‘My Little Pony Guardians Of Harmony’ Toy Line Coming This Fall!

This Fall Hasbro will be launching some My Little Pony toys that are a bit different than what we’re used to seeing. This new line is called Guardians of Harmony, and it’s intense! The first image I saw of the line was Shining Armor riding a giant transformed-into-full-dragon Spike, who has armor of his own. What?! That’s so cool!

There are many more than just that, and you’ll be able to get your first look at them in person if you’re at the New York Toy Fair this weekend. Samatha Lomow, the senior vice president of Hasbro Brands, said that after talking to fans and consumers who had asked for new ways to play with the core ponies, “They just wanted the characters brought to life in a whole new way.”

That’s definitely exciting for an older fan, like myself, that’s been with the series as a whole since she was little, and Friendship Is Magic since it started. Speaking of, you’ll get to see characters in this line that we haven’t seen for a little bit, such as the Cockatrice, Queen Chrysalis and the Changelings, and the Shadowbolts. It’s also nice to see some variation, as these are NOT the average brushable ponies they usually release with each new season.

Single figures will run around $9.99, “Figure and Friend” assortments will be $14.99 and include two characters from the same set, such as Princess Twilight and the Changeling, or Queen Chrysalis with Spike the Dragon. The set of Princesses Celestia and Luna will be $19.99, and the 13-inch dragon Spike will be $39.99 and comes with removable armor, fireball projectiles and a saddle so ponies can hop on for a ride. Keep your eyes peeled to the stores later this year when they start to arrive in Fall.
