Thanks to a tip by "Spike" Hendo of the Bronies Perth Facebook group, we have new information from a MLP animator regarding season 3, the fate of our favourite background ponies, and even some gags that missed the final cut!
By one of our very own forum members for one of our very own forum members. Also coincidentally somewhat like what this forum member is going to do when Jazza finds out he was late.

There's a Fremantle meetup this Sunday. It's on the calendar here and you can attend it here.
There was a "Bland Galloping Gala" last weekend to celebrate the anniversary of the Perth Facebook group. No photos were uploaded yet, probably for good reason!

First up, 1080p Youtube of the newest episode, “Hearts and Hooves”.:
In Musical and Video news:
So this is pretty fantastic for you music fans out there, this week Mandopony announced his upcoming music collaboration with Apple Bloom’s VA, Michelle Creber! Check out his short video here:
And to the QLD Bronies delight, Mandopony made a short shout out video for us, and played a guitar rendition of the theme song:
In gaming related news:
Short and sweet Vinyl Scratch visual novel type game, check it out if you havent already. He also has a ton of other flash stuff on their Deviantart page!: http://tsubukichan.deviantart.com/#/d4dvzv5
Ponysquare came out of nowhere and became a hit, so I’m sure most of you already have set up an account there. It’s like Facebook but without the RP restrictions!: http://ponysquare.com/
Merch news!
I think everyone’s been buzzing about the new merch that was announced. We have white Celestia, Zecora, Trixie, Lyra, and even Nightmare Moon! They’re all TRU exclusives, so lets hope Australia will get them too!: http://www.equestriadaily.com/2012/02/ne...-post.html
The unaired episode Heart and Hooves Day is now available on iTunes U.S. days before it's supposed to be aired. Quickly grab it now if you don't want to wait (and if you can, since it's the U.S. store).
It costs $2.99 in the iTunes store. I bet it'll be on YouTube in no time.
Edit: Berry Punch from the forums has this handy tutorial for creating an iTunes U.S. account if you're REALLY desperate for that new ep. Read it here.
After all of the complaints about Hasbro's intentions to rename "Derpy Hooves", an email from a fan was sent to the Hasbro UK office. Their reply is clear. They will not be renaming Derpy!
Edit: It might be a little early for a group hug. Let's wait for an official announcement from Hasbro. Emails can be faked!
Edit: Here is the raw email code which helps to prove its authenticity. Posted to Reddit here.
