It has been a very chaotic couple of days on the pony news front! After months of being left in the dark after the My Little Pony: A New Generation movie released, we finally have some things to chew on and look forward to for the coming year when it comes to our new colorful equine cast.
This post has coralled up everything we've learned in one easier to digest page, with links to things thatg are super in depth. Expect quick bullet point factoids for the basics, because I know that's how I consume news these days and it shouldn't be any other way!
Go get it all below.
