I've finally created an MLP Blind Bag page. It's not exactly complete, however it is about 100% up to wave 7. Wave 8 (and obviously wave 9) are not yet done. However the page is up and ready for use.
I still have to update the H!P videos page as I haven't done that in ages, and it's a little out of date. Hopefully I'll be able to get around to doing that over the weekend.

Morning Musume - I WISH (Updated) Radio Rip
A radio rip of Morning Musume's updated version of I WISH from their new best album has been located on YouTube. Here's the video:
I think it sounds okay. Remember that this is the 9th, 10th, and 11th Generations, so no Sayu, which means they can't really find a reason to autotune any part of the vocals. (If they autotune Sayu's solo Aruiteru I'm going to be very angry, as I like Sayu's voice). Anyway, there's a few notes I'm not too pleased with, and at the end of the original there's something like a stretched out 'yeah' but in this new one it is like an 'oh' and it's a little offputting for me. This one is a lot closer to the original version, unlike the new Ren'ai Revolution 21. On that note, I do prefer the new version of I WISH over the new version of Ren'ai Revolution 21. I'm particularly looking forward to the new LOVE Machine, Sayu's Aruiteru and the new song, Wolf Boy.
This releases on September 25, 2013 in two editions: Regular and Limited.

Through the Mirror Princess Twilight Sparkle Fashion Style
Another of the Walmart exclusive Equestria Girls style ponies has popped up (the original two, regular Twi and Sunset Shimmer aren't posted because I kinda suck (lol)). This time, its the odd-looking Fashion Style Twilight we may have seen a while ago. Here's an image:
She comes rather decorated, like other Through the Mirror line playful ponies AliTwi and Sunset Shimmer, and with clothing. She has what looks like a papery skirt that can be coloured in with the included markers/textas. Seeing as this Equestria Girls themed line is a Walmart exclusive, I'm not entirely sure whether the Through the Mirror line will see a release in countries, such as Australia, that do not have Walmart stores.
There's no known release date for this line.

Wave 9 Blind Bag Ponies found on Taobao!
The next wave of blind bag ponies has been found on Taobao! The theme appears to be similar to that of the upcoming Rainbow Power line, with the blind bag line returning to solid-coloured plastic, not translucent, with colourful designs over the box and bags and the phrase "Collect all 24 to complete your rainbow". Here are some interesting things about this wave:
The ponies are all listed on the side of the box:
Top row: Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Big Mac, Amethyst Star
Middle Row: Berryshine, Lily Valley, Mr. Carrot Cake, Noteworthy, Cadance, Sea Swirl, Shoeshine, Peachy Sweet, Grape Delight
Bottom Row: Lavender Fritter, Prism Glider, Apple Honey, Tropical Storm, Nurse Snowheart, Sprinkle Medley, Honey Hays, Green Jewel
More notes:
More pictures under the break!
- No Twilight Sparkle. Potentially because she is no longer a unicorn.
- Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Princess Cadance are decorated much like the 'Fanastic Flutters' princesses from the other day. Nopony else appears to be decorated that way.
- Fluttershy is in her new mold.
- Mr Cake, Nurse Snowheart and some other 'fan favourites' are in this wave.
- Some re-releases such as Big Mac and Noteworthy.
- There's also a pegasus on the front who I believe goes by the name of Tropical Storm.
- The bags, like wave 8, have no seam, and the codes will most likely be letters again.

Bottom Row: Lavender Fritter, Prism Glider, Apple Honey, Tropical Storm, Nurse Snowheart, Sprinkle Medley, Honey Hays, Green Jewel
More notes:
- Shoeshine and Peachy Sweet appear to have swapped molds (Shoeshine used to be an AJ mold and Peachy Sweet a Pinkie mold but in this wave its reversed)
- I believe Berryshine is supposed to be Berry Punch.
- I am thinking that Sprinkle Medley is another fan-named background pony, Medley, as Hasbro lost rights to the name Medley a while ago as far as I know
- (New mold) Fluttershy, Amethyst Star, Berryshine, Mr. Cake, Sea Swirl, Nurse Snowheart and Sprinkle Medley are most likely characters Hasbro sees to be 'fan-favourite' ponies. Sea Swirl was an early blind bag release (wave 1 or 2), and Mr. Cake and (new mold) Fluttershy are available in packs. Other than those three, none of these 'fan-favourite' ponies have been released in figure form.

Berryz Kobo - Motto Zutto Isshoni Itakatta / ROCK Erotic - MVs on Hello! Station
On the most recent edition of Hello! Station (#32) the MVs for Berryz Kobo's 33rd single, Motto Zutto Isshoni Itakatta / ROCK Erotic have been released:
Motto Zutto Isshoni Itakatta is at the beginning and ROCK Erotic is at 6:24. I personally think the two songs are okay. ROCK Erotic was much different (and probably better) than what I thought it would be. I'm definately not a fan of the outfits in the first MV (Motto Zutto), from the top, most of the look quite nice but then the bottom half, not so much. Miyabi should've had her blazer on for the dance shot, in my opinion. I like the appearance of the ROCK Erotic MV, minus Risako's head accessories. Initially I really didn't like the bunny/rabbit ears, but when I noticed the rest of the accessory the ears were the least of my concerns, as the pattern decoration part on there, it makes it look like something may be wrong with Risako's head. The outfits in this MV however were much better than the Motto Zutto outfits.
Overall, the outfits could have been done better. However, the two songs are nice and I think they may helpp Berryz to regain some lost fans. Motto Zutto Isshoni Itakatta / ROCK Erotic releases on October 2nd.
