I have a translation widget as part of my toolbar, and according to that it says the following;

Wow, great find! :happy: I might want to collect those too! I hope they are sold elsewhere than in Kärkkäinen's store.

The announcement says 7 characters and there's 7 listed.  Does that mean that the blind bag Twilight we saw in the Toy Fair pics won't come in that assortment?  Was Twilight the exclusive pony in the boxed set of characters?

I just checked the Toy Fair photos and those have the same box photo on this site, right down to Starflower and Moondancer's names being switched.

The other ones they showed at Toy Fair were Glory (normal and pearly? vers? it looks like?), Applejack, Bow-Tie, Twilight, Firefly, Medley, and another pink pegasus with pink hair and blue tail, idk who that is.

It says "W1" on this site which I assume means Wave 1, so I guess either the other characters will only be available in the RaMC set, or they'll be in a later wave?

Nice to see these again, anyway. I hope they'll be released over here soon :)

edit: Wrestled with the search function to find the previous threads about these...

I think this is where we first found them.

https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0yAibjV42yW744fKirN58PimjgtEU7q3bevXkccjPSvn9DxGX6SToDU4q4JEBFvfEl&id=100064110038370

These are the most recent pics/info of them, from a UK toy fair. I just realized this post has an actual photo of Ember!! And they corrected the names on the box, hooray! Oddly Glory and Medley are on display there too, even though they don't seem to have brought the RaMC set to that fair. So I'm not sure what's up with that.
(It also lists the Celestials as an Autumn 2023 release!)

oh and it says on the celestial ponies promo pic, coming fall '23  :D awesome, so just a matter of time till we see...what i like to call the 'Stretch mark ponies" :lol:  :P pop up in stores.

gees, i really hope these blind bags are going to be global and not be like the later G4 bb sets when only certain ones only came out in europe and we had random waves coming to NZ, we missed out on so many i gave up.

im super excited about these, they look great though it looks like every unicorn pony comes in moondancer's elephant pose  :lookround: and spike is really big. looks like he just wants hugs  :lol:
