Okay, this might be a dumb question but...
Is this set out already? o3o'

Big Bad Toy Store has them listed as coming out in August.

Okay, thank you! Is there just one set like this? I remember seeing a Granny Smith around the same time someone found a Gilda on e-bay... So are there going to be other "theme" sets? :)

Here are the other sets in package as well...I just cant wait to get Granny Smith!!!!

I for one welcome the generic wonderbolt. Ideal for army building.

I'm actually excited over these- but forgive me, why Gilda? Does she show up again in season 2? She wasn't a nice character.
I wish there were two Wonderbolts in there, my boys would like  that.

I think it's because of the fans wanting her. And it's cool to see Hasbro doing a non-pony mold.

Same reason they made a Trixie pony. She was a throwaway "villain" yet some very obsessed fans, like a certain someone ruining  a certain "news" blog  kept begging,

Why should they only make nice characters, though?    I would’ve loved a Tirek toy!  ;)

Well, hopefully they won't be too expensive or hard to find.

I'm not opposed to "villian"  toys, heck my sister and I had Skelator, I meant more of she seemed like someone else said a "throwaway" bratty character who was (as far as I've seen)  in one episode. I didn't see the point of making her into a toy. If they really wanted  some villains, than Discord or that changling queen would make sense to me.

Discord and the Changeling Queen are both 'one time only villains' just like Gilda lol. I don't think there's been ANY antagonist in the FiM universe who has appeared more than once -- except Luna who became a protagonist after her first appearance.

Gilda makes as much sense as anyone else, I think. I'm not sure if they decided to do her because of her being a fan favorite, or just because they needed someone else to be part of a 'Cloudsdale' pack and wanted to make sure there was variety. After all, a pack with two Wonderbolts and a Rainbow Dash (already released many times as a blind bag before) would get complaints about lack of creativity.
Thank you Thimble for my amazingly cute avatar!
