We've been asked by Hasbro, the makers of My Little Pony toys, to find 100 MNers with a child aged 3-6 to put a selection of toys from the range to the test.

You can read more about the range on the MN pages here and the team say "the My Little Pony brand is eager to take children on magical journeys of friendship and fun! Children will adore discovering the whimsical world of pony friends, from watching adventures in the "My Little Pony Friendship is Magic" animated TV series, to making imaginative stories of their very own with delightful My Little Pony figures, playsets, and vehicles. The fantastical story of a magical circle of Pony friends has transcended time and offers relatable experiences to generations of children"

We are particularly looking for testers for the following toys:

Friendship Express Train set - "Children will love this cute motorised playset to take all of their pony friends to their favourite Ponyville locations. Train set comes with an engine, caboose, Pinkie Pie pony and 6 train track pieces" SRP: £23.00. We have 50 sets up for grabs.

My Little Pony Princess Celestia is "the most beautiful, magical unicorn a child has ever seen! Princess Celestia has pretty light-up wings that move and she 'really' talks! Pony figure comes with a crown, necklace, 4 barrettes, and comb" SRP: £20.00 - we have 20 Princesses waiting for a friend.

Vehicle Assorted "These sweet My Little Pony vehicles allow children to transport their ponies around Equestria. Each "vehicle" will come with one pony, a train cart and accessories. Children can play with this vehicle on its own or can attach it to the train set - allowing more ponies to join her friends on the magical journey" SRP: £13 - and we have 20 available.

and finally we have 10 Fashion Ponies who need to be tested "These stylish ponies come with everything you needs to dress her up and make her look as fabulous as can be. Pack comes with brush, saddle, 4 shoes, 5 hair barrettes, necklace and bracelet!" SRP: £12.99 see here for more info

If you and your child are selected to take part you will be sent the toy and you will need to get your child to play with it for a week or so - then we'd want you to add their feedback to a thread on MN. You'd also be asked to add a review to the MN toy review section.

All reviewers who add feedback will be entered into a prize draw where one lucky winner will receive a £100 voucher for Argos.

If you'd like to take part please add your details here

Thanks and good luck, MNHQ

Entered for ds, he would love this!Grin

Mumof1plustwins · 26/03/2012 21:21

Entered too - DD loves My Little Pony but it's a little out of budget for me to buy her especially now her birthday and Xmas has past!
Fingers crossed!

LadySybilDeChocolate · 26/03/2012 21:53

Ds wants to do this. Ds really wants to do this. He's 12 though. He's practically bouncing on the sofa (like Pinkie Pie! ~LadySybil's DS). He's begging. Confused

UnnamedFemaleProtagonist · 26/03/2012 22:25

I've added ds1 and ds2 would love it but he's not 3 yet. I've used a different email than my registered one, is that ok Ann?

Jackstini · 26/03/2012 22:30

I have 2 this age - ds & dd. Have entered as wondering if train & ponies will be something they can play together with!

browny · 26/03/2012 23:42

just added my name into the hat too....my little girl would be amazed to play with a pony with light-up wings...she's always tying her dress-up wings onto her toys Grin.

TrinityRhino · 27/03/2012 00:21

Both my little ones love the ponies Grin

StateofConfusion · 27/03/2012 00:28

entered, my 3yo is horse and train mad, throw in some pink and thats perfection in her eyes!

moonface73 · 27/03/2012 07:28

I've filled in the form but then the computer crashed just after I sent it - did you get it? Hope so!

fuzzpig · 27/03/2012 07:43

Done :)
DD would like the vehicle one best I think (well actually she would probably love the train set but they've already got a 'normal' train set so I didn't choose that one)

Selky · 27/03/2012 08:06

Done.

Bloodymary · 27/03/2012 08:23

Done. Little girl is always happy to research new toys. Smile

ProfCoxWouldGetIt · 27/03/2012 08:59

Done - DD is just starting to get interested in MLP, and I loved them growing up (still have a couple I think in a box in the loft - buut they look so different now days)

awinawin · 27/03/2012 10:30

I have three pony mad children and one of them is 5 but they wouldn't thank me for entering as none of them like MLP as they are so unrealistic. Just saying!

LilRedWG · 27/03/2012 11:20

DD would lovethis. :)

Fleecy · 27/03/2012 11:21

Done - both DD and DS would love these! DD loves MLP in general and DS loves unicorns Smile

QED · 29/03/2012 09:47

Ooh - just got an email to say I've been successful :) Can't actually remember which one I said so will get a nice surprise when it comes :)

StellaAndFries · 29/03/2012 09:52

Yay we're in, dd2,dd3 and dd4 will be so pleased :) Thank you Mumsnet and Hasbro!

TheEpilator · 29/03/2012 09:56

Hooray I got an email too! I chose the vehicles as I know DD would be thrilled with any of them, but presumed everyone would want the light-up unicorn and we'd have more chance of getting one of the others.

Whatevertheweather · 29/03/2012 09:58

Yay just got one too Grin DD will be so happy!

AvocadoAndFitch · 29/03/2012 10:11

Yay just got the emailSmile. Wonder which will arrive.

Sarayu · 29/03/2012 10:38

An email here. Going to have one happy little girl Grin

mmmmmchocolate · 29/03/2012 10:48

Yay! I never win anything!!!! Grin

OracleInaCoracle · 29/03/2012 10:52

yay! ds will be thrilled.

jaquelinehyde · 29/03/2012 10:56

Booo nothing here yet Sad Smile Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy everyone. I will be watching the feedback closely as it is the two DD's birthdays coming up and they have both asked for My Little Pony stuff.
