I don't think the Twilight pony comes as a regular mold brushable single and since her EG Mini comes in a 4 pack she probably isn't getting a Mini and Pony pack. I wonder if she is gonna get a princess mold brushable in a fancy box.

Awwww, the Library!! :D cant see it clearly, does it have Twilights owl??

Yes!  So cute.

I don't think the library is an exclusive since I bought it somewhere else- it is SO cute but very small and detailed on the front but very shallow and empty in the back just like the barn for the AJ set.

No, none of the items are exclusive except the first three pictured labeled Toys R Us on the boxes.

I really like the glittery look on them! *is a sucker for shiny things*
Alas there is no TRU near me, so I won't be tempted :P
The Sapphire Shores FS is really cool though!

I grabbed the new FS yetsretday, and it seems hasbro has cheaped out yet again with the clothing. It's now all 2-piece, hard plastic, snap-together clothes, and it's fairly easy to see on display since the pieces have an obvious seam where they meet. They're also a right pain to get on and off the pony. Very disappointing, imo.

I dunno if it's cheaping out since tbh plastic is more expensive to make than fabric. After all even dollar store dolls have fabric dresses. I do remember hearing someone at Toy Fair talk about how the new hard plastic snap on clothes are easier for children to put on than the old rubber ones. So I guess it's more a "dumbing down" than anything.

I'm not all for accessories (I prefer naked ponies :P) but if anything wouldn't cloth be easier for a child to put on? Its not like they're putting pants on the pony...
Oh no!

I don't think Hasbro is "cheaping out" with the plastic clothing.  I think plastic toy clothing is easier for young children to snap onto the pony, as opposed to wrestling a pony into a fabric dress.  (I remember getting a baby pony into the G1 dragon suit was a real pain in the butt.)  Don't forget that the MLP demographic trends younger than it did in the 80s.

I thought the soft plastic clothes were much easier, since all you had to do to get them on the pony is bend them a little. You have to force these to get them on, and they pop off very easily.
