Comic Con / Fair Candidate?  If so, she's definitely no drama pony...

[Summerlycoris]

yes, these reminded me of that Rarity too These are newer listings on Taobao though, they just sold out yesterday. So it's interesting that more were made. Fluttershy had 19 in stock when I first saw them, they sold out quickly.

Yes it is interesting more were made, hopefully this does mean they'll be in stores.

I absolutely love these!  There was a Dash as well:

I was thinking about if they did a Rainbow Dash this morning and how, and I kinda figured that they wouldn't- due to her rainbow colours it'd be difficult to add more colour to her mane (which sounds kinda silly now.) I'm really glad they did make one though, and they did manage to add more colours which is a plus.

And more Pinkie.

That Pinkie looks really interesting, the cutie mark reminds me of the one that was glittery on the inside like Wysteria, except this one looks like she's in a fashion style pose?

I wouldn't be surprised if that Pinkie Pie was the SDCC / Fair pony.  We all know that Hasbro loves to pimp out Pinkie as much as possible.

Fluttershy's mane almost reminds me of Celestia, and Pinkie's is kinda like Cadence's. Interesting to see the pink/black/white cutie mark again on Pinkie, but just that seems kinda boring for the SDCC pony, since she isn't that much different than the regular FS Pinkie.

I  do not think that she is the exclusive but I do think that she is for something special.  Maybe a more general release in celebration of the 30th anniversery?  THat color combo both on this FS and on the other glitter Pinkie make me think that they are trying to make her look more "sophisticated" in celebration of something.

Just what I was thinking! Having two Pinkies with the same symbol but so different otherwise suggests a bigger theme in play than exclusive con exclusives, to me. Plus with Wysteria in the mix... Gosh, an anniversary theme would be amazing, especially if it means more ponies!

It's possible the con pony could be part of the theme, but last year aside, Pinkie seems rather plain for being the exclusive.

I LOVE that Pinkie Pie!!!!!! 

[Lady Starflower]

Figures they come out just as I'm trying to figure this Taobao stuff out hahaha

[reanna-mator]

Gaah! Want that Fluttershy! >.<

[shadowdreamer]

That big pinkie with the black streak is so pretty!! I want her so bad now....I really hope they do release all of these, I need them.

[Lady Starflower]

I want all the mane 6 with that crazy tinsel, I totally LOVE it!!

[BigBrotherPony]

It's a bit funny to see these as I think the combination of the masks and the tinsel make these ponies tie together as a theme much better than what they are actually releasing!

The combo feels very carnival like or Mardi Gras... And makes sense with the masks.

I wonder if this is what they originally planned to do then Hasbro needed to cut costs or something and reverted back to regular hair!

It wouldn't surprise me;)

I LOVE that Pinkie! I agree she's a little boring to be the comic con pony but I'm hopeful this is part of some sort of wide release. I like the idea of something to do with the anniversary

Thats certainly a possibility - anything is possible with Hasbro. Although, perhaps, we would therefore see a Sunset Shimmer with the same tinsel going on? Although again...its Taobao...its completely unpredictable and very far from an accurate indication of what is going on.

I like that Pinkie - and the fact there is a FS reflecting the glitter version is hopefully an indication of her in a release in this style at some point. However, I think this would be a disappointment if it turned out to be either the Fair or the CC pony - in my personal opinion. I cant imagine a glitter symbol Pinkie is going to be what we see at Comic Con however - some how she doesnt fit the brony market which Hasbro are after with this release and for the Fair its a $50 pony figure...a blinged up Pinkie is going to be a major disappointment.
