US Starlight Glimmer!??!

[Roseprincess1]

It's the second wave of the second set curse. Within each theme (Rainbow Rocks, Cutie Mark Magic, Explore Equestria) there are always 2 sets. Rainbow Rocks had the rainbow tinsel ones and the TAF ones, Cutie Mark Magic has the cutie cascade and the ribbon ones, and Explore Equestria has the bow ones and the translucent ones. Both waves of the first set always show up (so bow Starlight is safe) and the first wave of the second set usually shows up as well (so translucent Starlight is likely to be found). It's the second wave of the second set that usually doesn't make it. Holly Dash was in the second wave of the TAF Rainbow Power so we didn't get her. Ribbon Starlight probably won't show up here because she's in the second wave of the ribbon ponies and it's looking like that wave is only showing up outside the US. Funny thing is the second ribbon wave also has the ribbon version of the Nurse pony that in the US is a Walgreens exclusive.

Nurse red heart?  I found her! she was part of my christmas stuff.
youd think starlight would be around.

Anyone notice that the Wave with Ribbon Hair Starlight is not even listed on Hasbro's Site (at least the US Site) but the Starlight with the headband is? And now the Starlight that is Translucent is also listed on Hasbro's site (not the toy shop site)

As long as I can get ANY version of her I'll be pretty happy... :/ I waited too long to track down a Holly Dash and paid too much for her.

I've thrown in the towel, I'm just going to go for Starlight and Pursey on ebay. The breezie sets never even showed up here, not did Coco Pommel.

Oh jeez, I forgot about Pursey. At least for her I probably should go on eBay for, she probably won't have more than one release.

Mm.... yeah, Pursey Pink sort of disappeared into the ether..... The only ones on eBay are from Hong Kong.... that makes me a little sad, since I don't like buying from China.....

The Alice Band version of Starlight has been found in Italy it seems... according to MLP Merch...

Still no sign of Starlight Glimmer.

I may have gotten the tiniest bit impatient and snagged her headband version on eBay, MOC, for $15 + free shipping. From a US seller, too.

I know that's more than retail but... eh. I get excited over new non-mane 6 ponies, and I don't really want her ribbon hair version as much as the headband one.

That headband one is so cute!!

Melodia reports headband SG in Texas HEB! But my Dad didn't find her in HEBs in Laredo yet.

I will keep a look out for more.

That's awesome that they're being found in Texas...but them being found at a chain exclusive to Texas doesn't make me too confident that we'll see her elsewhere. I recall Texas being one of the only places to get some of the Rainbow Power singles that didn't make it to most of the rest of the US (I had to get a friend to get Cheerilee and I think Rainbow Dash for me from that wave).

Oh well.

At the very least I'm sure some Texas pony people would be willing to help the rest of us out.

[PinkieShyPony]

You actually found some!! Oh I would love one!

Here's the email I sent to my Dad, and his enthusiastic response:

Subject: daddy- buy me a pony, please!

Just heard that these ponies have finally been spotted in the US at the HEB! Next time you're there, could you take a look for me, please?

Pony's name is  "Starlight Glimmer"

Response:

Re: daddy- buy me a pony, please!

I think I may be off work this afternoon. I'll know in about 45 min. If I'm off I'm going directly to every HEB in a 50 mile radius.

DADDY LOVES YOU.

 I think my Dad enjoys the hunt as much as we do!
