Enter the fantastical land of Equestria as the Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks and Friendship Games movie box set is out on 21st March 2016. This double DVD boxset is available from good retailers including Amazon. Just in time for Easter!
Rainbow Rocks was out on DVD and digital download last year March whilst Friendship Games was out November. We have previously own the two individual DVDs but now you could have both DVDs in this boxset.
Rainbow Rocks is the second sequel from My Little Pony Equestria Girls and it is 70 minutes movie. Now, the girls of Canterlot High are back, and this time they are rocking guitars. The Canterlot High is hosting a musical showcase, and Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Poe, Rarity, and Fluttershy are going to be performing with their new band, The Rainbooms. But when The Dazzlings, a new girl group, arrive at Canterlot High and convince everyone to turn the friendly showcase into a Battle of the Bands, tensions mount between the competing musical acts. The movie features over 10 songs and Ms C is captivated by them, humming and singing along to them! It is like a high school musical type of show.
Anyway, back to the movie, 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.
Friendship Games is a 72 minute full length movie and it also comes with five new original short animations.
Every four years Canterlot High and its rival school, Crystal Prep Academy, come together for The Friendship Games, a competition meant to foster a sense of unity.
In a strange twist, the Twilight Sparkle from this human world is actually a pupil at rival high school Crystal Prep with a keen interest in the magical energy emanating from Canterlot High.
Unfortunately, Twilight accidentally closes the portal to Equestria and unwittingly starts to steal the Equestria Girls’ magic. As the Canterlot High team faces off against the competitors from Crystal Prep, and their win-at-all-costs principal Abacus Cinch, Sunset and the others must stop Twilight from continuing to drain the Equestria Girls of their magic and figure out a way to restore the portal.
Before the Capture the Flag event can even begin, Cinch convinces Twilight to release all the magic she’s stolen onto herself to ensure Crystal Prep’s victory. In an epic showdown, Sunset and her friends face the ultimate foe, a magically charged Twilight Sparkle bent on tearing down the magical barrier between their world and Equestria!
