MLP Merch Poll #161 - Cutie Mark Crew

#160 Results

Last week we asked you what is the most important thing (or feature) you're looking for in new My Little Pony lines. The most popular subject is something that we hear a lot in the comments: over 33% of you primarily want to see new characters get a release. Right after that, with 30%, is the overall design of the figure and almost 22% prefer show accurate figures. All other votes, which included a good price (7%) scored much lower and can be seen in the full list of results above.
And from that conclusion we jump right to the actual new line of 2018, which was ironically announced a day later.

This week we'd like to know whether you think the Cutie Mark Crew figures are the cutest figures by Hasbro to date or not! Can these win it from the Playskool figures? Or perhaps your favorite blind bags? Let us know!
You can find the current poll below or in the side bar on the right of the website, or towards the bottom of the page if you're using a smartphone.

Exclusive: New MLP Line: Cutie Mark Crew

Link

My Little Pony Cutie Mark Crew Twilight Sparkle Figure

Think we have quite the scoop here. This morning I found some brand new interesting My Little Pony items. Looks like this year Hasbro will introduce a new My Little Pony themed sub-line called Cutie Mark Crew. By looking at other toy companies it's clear that mini-figures like Shopkins, Tsum Tsum's and many similar toys are quite popular these days. So Hasbro perhaps saw this as an opportunity to create something similar.

So far I managed to find 3 packs with a total of five figures. Four of them are visible and the fifth one is actually a surprise when you open it! (Although the stock images already reveal who it is) What's interesting is that besides ponies, this set also includes Equestria Girls and Seaponies so the variety is quite big and I hope they even include more like many new characters and races as well. (Zebra's and Changelings perhaps?) Not much other information is known but I expect that these will get some special attention during the New York Toy Fair this year so stay tuned for more info!

Have all the current sets below. If this line get's big (and we know this during the Toy Fair) it's very likely it will get a separate database on our website. :) So, what do you think of this line? It's something new in terms of MLP Merch and I personally find them adorable.
