Rarity & Pinkie Pie FS Re-release question

[EmBee]

Are the re-releases of Fashion Style Rarity and Pinkie Pie going to have the color variants of accessories as the first releases did?

I have only found Raritys with the magenta-pink necklaces and I want one with a blue..
Thanks!

I'm wondering what's up with these, too. I found Pinkie Pie & Rarity at Target, Pinkie Pie didn't have that umbrella hat, and if I remember correctly, Rairty didn't have any new accessories either. I checked the copyright on the back of the boxes, and they were both 2010, whereas the copyright on Luna and Celestia were 2011. Maybe they're old stock that just got put out?

I have no idea if the Pinkie Pie FS re-release with that totally awesome hat is going to make it to stores, or if it was just a prototype. I'm holding out for it, but I might just buy her next time I see her, regardless the accessories.

Hopefully umbrella Pinkie's in the next wave with AJ, although ironically Pinkie would be saturating the FS' in stores if that were true.

BBTS has new pre orders up, including the 2nd 2013 wave of BBs, I'll take my time because it'll be cheaper and less boring collecting in the long run. http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=HAS22387&mode=retail
Still no FS updates yet sadly.

As far as variants go, I haven't seen but one Rarity since she dried up so i'm sure there'll be plenty to choose from.

My new Pinkie's accessories are different colored than my old one if that helps?

All the G4 sets are proving themselves as having the accessory colour variations - so I would be reasonably certain this will be continue [its been common for Hasbro throughout the G3.5, G3 and G2 lines]. Specific colour accessories with little to no variation is really a G1 thing.

The Rarity and Pinkie which are in the Wave 5, Revision 1 box - which is the most recently we know about - are the same product as have been release in the last 18 months so I am sure you ll see some variation in accessories.

As for the Pinkie with the hats she will be wave 6 - she will probably be packed with someone else, I expect one or more of the FS ponies we have already seen.

Great info, everyone!  Thank you very much.  Yeah, the Pinkies I have seen were not the umbrella kind they were they original release so that makes sense.  Yay I'm psyched!  I'll keep my eyes peeled.

I need that umbrella hat, like, yesterday. I always get excited when I see a FS Pinkie Pie, but am sorely disappointed each time.

YAY!!!  Thank you 

Yes, I do hope we get umbrella Pinkie too.  Fingers crossed.
