Anybody seen the Suprise bags?
« on: March 02, 2012, 09:11:21 AM »
Say, has anybody seen the suprise bag ponies in stores? My local Walmart has been cleaned out, I never even had a chance.  :huh:  I wanted to pick up some of the mane six and Bog Macintosh, but never seem to beat the 'bronies' to the store. (no offense to the bronies, btw.)

I've never seen them at Walmart or Target, only at Toys R Us! Maybe you should check there.

I've seen them at my Wal-Mart, but only wave 1. I picked up Minty and I was really lucky, because they clean out fast. Wow.

I want the later waves to come, I want Big Macintosh too xD

We don't have Wave 3 out yet, not in Ohio or the US. That's the wave with Big Mac.  Walmart tends to restock kind of slowly. The one near me is renovating into a super walmart, and they've been super-slow putting out any toys lately. :/

The US is still on wave 1. My walmart has been really diligent about re-stocking theirs. I have found a full box there several times.

I've only ever run into the empty display boxes in TRU. They seem to go fast once they come in.

We've never had them yet in my store and I've been waiting patiently - as far as I know we don't even had a tag on the shelf for them - they are going in the MLP section of the mod right??

Others have mentioned that the US only has wave 1 right now. You might be able to trade some though.  Some people overseas are looking for wave 1 in exchange for their wave 3.  I guess I don't have much new to add other than if they aren't with the ponies then check the cards/up front impulse toy sections.  Sometimes theft causes them to end up there. 
I'm not really on here anymore. Email me if you need my for something.

I went to two different Walmarts to find Blind Bags, and it was obvious that they were supposed to be in stock, but they were sold out for about a month.  When I finally saw some, it was a full box and I took my pick! (I had some of the identification numbers memorized.)  Heh, when I saw those, I was so shocked that I jumped up a bit and ran to the bags.  Just like a kid, huh?  :P

My Walmart just ran out of them, but my Toys R Us still has a few packs.

I found most of them at TRU, and they're currently on wave one. No Big Macintosh for a while, so you'll have to wait. :3c

If your main interest is the mane 6 (big mac isn't out in the USA yet), you can pick up the TRU exclusive case which has them and six exclusive ponies. They tend to always be in stock (at least in my experience)

None of the Walmarts or TRUs in my area have the blind bags or even have a hint that they once had blind bags, such as empty boxes strewn about. u_u I bought the TRU exclusive set already but I really want the other blind bag ponies as well as their cute little trading cards.

Tomorrow, I visit my friends in Orange County so I'll see if the Walmart near the mall carries any. I find Walmarts a bit depressing for some reason so I don't like to shop there. xD

I went to my TRU last week, and didn't see any trace of them.  :(
