It's expected that more will be revealed later like the other members of the mane six. I also hope we're going to get more things like a Fashion Style because honestly, this year exclusives feel really lazy...  The box art looks cute though.

Booring... That said, there's something endearing about seeing the human and pony together

It's like they spent most of their creative energy on the regular releases. That said I do like the sparkly streak.

You're right.   Looks like all of our new characters are going to be in the regular line, also.  In that case, I hope we don't skip any waves this year.

Wait, so no 6 pony set and boxed single exclusive? D:

[Flitter]

No brushable collection & single... Well since there aren't any new characters I don't need to be concerned with these, unless someone new is announced later.

 I'm pretty much ok with this for this year as long as I can find the Explore Equestria Coloratura, Pretzel, Sapphire Joy, Sea Swirl & Meadow Flower I think I'm not upset that there aren't any interesting exclusives.

On a side note: For the first time ever AJ is included in a TRU line!

[Violet CLM]

Ah, I'd been wondering why I'd been seeing Gilda so much on eBay of late.

No new brushables?! D: Well, I suppose my wallet's safe this year, then........

[Galactica]

I am surprised at how dull the exclusives were this year. Nothing new or even exclusive- just old stuff repackaged- or with glitter added. 

It does surprise me since the Guardians of Harmony line seems so creative and new- indicating that there is still interest in the line.  But first the Hasbro pony exclusive and now the TRU exclusives- are just repackaged old stuff with minor variations?  Pretty disappointing.

[Rainbowrific Renia]

Well hey, less money for me to spend on ponies and more money to spend on more interesting things...

[otocolobus_manul]

This would have been a really cute idea if the characters used HADN'T BEEN RELEASED A MILLION TIMES AS PONIES ALREADY. There's so many! Flash Sentry, Principal Cinch, the Dazzlings, the Shadowbolts, Photi Finish's band... every time I think about this "line" I get angrier.

Also, wow, nice job highlighting just how static G4 ponies are. It looks less like 2 characters and more like a doll and her inflatable to oy pony accessory.

[goddessofpeep]

Well that's an easy no.

On one hand, TRU has been the source of most of the best exclusives for years. It's disappointing that they got so lazy this year.

On the other hand, G4 has been getting stale and not much fun to collect for a while now, so it's not so bad to get new products that have zero interest to me. There's absolutely nothing to tempt me to buy with those, not even a neat accessory.

The could have at least did the jointed versions of the regular MLP toys, that would have made a bit more sense

[Galactica]

I wonder if these exclusives (and the SDCC exclusive and the Guardians of Harmony line) shows that the MLP line is moving away from "brushables" entirely.  I suppose it had to happen at some point
