Hasbro is a toy company- Why aren't they making toys?!
They do make toys. Everything is going up though, and that means their prices are going up,and in this economy people have less $ for fun things. Given the fact that MLP has so little variety to offer little girls, it's like the snake that eats its own tail. Just a self perpetuating cycle. Wouldn't surprise me if they start axing brands that aren't doing well to put more money into their brands that do sell well. Such is business. MLP may possibly end up with JatH and Fairytale Birds.
Have you seen all the Care Bears and Fur Real Friends? And discouting brand with different niche than MLP like Monopoly or Transformer. Hasbro is too big to care about their once golden child. The Care Bear Hype is rediculous, we even have a (if not more) Care Bear Café here in South East Asia. The worst part is Care Bears are actually made with soft fluffy fabric with good stitch, while the quality plastic of pony body and hair went nose dived. MLP couldn't stand out from all the unicorn/cute retro vintage/cottagecore craze or keep up with the kids, Hasbro wants to play it safe and chaep, a loop of self-fulfilling prophecy. and Hasbro will just occasionally gave us G1 Blossom for 10th times.

I strongly believe G5 meant to have a lot of toys, but the first few ones sell so bad, they started to make bad decisions such as releasing Mane 6 in G5 style and then add in Minty, because immortal Minty is a meme. Instead of having faith in the new characters they have, the toys exes just think hard for the characters that will most likely to sell. They turn away G5 fans who want their favourite charactets and annoy G4 fans who think G5 look weird.

I am bumping this a bit, I still don't get a lot of offers.
@Gaspode Is this price still subject to at least 3 - 4 Pounds shipping?

visitors can't see pics , please register or loginThis took me some time. This is not easy, but I did it. The original concept has 3 Carrier pigeons flying around as her helper, showing her map and clock. I changed it into one Fairy Tail giving her a card because I didn't want to draw 3 birds. I apologize about the watermark. I am wary of Thief, NFTs and AI scrapper.

Thailand has 2 major competing Department store chains, plus Toys R Us.
In one chain, Pony are on 70% sale section.
In Toys R Us, it is 20% off.
In the other chain, it still has its own section and seems to be fine.

It depends a bit where you are in the UK to point out the thrift shops and car boot markets if its G3 you are after 
@Barnacle_lady Thank you. I am not so sure yet. I absolutely need to visit London and Essex, but the rest is free.

I barely ever left my home country, where almost nobody knows My Little Pony (before G4)
I think I will be spending a week or two for business. It is a pity that I never go there when Ponycon is active.
Do you recommend any local toy store, or Thrift Shop? I love loose G3 Ponies, the most.

Mostly joys and cheers, nothing physically. But, I did combine my Christmas fund and birthday fund to hunt for some rare ponies.
I spent a decent sum for Royal Beauty, Petite Petunia, and, Rainbow Treat, (and sadly shipping)
I finally acquire Star Flight after have only Heart Bright since her release.

It has its own charm. It does remind me with certain thing with G2, which I like.

honestly i'm not sure what specifically you're referring to (since i've never played it), but have you checked moonbreeze's website?
Some images I want are missing, but it has a lot of things I am looking for. Thank you.

Does anyone still have the official art from G2 Friendship Garden?
The one I want the most is a pony who is travelling in a hot air balloon. I think it was Sun Sparkle?
I would love if someone can find me the art from the matching mini-game, the printable scrapbook, the one from jigsaw game, etc.

For some reason, G3 Strawberry Swirl is more common than I expected. She shows up everywhere that sell loose ponies, but she has such a nice dark, bold pink mane. It is such a simple, yet effective design of a white horse, pink mane and Strawberry.

I like bigger, more detailed ponies. G1 and G3 are great size for travel and styling hair.

The first one is too similar to Starlight Glimmer to be a coincidence. Interesting choice, since Starlight was introduced very late in FiM life span. This artist is a viewer, not just looking up ponies for inspiration.
