My daughter has grown tired of them as well. It annoyed her to no end to have to get yet another Rarity just to own Capper.
The reason G1 had so much diversity was that it was not a show-driven toyline. Whereas G4's popularity very much derives from the show, and is dependent on the show.
They definitely could, but they probably won't. I mean they could easily just take random background pony designs wh wouldn't even need new molds and put them into toy form, or they could turn more blind bag ponies into regular toys, but despite that we still keep getting more Mane 6 constantly. I just hope they don't do the same thing again with the next generaion and actually give us more variety. I understand that the main ponies are going to get more releases, but the extent that they take it to with the Mane 6 is ridiculous. They could just do, like, two releases a year and give us new ponies with the rest...

Ever since the pearlized ponies they have been including non-Mane 6 ponies along with some of the Mane 6.
The first movie 2 packs force you to buy a new character with a Man 6. Secret Hasbro meeting"Well we've got these new movie character and we should make toys of them but were overstocked on Twilight Sparkles, Rarity's and Pinkie Pies so we'll make everyone have to buy a Mane 6 pony to get a new character" The first Skystar sea pony came in a two pack with Twilight Sparkle Tempest came in a 3 pack with Twiight Sparkle and SpikeCapper was paired with Rarity (although this pairing does make sense with the movie) Hippogriff Skystar was paired with Pinkie Pie (again this makes sense with the movie) Twilgiht Sparkle and Songbird Serenade The All Abouts have a few Mane 6 mixed in the waves as well but my stores are overstocked on Big Mac, Starlight, Fluttershy, Pinkie, Vinyl Sratch and Twilight.

It's as if they think these items won't sell on their own and require a mane 6 pony to sell the deal.
Who is in charge of this stuff? They need to go work somewhere else. Like the xerox machine.
For a while the only way to get a Tempest was the the TRU set with Twilight Sparkle Tempest and Spike or the Khol’s set that included several ponies in it.
