New friends and exciting adventures await in the magical world of Zahramay Falls in Shimmer and Shine: Friendship Divine. In the third DVD release for Nickelodeon's hit animated preschool series, the genies-in-training Shimmer and Shine encounter some fantastical new friends including spunky mermaid Nila, Ice Genie Layla, Crystal Queen Empress Caliana and more. Fans of this enchanting show will have a blast as they join Shimmer, Shine and their best friend Leah on eight thrilling adventures as they get to know the ruling princess of Zahramay Falls, as well as the scheming sorceress Zeta.

Shimmer and Shine: Friendship Divine includes the following episodes:

• Mermaid Mayhem - Shimmer, Shine and Leah magically transform into mermaids and head underwater where they meet a spunky mermaid named Nila.  When the girls get stuck underwater, the only thing that can change them back is a special mermaid gem, guarded by a mean sea monster.  
• Zoom Zahramay - It's the Zahramay Falls Magic Carpet Race, and Leah is joining Shimmer and Shine for the ride. The winner will receive a racing gem, a magical jewel that gives the power to travel at super speed. When Zeta joins the race in hopes of winning the gem for herself, the girls face new and surprising flying obstacles. 
• A Tree-mendous Rescue! - Shimmer, Shine and their genie friend Kaz are given a mission to find a brand-new gem deep within Genie Forest. They invite Zac and Leah to come along, but when the girls get trapped in a cave, it's up to Zac and Kaz to save the day.
• Freeze-amay Falls - Shimmer, Shine and Leah discover an Ice Genie who wears a beautiful Ice Gem necklace around her neck, giving her the power to create freezing temperatures wherever she goes. When Zeta steals it from her, Shimmer, Shine and Leah must get it back before the Ice Genie overheats.
• Lighting in a Bottle - Leah, Shimmer, and Shine meet a Lightning Genie who's chasing after a runaway lightning bolt. The girls offer to help him catch the bolt using their fast new cloud boards. 
• All Bottled Up - Shimmer and Shine open a super sparkly bottle at the market...and get sucked into it!  It's a trap, set by Zeta.  Leah, Tala and Nahal must rescue the bottle and figure out a way to free Shimmer and Shine without using any wishing magic. 
• The Crystal Queen - Zeta magically traps Samira in a magical crystal cave so she can take over Zahramay Falls once and for all. Leah, Shimmer and Shine call on Samira's mentor, Empress Caliana, for help and enter the crystal world to find and rescue Samira.
• Bling, Bling - Samira entrusts the girls with a special task--to take a very special necklace to the Genie Jeweler for cleaning.  Zeta steals the necklace and the girls race to get it back before she can figure out the necklace's special power.

THE NEW FULL-LENGTH FILM

MY LITTLE PONY EQUESTRIA GIRLS: RAINBOW ROCKS

AVAILABLE NOW!

“Rainbow Rocks does, in fact, rock.” – The Village Voice

“a candy-colored fantasy that uses tween-friendly comedy and tunes to teach lessons

in friendship and collaboration.” - The Hollywood Reporter

Los Angeles, CA – There’s a brand new full-length film in the ever-popular My Little Pony canon.

Factory Kids, in collaboration with Hasbro Studios, as a single-disc DVD, and in a Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Copy combo. Bonus features include an Audio Commentary, 8 Prequel Shorts and Sing-Alongs.

In My Little Pony Equestria Girls, released in fall 2013, Twilight Sparkle’s crown was stolen from the Crystal Empire, and she pursued the thief, Sunset Shimmer, into an alternate world where she finds herself turned into…a teenage girl! To regain her crown and return to Equestria, Twilight had to learn how to fit into this strange, new world and defeat Sunset Shimmer in a competition to become crowned Princess of the Fall Formal at Canterlot High.

Now, the girls of Canterlot High are back, and this time they’re rocking guitars! In My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks, Canterlot High (CHS) is hosting a musical showcase, and Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Fluttershy are going to be performing with their new band, The Rainbooms. But when The Dazzlings, a new girl group, arrive at CHS and convince everyone to turn the friendly showcase into a Battle of the Bands, tensions mount between the competing musical acts. A now-reformed Sunset Shimmer realizes that The Dazzlings may not be ordinary girls and are after something far more sinister than just being named Best Band at Canterlot High. The Rainbooms call on Princess Twilight to restore harmony to their world to help them perform a musical counter-spell so that they can win a battle that now determines the fate of the entire school.

My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks is now available at Amazon.com, ShoutFactory.com, Target.com, and Walmart.com.
