Actually, it looks like she is a uni...the sun on her mask might be blocking it. :/ Really beautiful pony, I might just buy her!

Ah- she is cute!  Is she already available?  Crazy fast! 

This tells me that Hasbro must be cracking down on Taobao or the Chinese factory- very little new over there

Something tells me she may appear in the Season 4 of FIM, she has her own look rather than a mane 6 clone.

Very pretty! I love the warm colors. Yay for fewer accessories too! XD

Also kind of excited to see what sort of role she'll have on the show. I'm assuming she would be in it...
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: Skeen on February 27, 2013, 09:27:31 AM
So, since she basically has Twilight Sparkle's name in synonyms, is she replacing Twilight?
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: disturbed-rainbow on February 27, 2013, 09:29:23 AM
You're right, There were some other ponies with their own look about them, like Lilly Blossom's McDonalds mane..
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: OLumeVaSti on February 27, 2013, 09:31:38 AM
She's pretty from what I can see. I wonder what the story is on her need to cover her face. Was she one of Michael Jackson's ponies? Is she a Mexican wrestler? Is she horribly disfigured from a fight with a dragon? So much mystery.
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: Galactica on February 27, 2013, 09:34:30 AM
I bet there will be an episode involving the masks-  they do look a lot like Mexican wrestling masks, but somehow I doubt that will be it :D
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: Whippycorn on February 27, 2013, 09:34:47 AM
I like her! A unicorn with Sunburst's colours!  :lol:

So, since she basically has Twilight Sparkle's name in synonyms...

This made me think, she probably is the next Princess in training!

And when she and Twilight are older they will take the places of Luna and Celestia in charge of the night and day!   :nod:

Maybe it'll be a masquerade themed episode! But in any case I think she's gorgeous! And I want her. I can't wait til she's released. So... when do we think that'll be? ;)
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: DazzleKitty on February 27, 2013, 09:39:46 AM
She is gorgeous! My love for yellow/red ponies is fed through her. I can't wait to find her. Finally, an actual G4 I want to buy. Not a re-release!
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: Ice Crystal on February 27, 2013, 09:44:50 AM
She's lovely! And a unicorn, my favourite.

I love the masks too.

Maybe it'll be a masquerade themed episode! But in any case I think she's gorgeous! And I want her. I can't wait til she's released. So... when do we think that'll be? ;)

My guess is fall. She is part of the Crystal Princess Celebration line which all the alicorn Twilight merch is going to be a part of, and that's due for release in the fall.

Yes, Luna from design-a-pony line. But this brushable and Luna are unavaliable yet.
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!

I must have that pony! I love the colour of her coat and mane and the mask is pretty too! I hope she arrives in Canada asap  :biggrin:
Any more pics of new stuff?
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: Galactica on February 27, 2013, 09:48:09 AM
I think a masquerade is likely!  So impatient to find out...


My vote is that she WILL be a character!!!!! (or at least so I hope- given the promises that the show people would be working more closely with the toy-line people for S4)

She looks like a Mardi Gras pony!  Wouldn't that be a fun theme for a set?

Yay, she has a name! And her picture on the box looks really cool. Like she's got a lot of personality. I hope she appears in season 4!

Well I really hope that she is part of the show as well as a toy.

I like her colour scheme and design. I am also excited about these mardi-gras mask thingies.

Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: ApertureScience on February 27, 2013, 11:41:10 AM
WANT!  So much want!

Sunset Shimmer, huh?  Seems familiar somehow... (http://mylittlewiki.org/w/images/f/f4/Sun_Shimmer.jpg)
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: Dragonflitter on February 27, 2013, 11:42:23 AM
I highly doubt she's going to be on the show. Most waves of the G4 single releases have been new characters who never appeared on the show--the only exception is Lyra and Trixie, and they were already on the show (and fan favorites) before the toys were ever released.

This one, Sunset Shimmer, is using the same vector as Twilight Sparkle on the box, so she's not even getting her own lineart. (Others like Lily Blossom and Rainbow Flash got their own unique lineart on the box and still never made a show appearance.)

We've seen the Mane 6 at the toy fair with the same masks on their faces, so I think the masks are just the accessory Hasbro is throwing in with the singles so parents will be duped into buying a tenth Rarity and twentieth Pinkie Pie lol. And looks like this pony is going to be the only new character in this wave. At least, that we've seen so far.
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: michelle53 on February 27, 2013, 11:46:43 AM
Finally!  A new pony to get excited about!  It's been too long since we've seen a brand new character.  I love her, her colors look great.
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: HavACrumpet452 on February 27, 2013, 11:47:55 AM
Good catch Aperture! I forgot about the G3 Sunshimmer. So It looks like yellow sun themed pony went through every generation except that in G2 her hair changed to blue briefly nd then changed back to red in G3.
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: josiekat on February 27, 2013, 11:55:30 AM
She's a pretty girl. It's nice to know her name. Now she can be properly added to my wishlist! lol
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: hathorcat on February 27, 2013, 12:39:15 PM
I really like her! I am so pleased we now know her name - thank you for sharing.

And I agree with DragonFlitter - she is probably just the 6th pony from the next wave - as the many singles before her prove being a toy doesnt get you in the show!
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!

I agree with Cat and Flitter that usually random ponies are not show ponies-

but I think this pony will have been made (hopefully) after the big structure change at Hasbro- where they promised to have the peeps running the show more closely involved with the toy thing-

I am hoping that is true and maybe thinking that it is given all of the show characters at Toyfair this year-  guess we will find out someday!

Dear Hasbro, can we please have more ponies like this? Actually completely new characters that aren't exclusives? Please and thank you?

Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: LadyMoondancer on February 27, 2013, 02:52:10 PM
Wow, what a gorgeous pony!!

I think she will be on the show.  Her name is definitely a callout to "Twilight Sparkle" and her symbol is really, really unique.  I mean, it's not as "clip-art-ish" as the typical G4, if that makes sense.

Maybe Twilight will get a student of her own, and it will be this pony.  (Or maybe she is her long-lost twin separated at birth, if we're going full soap-opera, ha ha!)

Sunset Shimmer! I need her.
That's cool she has a new mane style in the character art.
Her and the Design-a-pony Luna are probably what I'm most excited for of the new things from toy fair. It's good to see retailers starting to put up info on them already.

I don't usually post, but I saw this pony mentioned on EQD, and everyone in this thread is asking if she'll show up in the show, so I thought I'd pass along what was posted over there. Someone over there asked a writer on the show about this girl, and they said that this pony -would- show up in the show, but that they were surprised that Hasbro had picked this pony to make into a toy. It made it sound like she might be a background character somewhere, or a not very important pony, but that she will show up. ^_^

Lily Blossom did appear as background pony I believe , Cherry Berry or Cherry Pie as well

Lily Blossom did appear as background pony I believe , Cherry Berry or Cherry Pie as well

Going by the Brony Background Character Database: No, Lily Blossom didn't. Cherry Berry, yes (she was actually a background character before she was a toy). Cherry Pie, no.


Interesting that one of the writers confirmed Sunset would be in the show! Don't they often tend to not post spoilers like that, though?

Oh gosh, I do hope she is a unicorn! Her artwork sort of looks like she is but it's a bit hard to tell. I LOVE her mask and I wish now I hadn't bought the main 6 already because I just know I'm going to love their masks as well xD

I don't usually post, but I saw this pony mentioned on EQD, and everyone in this thread is asking if she'll show up in the show, so I thought I'd pass along what was posted over there. Someone over there asked a writer on the show about this girl, and they said that this pony -would- show up in the show, but that they were surprised that Hasbro had picked this pony to make into a toy. It made it sound like she might be a background character somewhere, or a not very important pony, but that she will show up. ^_^

Oh wow, that rumor sounds like it got quite mangled up. Several weeks ago I posted nearly the same info, but I don't think it was from a writer of the show, just someone having something to do with Hasbro merchandise on some other pony site.

Toywiz has a pic of Sunset Shimmer without her mask!

She is a unicorn for sure. I love love her eye style  :heart: but they look blue in the pics instead of green like I thought before.
She's just so pretty I can't wait for her to join my collection.

edit: and they are estimating her release date as May which seems more likely than March like bbts is projecting.

I can't wait for her to come out- I feel confident these things will hit my Target (don't see anything to make me believe they are a TRU exclusive, but I guess you never know till they are out).

It's odd but I haven't actually seen any of the design-a-ponies at my Target although I know others have-  so I'll have to consider other sources for Luna I suspect.

Anyone pre-ordering one of those Luna lots from Toywiz?  If you do and need to unload a pony, let me know :D

Hasbro, please make more of these ponies rather than focusing on the Core 7-I mean Mane 6 ponies. They're really so lovely.

Maybe she's a not so nice pony? Hence, they're surprised that Hasbro would make a regular brushable of a "bad" pony? Just tossin ideas out there. :P

Mhh, if she was only a backgrounder she probably wouldn't have such a unique design (but that's just me speculating, I don't follow the writers' twitters and such). Her cutie-mark reminds me of the Yin Yang symbol. Must investigate further ;)

Maybe she's a pony the other five bring in to make up for Twi's absence while she's away doing important princess work (I'm imagining them holding auditions for a "new sixth friend" haha)? She winds up being similar to Twilight in a lot of ways, right down to her name, yet still not quite right. The lesson is that nobody can replace their friend and it's also not fair of them to put that kind of pressure on another pony (cue audience's collective 'awww'). Very ferfetched guess.

I love her eyes! She's such a pretty pony. I can't wait until she is released.

But you're right, "Sunset Shimmer" already sounds like a replacement for "Twilight Sparkle". Or her evil counterpart/opposite ;)

If she is an antagonist it would explain why they were surprised a toy was made of her.
Title: Re: Who the hay is she?!
Post by: Ice Crystal on March 01, 2013, 06:36:23 PM
I'm thinking she may be more of a one-shot character like, say, Photo Finish or Little Strongheart (but a pony), which is why they were surprised. Hasbro doesn't have any stipulations against releasing brushables of antagonists since we now have Trixie, NMM, and Chrysalis toys, (and Gilda, but she's not a brushable... or a pony :P). Who knows! I'm really curious as to why they were surprised, given that background ponies have and continue to be released as brushables, and Ms. Shimmer is much too thorough to be a bg pony.

My other guess is that she is a pony from a legend, an ancient magician like Starswirl the Bearded, that Twilight reads about. The similarity in name is because the audience is meant to draw a parallel between her and Twilight, sort of like Daring Do and Rainbow Dash.

Good catch Aperture! I forgot about the G3 Sunshimmer. So It looks like yellow sun themed pony went through every generation except that in G2 her hair changed to blue briefly nd then changed back to red in G3.

Well, Princess Golden Light and Golden Light unicorn both had yellow hair. Which yellow G1 pony had that combo?

Oh finally something I want bad! I find it odd that Hasbro didn't just reuse the name Sun Shimmer, but has to be SunSET Shimmer instead. Apart from the darker orange, she looks almost reminiscent of the G3 pony. Love that she's a unicorn ^.^

I think "Sunset Shimmer" is a play off "Twilight Sparkle".  Sunset is the same time as twilight (generally speaking) and "shimmer" and "sparkle" are synonyms.  :)

The eyes do make her seem a little younger IMO. But they're so pretty! Oh man I think I'm going to need at least 50 of this beautiful pony! ;_;

Since we're all guessing as to what her character will be...what if she is some past incarnation of Twilight Sparkle? That could potentially explain the similar names. Though I feel like her and Twilight becoming the next Luna/Celestia is weirdly likely to be possible (but I also feel like the show would be kinda jumping the shark at that point? Maybe a little?)

Well, as far as we know, that's supposed to be a spinoff, and FiM is supposed to continue as planned, right? So TECHNICALLY FiM doesn't have a shark in the pool yet. That's what I'm going to keep telling myself.

Post by: HavACrumpet452 on March 04, 2013, 12:01:33 PM
Sometimes I think bronies are weird. Yes, Sunset Shimmer is a similar name to Twilight Sparkle, but that's because sparkle and shimmer and twinkle and glimmer are words that are often used in pony names. The same goes for Sunny, Sunset, Starlight, Twilight, Moonbeam and all those other celestial names. They're bound to randomly connect two that are similar to another pony. I don't think they're going to get rid of a main character. The main character of a show never dies.
