I'm sure what we're all wondering what this is about, I'm not sure if it was just for the ad or it's a hint from the show itself.
For the past half a year, we have slowly seen these new "Rainbow Power" figures invading stores just about everywhere. It's an entire toy line, complete with Equestria Girls and various forms of the usual Hasbro original ponies.
(Ohmygosh I'm so buying Rainbow Power Pinkie Pie)

Rainbow Falls Episode?
SYNOPSIS
Rainbow Dash is headed to the Equestria Games
trials with the Ponyville Relay Team, but becomes torn when she is offered the
chance to join the more competitive Cloudsdale team.
In my opinion, I think that maybe there's another powerful artifact hidden in Rainbow Falls, enchanted water or rainbows, I DUNNO. lol But I kinda think Rainbow Falls has to do something with rainbow power. Maybe Rainbow Falls will be like the Crystal Empire, rainbowfying all the ponies there! :3
Whats in the Tree of Harmony Box?!!?!?
I know I'm not the only one wondering this. But What the heck could be in that box!?!? :/ I bet rainbow power has to do with everything about that box AND the Elements of Harmony.

Do you remember that RAINBOWS made the vines go away? Remember a RAINBOW trail appeared down from the tree, went to the ground, a flower blossomed with the MYSTERIOUS box IN it?
(http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/152/d/0/anigif_by_niightmaremoon-d67ddwk.gif)
Remember when a RAINBOW appeared, defeating the villains when the Mane 6 used the Elements of Harmony?
Since they can't use the Elements of Harmony anymore, they might earn Rainbow Power as some sort of power-up from the box.
This is just my opinion and everything I think about rainbow power. :D

I just hope we are not spoiled by merchandising AGAIN! >:O
Just pretend this is a not-show-related idea of hasbro to sell more toys... not thaat i dont like the design or something, but i dont wan't to know what the box does BEFORE it opens. :'(
When you take a look at this:
(http://news.everfree.net/files/2013/09/PonyRainbowPower.jpg)
I think it really is like the thing with the crystal-pony form at the end of the season 3 opener (temporary and just something nice to look at)
___________________________________________________
The Designs of Rarity, Dr.Hooves and Applejack on this merch is one of the worst i ever saw.

Yeah, they spoiled crystal ponies and Sunset Shimmer with toys and released the Canterlot Wedding toys early. So, we know by now that they have a habit of jumping the gun.
Also, WOOHOO finally, proof that Hasbro renamed Time Turner to Dr. Hooves!
But yeah. We didn't see crystal ponies coming, exactly, but the crystal blindbag ponies suddenly made sense after the season 3 premiere. I saw Sunset Shimmer being a significant character coming, though. I thought she'd be in the show, so I was a bit off.
Funniest thing is, I think these rainbowfied toys have been around for at least a year. I remember seeing the rainbowfied Fluttershy a long time back and going "Okay.. That's weird, but... okay, I guess."
I suppose, if you want any of them, you'd better buy them before rainbowfication becomes canon in the show. :P After that, there might be a surge of people buying them.

There's no problem, except now the mystery may have been spoiled for us just because Hasbro can't help but release the toys before they become relevant in the show.
By the way, everyone, here's the rainbowfied Fluttershy I saw way back:
Spoiler: show
Post Merge
Apparently, that Fluttershy came out this year, so I must've seen her sometime earlier this year. These rainbowfied ponies have been out for about a year, or maybe they were among the toys shown off at that toy fair that we first saw Sunset Shimmer at.
I have to admit, I really, really like rainbowfied DJ Pon3's design.

I picked up one of those Crystal Pony Key chains early 2012 if not some time in 2011. They've been out for a very, very long time. It's just only until S3 that it came back into circulation (and Toys'R'Us is where I got my original key chain).
Dem Prismatic Beams.
From what I can gather a lot of why the toys 'jump' the gun is because of logistics. If a child sees something and they want it then and there it's easy to just go ahead and drive to the store and pick it up rather than wait two months and the interest of that child fades. Or in the reverse case where the toy is bought first and the child makes the connection, or something.
I've browsed the toys quite a bit but more than likely I'd forget them the next day unless I continually looked at them. Although I do not recognize the prismatic pony figures.

Yeah its a matter of taste, but look at rarity and dr hooves and please tell me, that you see the mess they made with the designs. (figurines)
On the other hoof, I really like almost everypony on the picture in the commercial - because the legs and wings look diffirent than the toys.

I think the only time, so far, that a toy really spoiled anything was Sunset Shimmer.
As soon as I saw her pony figure, I knew she was going to be a significant character. Though, most people didn't get on board until photos of the back of the box started popping up, where it said she used to be one of Celestia's students.
Due to Hasbro's history of releasing toys before they become significant to the show, I seriously wouldn't be surprised if it turned out that the mane six will become rainbowfied.

This reminds me of the rumor I just heard.
There's actually no proof of this happening. We have to wait for confirmation.
Though... signs are pointing that it actually is happening.

Alright, so. Rainbowfied pony toys.
This is the box I originally saw rainbowfied Fluttershy in:
(http://thumbs3.ebaystatic.com/d/l225/m/m7aJN6IEWQ3ZRiBA06s-t1w.jpg)(http://thumbs.ebaystatic.com/d/w225/m/mDydSgu2KdOyjFIBAlisRcA.jpg)
She comes with Derpy!
There's the Daring Pony Set, which comes with Daring Do, Princess Twilight, and rainbowfied Rainbow Dash:

Sadly, Daring Do and Derpy in these sets look weird and low quality. :l *Sigh* Hasbro... And what's with Hasbro's obsession with the word Dazzle? Daring Do Dazzle? Diamond Dazzle Tiara?
There's even rainbowfied Princess Cadence.

Pinkie Pie comes with Snips and Snails, for some reason.
(http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-I3K5xHbvybA/Uj_j0aAlEJI/AAAAAAAAC6g/g07AtTRq0TY/s1600/4.png)
And, as we saw from the photo Valy Wave posted, rainbowfied Twilight, Rarity, and Applejack come together with rainbowfied Dr. Hooves and DJ Pon3.
Luckily, if the mane six do become rainbowfied in the show, I think their color schemes are going to be different than the toys. Just take a look at this pic:
Toy Applejack has red and pink stripes in her mane and tail, but in the picture, she has red and green stripes.
Toy Rarity has yellow stripes in her mane and tail, but in the picture, she has blue stripes.

Notice that it's not even truly a rainbow, but rather a "rainbow"/spectrum made up of the mane six's coat colors.
Purple, blue, white, yellow, orange, and pink.

Personally, I think it has something to do with the box from the premiere, and the EQG movie has a rainbow theme because, I'm guessing, Hasbro wants to do a rainbow theme. They seem to be finishing up with their Crystal Empire theme, for the most part.

I always thought up my own fanfics related to the mane six gaining a power up and changing in looks. In my thoughts they wore armor relative to the clothes they wore in the Grand Galloping Gala with a bit of magical girl theme.

One upside: I saw rainbow power pony toys at Walmart yesterday when I was shopping for this kid's birthday gift, and even though they look a bit weird, I kinda like their quality. They actually sculpted Pinkie's mane right.

Here are the rainbowfied toys I saw at Walmart. They're different ones than the figures already posted in this thread.
The links lead to Walmart's website. If you don't feel like clicking the links, just view the images from Strawberry Reef in the spoilers.
Here's the Pinkie (http://www.walmart.com/ip/My-Little-Pony-Zoom-n-Go-Pinkie-Pie-Pony/32664967) whose mane they actually sculpted right.
A rainbowfied Rainbow Dash (http://www.walmart.com/ip/My-Little-Pony-Flip-Whirl-Rainbow-Dash-Pony-Figure/30954262) who flips.
Another rainbowfied Rainbow Dash (http://www.walmart.com/ip/My-Little-Pony-Zoom-n-Go-Rainbow-Dash-Pony/32664962).
Rainbowfied Twilight Sparkle (http://www.walmart.com/ip/My-Little-Pony-Fantastic-Flutters-Princess-Twilight-Sparkle-Pony-Figure/32664957) with detachable wings.
Rainbowfied Cadence (http://www.walmart.com/ip/My-Little-Pony-Fantastic-Flutters-Princess-Cadance-Pony-Figure/32664959), also with detachable wings. I wouldn't be surprised if Cadence ends up involved in whatever happens in the season finale. Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, I dunno.
I'm guessing Strawberry Reef will keep updating as more rainbow power toys come out. There's even a rainbow power Pinkie Pie who has a helicopter.

Probably returning the elements and unlocking the box will allow anypony to recieve certain... hum... "boosts"? Since there are many pony models apart from the Mane 6.

... Oh boy. I hope their rainbow power transformations (if there are any) won't get really repetitive, like digivolutions. Digimon is a pretty awesome anime, but you get tired of sitting through "Agumon, digivolve to... *Transformation, part of the theme song* (Name I forgot here)" especially if another digimon digivolves right after that.
