G4 'zilla ponies
« on: July 20, 2015, 02:09:00 PM »
The G4 zilla ponies are my favorite size and style of ponies, but I've only managed to pick up two -- Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie. I found them at Family Dollar long ago, and it seems like they had Rarity and Twilight Sparkle(?). I stopped in today, and they only have brushables and blind bags. So, a few questions:

1) Are Celetia and Cadence zillas still available in stores? Are/were they found at a specific chain of stores?

2) Rainbow Dash and Applejack are international releases, correct?

3) Does anyone have them all? Pics welcome. :biggrin: I'm thinking really hard about selling off some HTF G4 ponies and MIB items to pay for the things I really want, like the rest of the zillas.

Rainbow Dash and AJ are definitely hard to find in the US (I believe they encountered the same shipping issues as the fashion style AJ and Daisy Dreams), gotta befriend someone in Canada/UK to find em.

Regarding the FS Twilight, does she have wings or not?

(And if you're selling harder to find G4's, let me know, I'd be interested if I can get a deal on some)

Dash and AJ are hard to find in the US- although there were a ton on ebay for a while from China, they seem to have dried up.

You can get Twilight, Cadence, Celestia at many different places, they are not rare or hard to find. They are cheapest at Fred Meyers, who have pretty great sales so they are sometimes $7.99.  They are $9.99 - $11.99 most other places.  (Target, Kmart, etc.)

If you can't find them in a store you can get them on Amazon.com ($11.99) or Hasbrotoyshop.com ($9.99).  They sometimes go out of stock on Hasbrotoyshop but they usually restock pretty fast.

Those fakies... I NEED 'EM!!! :whoa:

I believe Target and Walmart still have the zilla Twilight (she's the one with the removable rainbow wings).  Cadance and Celestia were at Kroger for a while, but I got mine on Amazon since I don't live near a Kroger.  If I'm correct, they're still on Amazon for $11.99 each.

AJ and Rainbow Dash are impossible to find in the US, sadly.  I got AJ from a friend in Australia and Rainbow Dash in a bulk order from China.

Anyway, I have them all!  Celestia and Cadance aren't in this picture, but I do have them.  ^.^

Thank you all for the info! I was mistaken about seeing Twilight Sparkle. I'll see if my husband will check for the new ones at Meijer tonight while he's at work. If Meijer doesn't have them, I would probably buy them on Amazon or try Hasbro. Wish I would have nabbed AJ and Dash when I saw a Chinese seller with both on eBay.

Oh, no! Now I might have to hunt those down, too. Space might be an issue at this point. :lol:

Yes! Thanks for sharing. You've just about convinced me that I do need all of them.

Huh.  The FAKIES managed to get Twilight's eye shape correct but Hasbro can't figure it out. 

Where are these fakies?  They would make fabulous customs.

Yes! I think they were just posted on Friday actually

Nope!

I'll send everyone a PM in a minute. They're $6 a piece currently, which beats most sources of the real thing but does add up a bit when you're wanting to buy six of them at once. Personally I'm wondering if I want to find someone who only wants some of them and we could split an order somehow.

(They're probably going to be lighter than the real thing, because they're advertised as hollow and a bit soft. That combined with their eye designs makes me suspect they're from the same people as the oversized fillies, which seem to be of really good quality, though I don't know if squishiness affects customizing at all.)


EDIT: Sent! Here's the backside photo, btw, if you're curious what the cutie mark for the pegasus body is or want a better look at the hair colors:

Where does one get these? I'm considering buying the whole set, at $6 a piece. Though I'm wondering if this is an international deal, that could get expensive quickly, shipping wise.

Ah rooted tails!   I bought a set- I waited too long on the giant Chinese set that had AJ and Dash and totally missed out!  Don't want to miss out again :D

problem is that Aliexpress doesn't ship to my state so had to send it to my mom in Cali-  hopefully I'll visit them soon!

Thanks Violet for the heads up!  I think these are pretty cute :D

(also picked up one of those snow-globe twilights)
