Magazines and Colouring Books

For scans of some of the comics go to media section
English Magazines
A series of magazines was released for the UK market. Issues included small gifts such as badges, jotters, pins and so on. 
14 numbers were published featuring the early released ponies, some even featured some 'pegasi'.
Appearances in the 'Storyland' magazines
Also published in the UK, some of the issues had MLP comics included.

I'm not entirely sure which website was the source for these scans. If you know where the scans on the right came from, please contact so I can properly credit :)

French Magazines
Picture
G2s were the most popular in France. Their magazine line went on to feature the ponies released in 2003! Each issue had a back with 4 file cards with information about the ponies on them. You can find the scan collection of the file cards here French Magazine Filecards

The series were divided into a series of magazines and activités. As the names suggest, the magazines had more comics and the activités had more puzzles and games included.

Twins Nosy & Click and Study & Play have been released with these magzines as gift, making them quite hard to find.

The art style of the French magazines was quite close to the official art style at first, but later took on a different look which can be seen on the picture on the right.
