Today we've spotted something very interesting. The official South African My Little Pony Facebook page
has posted an image of a Rarity G4.5 life. While this is nothing that special seeing as she has been released already (although another
variant with glitter), behind her are two figures of Sunset Shimmer and Princess Cadance. Two figure we haven't seen yet. Judging by their looks they appear to be perhaps some budget releases judging by the paint job. Sunset Shimmer doesn't have the yellow parts in her mane and Princess Cadance... well her hair is a solid purple and her Cutie Mark is a solid blue/white color as well.
So far the South African Page is the only one who has posted this one so far. And the post itself didn't provide any other information. The exact post can be found below:
We all have a friend who is a fashionista like Rarity, adventurous like Rainbow Dash and silly like Pinkie Pie. Tag them in the comments below and let them know they are loved, because Friendship is Magic! Buy My Little Pony toys here:
Perhaps these were just some prototypes/mock-ups and they will never be released. Perhaps they are customs/mock-ups judging that Princess Cadance has the same hair as Rarity. But that seems very unlikely to me, especially when you look at the eyes which do look pretty real if you compare them with the official releases. (They have that "print" texture if that makes sense.) And at last, it would be kinda weird for an official MLP Page to post customs/mock-ups. I think we just have to wait and see but as usual, we'll keep you updated.
