I'm guessing that's just for the promo pic and not necessarily what they'll actually look like, haha), but it's nice to see something new ^^ Plus CHRYSALIS!

[LadyMoondancer]

Um.  I completely love these.  These look so dynamic and the joints are well-hidden.

I'm kind of stunned right now.

[Moonbreeze]

Celestia, Chrysalis and Nightmare Moon! All.My.Want!

[kissthethunder]

These actually look great! I just wish they'd make quality brushables!

[LadyMoondancer]

I want a million of the changelings.

[lovesbabysquirmy]

.... but where's the brushable hair?    Okay seriously Hasbro good idea, but you took the PONY out of MLP again...  if I want plastic vinyl displayables, I'd be collecting Funko figures...

[LadyMoondancer]

OH MY GOD, SHINING ARMOR RIDING SPIKE(??) THE DRAGON.  WANT WANT WANT.

[Aquatic Neon]

Omg!!!! Celestia Nightmare Moon Changelings Chrysalis take my money love them!!!! So different unique and new!!

[SpaceButtPonies]

Oh wow! Hasbro is doing a lot this year.
Not a huge fan of the articulation that's going on, but honestly better than the ones they have been spitting out. If these toys look this nice, I hope the 6th season will be good.

Loving nightmare moon though!

[brighteyes]

Um.  I completely love these.  These look so dynamic and the joints are well-hidden.

I'm kind of stunned right now.

I feel the same way.  I really think these look very nice for jointed ponies and am super excited about Shining Armor and what looks kind of like grown up Spike.  I do hope they continue to make brushables, but I like these a heck of a lot better than blind bags which have gotten so very stale.

[Skeen]

Um.  I completely love these.  These look so dynamic and the joints are well-hidden.

I'm kind of stunned right now.

Yeah, wow.  Me too.  O.o 

[ponyqueen]

All right! I can save my money! Excellent!

[Leave a Whisper]

Luna looks awesome! Shadow bolt looks constipated. Is that supposed to be all grown up Spike?

The chicken thing is a riot!

[SubmarineHallucination]

QUEEN CHRYSALIS!!!!
These are so beautiful! I love the sculpts on these.
