Thanks to COVID-19, IDW has only now released it's next batch of solicits. There is only one MLP-related item listed. August 2020 My Little Pony Holiday Memories TP (collection; IDW)--November 4, 2020

Well, if I were my OC Captain Fetlock, I'd be a Unicorn pony with Telekinesis, Swashbuckle (cutie mark talent), Keen Knowledge: Navigation, Special Skill: Piloting, Stun Ray, and Fencing. Of course that's after becoming an experienced adventurer. At first level, he isn't even much of a sailor yet--much less a captain.

A little anime J-pop via YouTube. "Down Town Game" from City Hunter '91.

I've found out a bit more about these ponified transformers. According to the site MLP Merch, they are part of the MLP Specials G4 Brushables line from 2015. So, not so new after all. Sorry! Bumblebee (Fashion Style) Specials: Friendship Day (2015) Optimus Prime (Fashion Style) Specials: Friendship Day (2015) Again, apologies for any confusion. I don't remember having seen these before.

Amazon.com briefly had an image up from the upcoming My Little Ponies/Transformers crossover 2015 MLP Specials G4 Brushables toy line. It has since been taken down, but not before my spouse was able to grab an image of Bumblebee and Optimus Prime as Ponies: As we can see, it uses the G4 Ponies designs and seems likely to be linked to the upcoming comic-book crossover from IDW in a bit of cross-promotion. I have no other information about this at this time. The Amazon uk site where the image come from now shows the Ghostbusters Ponies.

Right now this is a work-in-progress. I'm starting all of the students off as 1st level (should they be higher?). The associations with the Elements come from the Season 8 finale "School Raze" and are pretty much show-canon. Let me know if you think anything should be revised.

The Upside Downer.

I am Phantom H. Fetlock, a Unicorn from a seafaring family living near Horseshoe Bay (the Fetlocks are known as the Pirate Knights of Horseshoe Bay). I'm wearing a red, naval-themed outfit with black light barding and a sheathed straight sabre with a shell-guarded hilt. My cutie mark looks something like this: Learning that A.K. Yearling is on board, I have her pointed out to me and politely approach her. "Ms. Yearling? Please excuse me. I am Phantom H. Fetlock--yes, it's an odd name, but it's an old family one. It's a pleasure to meet you; I've found your Daring Do books very entertaining. Your biography from your books says that you are something of a student of history?" NOTE: The last (and only) play-by-post campaign I've attempted fell apart when the DM ran out of time for it. Maybe I'll have better luck with a more free-form format!

Yes, the Kirin/Niriks have been canon for a while now. And they're adorable! I take it that these episodes have not aired yet where you live?

Nope! If anything, I'm channeling Space Pirate Captain Harlock. TPAM is a Servant of the Secret Fire.

I assume you've been watching some of the Fallout Equestria stuff available on YouTube already. There should be some links in the descriptions to the source material.

Many of the brick & mortar stores are closed due to COVID-19, but ordering online is still viable! That's how I got MLP:FiM Omnibus Vol 1, the Legends of Magic collection, and the second volume of the MLP manga.

I've been ordering the omnibuses and other collections most recently through Barnes & Noble (and Amazon.com before that). But your friendly local comic shop should be able to help you as well. Besides the comics from IDW, there is also the manga series from Seven Seas (Vol. 3 comes out later in the year). Between my wife & myself, our MLP comics collection stands at: - My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Omnibus Vol. 1 - My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Omnibus Vol. 2 (on order) - My Little Pony: Friends Forever Omnibus Vol. 1 - My Little Pony: Legends of Equestria - My Little Pony: The Movie Prequel - My Little Pony: The Manga - A Day in the Life of Equestria Vol. 1 - My Little Pony: The Manga - A Day in the Life of Equestria Vol. 2 And on the gaming front: - Tails of Equestria - The Storytelling Game - The Bestiary of Equestria - Tails of Equestria: The Official Movie Sourcebook - The Curse of the Statuettes - The Haunting of Equestria - Melody of the Waves - Ogres & Oubliettes My wife also has The Journal of the Two Sisters, The Elements of Harmony, and a boxed collection, The Daring Do Adventure Collection (three books: Daring Do and the Marked Thief of Marapore; Daring Do and the Eternal Flower; Daring Do and the Forbidden City of Clouds).

Thanks! It's one thing for Hasbro to say that we just haven't seen Fizzy's cutie mark, but she should still have one. The video is pure speculation. Maybe we'll find out in the Season 10 comics. They've been delayed, but should start coming out in May.
