I figure I could sell a group of the other ponies for half the cost of the set. Put up an auction with Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Dewdrop Dazzle, Rarity for $14.99 on Ebay.  That's half the price of the set if it sells. Then sell NMM separately for around $10. Total cost for Minty for me? $5.00 if that plan works.

Hasbro finally puts out Minty... in a giant fan set with EVERY other character a repeat release....

It's really apparent by the "with Minty" label next to her on the package and no name label for any other ponies in the front that they know exactly what they've done here.  :rolleyes:
Jussst what I was gonna say! Those tricky you-know-whats pay attention after all, then capitalize on it in the most expensive way possible.

Bad Hasbro, BAD! :throw:

Well, finally! And a set that has ponies I want that I don't already have, mostly. Sometimes being chronically late helps me out!

The box might be a North American release. It looks like there are only 3 languages (which I suspect are French and Spanish besides the English). European releases tend to have a crapton of other languages on them.

But yay Minty and NMM!

MINTY! :heart:

Finally, a real release! *wipes tear* I never thought I'd see the day.  :newpony:

On a less exciting note (for me at least), looks like Glitter Sunset Shimmer is coming soon too:

Sunset Shimmer does not appear to have flames on her feet.  I wonder which version is the final.
I noticed that too, but I just went and looked back at the pictures on Sunset Shimmer with the flames and they are on the opposite side than the display side in that pic. I wonder if they decided against the flames or if she has them but they are facing the back?

I was wondering that also? Guess we will have to wait till some one gets her and takes her out.

That is awesome that she's getting a proper release, but WHHHHHY is it in a massive set that a)I already have everything else in, and b)most likely never come to the UK?

*takes a moment to sulk that the cool stuff NEVER comes to the UK*.

Ah well, maybe this means she'll show up on ebay for lower prices and I'll nab her there. Ho hum.

Celestia barely mane, and no tail... Minty with Applejack vector.. Stop being lazy hasbro, hire new graphic artists..

Doesn't Minty's hair look awfully like the hair on the G3 Box art? Very detailed strands as compared to G4's more flowing style, and the tail is very G3.

You and me both, buddy :( Hopefully Hasbro will get their head out of their trousers and see there are countries beyond the US again soon....
