Wondering if anyone in Canada has had any difficulty finding rbd and cherilee.... so far both the Ottawa bronies and bronies of canada groups are reporting inability to find... wondering ifhere is the same
Betcha you'll find them no problem this week...

I've snagged a few... but most of the McDonald's I hit this week... were on AJ and Lily. Which would mean that RD and Cheerilee will be this week...

I'll be headed out tomorrow maybe... to see if I can get them :D

I swapped out a Twilight Sparkle for a Fluttershy at a McDonalds I went to, so who knows where mine are in the order.  I wish McDonalds had a kids salad.

They're all over the place around here. Most are on Lillyblossom and Applejack. But I checked one last night that still had Pinkie Pie and Rarity. o_O;  I'm missing Twilight and Fluttershy! ;-;

Finally fininshed up my McD pony collection today! I went to 5 different locations over the past week to seek these out! I got lucky today by finding a Twilight Sparkle who I think was the hardest to find.

i was informed that they will stop selling these on the 30th (29th at night), so got about 9 more days to go until they're gone!

Dang it, the one I hit at lunch today still had the Beanie Babies out!  (Bank and Sparks, for you fellow Ottawa people.)  I may feel the need to go McD hopping tomorrow.

I think my co-workers were more disappointed than I was today that there were no Ponies.  :P

Aw, I loved the old beanies! Does anyone know how many or what they were?

Also, could someone please tell me what "The Customer Appreciation Set" consists of?

I think they meant the build a bear toys, since that's what was before ponies.

I think I'll go and see if I can get another pony today. I still only have two..

I went to the McDonald's I got my two complete sets from (out of the Customer Satisfaction box) over the weekend and they had Rarity and Pinkie Pie, so I got an extra of each to trade. I'm surprised they had those two, though, since they're number 1 & 2, and that particular McDonald's always releases the toys in order. So it's definitely odd that they would still be on the first two this late in the promotion. Unless there were a few of them left before they moved on to the next ones, and they've now gone through all the others already.

I finally got them all, after much toing and froing. Seriously, why had none of the places I went to heard of the customer satisfaction box? It would've saved us gas and time if they had. Probably money too... lol

I had to switch out Rainbow Dash multiple times because the ones I kept getting had hideously applicated eye paint. The one I finally settled on has sort of messed up eye paint still, but she looks a lot less frightening then the others ones I almost got saddled with. A lot of my McDs ponies have sloppy paint in general (like my double exposure-freckled AJ, bless her adorable heart), but you can't expect too much from mass-produced Happy Meal toys I guess. xD

Edit: The pony toys made in Vietnam all seem to have this weird molding "scab" on their front leg while the McDs ponies made in China do not. Hmm.

Just got Twilight, yay!
I'm actually having fun getting a "surprise" toy.

My Twilight has this on her leg. It looks awful. The paint on her hair and eyes is a bit chipped too. Eh.

I noticed that on some of mine, too. I didn't even think to look at the markings (I assumed they were all made in China like everything else) but yeah, all the ones that say Vietnam on them have that weird chunk cut out of the front of their leg.

Mine are terrible quality compared to past McD's releases. Poor Rainbow Dash is the worst off by far. Lily Blossom is so cute I got two of her, but even she's got issues. I might take some pictures tomorrow if I think of it. Even still, they're not that much worse than the $5 brushables.

I went to my local McDs hoping to get some possible upgrade ponys and got a 2011 Rainbow Dash, so tonight I'm going back at suppertime to see what other old ponys they got!

I'm guessing the ponies sold really well if they're selling out of them more than a week early. I'm glad I got mine early. Though, I kind of wish I had picked up two extra sets to trade instead of one, but I didn't really have the money at the time. I'm still holding out on trading the set I have because I don't know what I want to trade it for, but I'm thinking I could try getting Skywishes or Cherry Pie and Diamond Rose for them. Maybe I should just hold out on trading the set until later though.

I got a Cheerilee from the first run today. D: She's cute though I like her.
