On July 17, 2014, licensed-merchandise artist "PixelKitties" tweeted "Dear Princesses @MMeghanMcCarthy & @goldenrusset please let Pixel Pizzaz & her fabulous pigtails be in Rainbow Rocks! pic.twitter.com/t1cXsYDRhD"[1] and writer Meghan McCarthy replied "@pixelkitties @goldenrusset We'll see what we can do."[2]
In the DVD/Blu-ray audio commentary of My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks, Jayson Thiessen states "I like Photo Finish's bandmates as well", and Ishi Rudell expressed disappointment that "we never got to see the Photo Finish band [perform]. Would have liked to see what they came up with."
