Altogether, expect:

Hopefully it pops up for the English speakers among us soon!
Thanks to The Illustrious Q for the information.

We don't often see a lot of Mane-Iac, but when it does happen it's usually great. In this case, it's awesome. Joining those Celestia and Luna busts from earlier, we have a new plushie from FireFlyTwinkle. You don't usually get plushies that can stand with their hair.
Thanks to Sarah for the heads up! -
Story: To Be A Mule
by Calpain
[Sad][Slice of Life]
Author: Archonix
Description: She smiles at him every time she comes to visit the stately home where he works as a gardener, but Dilly Daliér has never spoke to her.
Nor will he ever.
Because he's a mule and she's a unicorn, and those are the rules.
To Be A Mule

The comics have awesome covers, and now we have an awesome sculptured rendition of one to go with it. Emilysculpts over on Deviant Art created this, and at a quality level like that, I think it deserves it's own.
BASK IN THE GLORY THAT IS THE ORIGINAL PRINCESSES!

With the movie looming in 2017, an article writer over on Yahoo going by the name of Gwynne Watkins wanted to point out an issue effecting the male audience of the show that doesn't include us. While "Brony" merchandise has been around for a few years now, the boys group under the teenage years doesn't get a whole lot of love on that front. Clothing in that size tends to be exceedingly girly and focused on dresses, and most of the more durable toys focus on the customization and mane brushing aspect as opposed to the awesomeness that is Rainbow Dash or Applejack.
Now that we have a full on big budget movie looming, she asks that Hasbro consider creating some things for the younger male demographic. I'm sure a bunch of you have younger brothers who you have talked into watching cartoon ponies.
This does not mean she is asking for male ponies for them to connect to. Applejack and Rainbow do a good enough job there. That is all explained over in the article though. Go check it out.

The folks over at Topless Robot got their hooves on an early copy of the Rainbow Rocks Blu-ray and compiled a list of "The 14 Coolest Things from the My Little Pony: Equestria Girls - Rainbow Rocks Commentary". Check out the full list over on the Topless Robot website or check out some key points below.
- There is a commentary track in a My Little Pony movie and it is awesome!
- The original Equestria Girls was not originally intended to be a franchise and a sequel was not originally planned.
- The opening of the movie (pre-credits) occurs chronologically with the ending of the original Equestria Girls. Meghan McCarthy states in the commentary that six moons have passed when we jump to next scene in Canterlot High. (6 moons equate to about 5 1/2 months)
- The directors wanted to make the instrument-playing as accurate as possible.
- Unlike the show, Depth of Field can be used much better with humans and so Rainbow Rocks introduces that element throughout various songs and scenes.
- It was intentional NOT to use the My Little Pony theme song in Rainbow Rocks. This gives the Equestria Girls franchise its own identity.
- William Anderson wanted the orchestration for Rainbow Rocks to be dynamic and epic at the same time. The example used was the build up when we go from Canterlot High to Ponyville, the music will give you chills.
- The book in which Twilight learns about the Sirens is a callback to the first episode where Twilight learns about Nightmare Moon.
- Some scenes were designed to be long because they wanted to "milk" the fact. The example used is when Twilight returns to Canterlot High and Sunset is offering her hand, Twilight is hesitant about her help. This was done on purpose.
- Another scene that was "milked" was the scene in the gymnasium when the girls try to defeat the Sirens by using the "Magic of Friendship" but fail.
- There's a lot of characters "not having it" in the movie. You see a lot of this from the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Luna, Celestia and various other characters.
- The kitchen scene with Twilight and Sunset was a last minute addition that plays such a key role to building a trust between them.
