Filly Mermaids is a wide-spanning toyline featuring Mermaid Fillies. It began in 2012 with the Pearl Edition, but new versions have been released annually each summer since then, running alongside those year's toy line main bills.
This toy line is also known as Филли Русалочка ('The little Filly Mermaid', the word 'mermaid' has a feminine form in this case) in its russian version. The earlier russian version's name for the line is Филли Русалки (no suffix).
The first official description of the toy line[]
(from 'Whatnot toys' site)
'The Filly Mermaid Story:
Near a sandy beach, just below the turquoise waves of the great Filly ocean is a world known as Aquatica. This is where you can find the beautiful Filly Mermaids. There are pearls that shine under the sunlight in all kinds of wonderful colors. You can find them everywhere; in the soft sand, between the mossy rocks and of course resting inside the wonderful shells that they come from.
Along the shore and in the warm and gentle water, you can hear the whispers of the Filly Mermaid’s laughter and song.
The Filly Mermaids all live together in the treasure castle with Princess Pearl, who watches over all of Aquatica'.

Release date | 2016 |
No. of toys | 16 |
Filly type | Mermaids of Coralia |
Filly Mermaids Super Glitter Edition (german: Super Glitzer) introduces the new friends of Glitterina. Shine, the mermaid filly whose tail has two colors and who is a special character, is among them.
The story of this edition is about the friendship of two families of mermaids. The first group features the mermaid fillys who is led by Glitterina, and the others are familiar with Shine.
Three new characters were added as the toys of three play sets of this edition.
Scrapped designs (Super Glitter)[]
The edition shares one trait with Filly Ballerina: 'work in progress' images of its package show never before seen characters who won't appear among the final designs of the toys. But unlike prototype Ballerinas, these mermaids are drawn on the image that is uploaded by one account of MyFilly.
The prototype flyer, one card of the character named Shinny and the first look pictures of the package suggest designs of every filly who appeared there.
Shinny's name appears alike to one of the released character, Shine, being two letters apart from it.
There is a possibility of the mermaids being the planned characters who took the poses and names of the old mermaid fillys of any other of previous editions.
Shinny is also highlighted on the images of package for blind bags, much like it is with Shine. The other mermaids who's presented on the artworks of any other image are well known Glitterina, the old character, and the new filly of yellow and red colors. Her name is left to be a mystery.
The number of planned characters for this edition was 20, but it got changed in the process just like the other details.

Release date | Spring-summer 2020 |

Filly type | Mermaids of Coralia |
Filly Mermaids mit schimmernder Schwanzflosse is the newest edition of Filly Mermaids which was first introduced by german 'Filly Magazine' in April of 2020. Its original name translates to english as 'Shimmering tail's fin', however there is no official english translation for the title of this edition. Noticeably, the edition doesn't feature any new character's toy included in it.
The other distinct detail of the edition is the way it is released: for the first time ever, all of the fillys are going to be sold with the help of the magazines.
The gems each character's crown contains come in various colors, but the crowns, bracelets and necklaces are of the 'golden' colour. The mermaids don't have glitter for their fins. Instead, the effects of the tails resembles those of metallic like material.
Andy and Memory are the first two toys of this edition to be released through the magazines.
