Phase 4 Films is currently has downloadable fact sheets available for Rainbow Rocks. Along with the usual huge synopsis, it goes into detail on the tech specs, general product information with release dates, and selling points.
While we have seen "2015" for season 5 multiple times now (including right from the people at Hasbro/Hub), it currently lists it as releasing in November under the "Selling points" section.
Sadly it's still a complete mix. A few things to note in the release could mean it is simply old.
Head on down below the break for theorycrafting and join us in hoping that it isn't just a typo!
Typo/It's old:
On one hand, It points out that season 4 is currently on air. This means the fact sheet may have been created before Season 5 was finalized. It could also mean they are talking about re-runs.
Not a typo/It's new and accurate:
On the other hand, it lists the MLP Facebook Gameloft app as 12 million installs, but it was 11 million last month. They could have rounded up.
It also has the "new" box art for Rainbow Rocks. The Amazon listing wasn't updated with this until a few weeks ago.
We won't know until we get an actual date. You can find the full fact sheet below!
Thanks to Jason for sending it.
SYNOPSIS:
Canterlot High is hosting a musical showcase and Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie
Pie, Rarity, and Fluttershy are going to be performing with their new band, The
Rainbooms. But when a new girl group, The Dazzlings, arrives at CHS, they
convince everyone to turn the friendly showcase into a Battle of the Bands. As
tensions mount between the competing musical acts, a reformed Sunset Shimmer
realizes that the Dazzlings may not be ordinary girls and are after something far
more sinister than just being named Best Band at Canterlot High. The Rainbooms
call on Princess Twilight to return to their world to help them perform a musical
counter-spell so that they can win a battle that now determines the fate of the entire
school.
