CMC set- where did you find yours?

[Cool.Breeze]

Hey pony people 
I was wondering if the "Pony School Pals & Cheerilee" set has been found anywhere other than Target? I'm waiting very anxiously to hear back from Hasbro about it, but my impatience has me curious about what Arena members might know. I'm starting to worry it may be another Target exclusive that us Canadians won't be able to get without ordering online :C If anyone reading this has found them at a Toys R Us/Walmart/some store other than Target, or even spotted them somewhere in Canada yet, I'd love to hear about it!

I would love to find it here!

I've been worried about the same thing! Supposedly there's no exclusive sticker on the packages, but it seems strange that only Target has them. Can you update this thread when you hear back from Hasbro?

Also, has anyone spotted FS Rainbow Dash yet?

I haven't found it yet, but another pony person in my area has, and they found it at Target. I have been stalking walmart though just in case they pop up there. It seems like so much of the pony line is Target exclusive.....even when it isn't advertised as such. But....I'm holding hope.....I have seem glimmer wings at Walmart. I know it's silly, since I have Target's near me, but I never seem to go there. I am ALWAYS at walmart though. lol

I found my set at Target (same with the Castle Friends set).  But mainly because my Target has a much larger Pony section than Walmart (even though Walmart has the blind bags).

sure thing, as soon as they write back I'll bump this with their response I'd also be curious to know about FS RD's status in Canada City (if you know that reference, free bacon for you!)

Thanks for the replies so far, everyone

I have only seen that set at one Target.  I have however, seen the styling Rainbow Dash all over.  I have seen her at Target, Walmart, and ToysRUs. I get all excited when I see her until I realize that I have no actual interest in her.

Maaan, I am seriously hoping that Target just stocks stuff first because they have some agreement with Hasbro or something ;3; I want Scootaloo super badly. Thanks for confirming that FS RD is at a wide variety of shops, though; a friend of mine will be pleased when I tell her that (unless she caved and eBay'ed lol). Your last sentence made me laugh because I think I'll probably react the same way as you xD I don't really collect the fashion styles at current... they're cute and all, but the prices are not. I may collect them someday down the line when more folks are selling them 2nd hand ;P

I haven't seen it at Target, but I did see it at my local flea market last week MIB.  But it was priced at $30.  I don't know what the retail was on it, so I passed.

The thing about the CMC and RCF sets that makes me nervous is that they are in the purple Canterlot packaging :S The glimmer wings ponies were in the white accented packaging, and so is the train, and those have popped up at other places.

I somewhat doubt it is a Target exclusive... most exclusives don't show up in the little package brochures, and the CMC set is shown in there.   It does happen on occasion that a store will get something in long before any others.   Some store chains will pay manufacturers so that they can be the first to offer an item.

I'm waiting for that set and the brushable Celestia with TS and Spike.  I've seen RD in TRU, and I saw blind bags at LW, but they were too pricey for me.

[Catlein]

 WOAH! You saw blind bags where, Sabathamk? These were the ones in the bag, not the little boxes, right? And dare I ask how expensive they were? I figured we wouldn't be lucky enough to get them for $2 like our American counterparts... And when did you see RD at TRU?

[CrystalCrown]

i've only seen it at target so far.

[Ren-Ren]

Target is the only place I've seen them, but it's also the only place in my immediate area that I can buy ponies at (our walmarts don't carry any).
I'd be happy to pick you up a CMC set at cost if you'd like.
