If they're showing up in Big Lots stores already it sounds like they're skipping normal distribution and heading straight for close-outs. 

I know around here the same items have been kicking around forever - my TRU still has Pinklestias and CMC wedding sets.  It wouldn't surprise me if a lot of places are in similar positions and just aren't ordering stock.

Nurse Redheaet is usually an exclusive at Walgreen's in the US so  her pearly version probably is too. I checked Kmart today and only found 3 Rainbow Power Fluttershys and one mask Pinkie that was falling off the card. No pearly ponies in my area yet. I want Coloratura and Sea swirl.

I gave up on waiting and just eBayed them all in a lot from China. I can't wait until they get here. It includes all the non-main six ones.

Does it also include the 5 mane 6?

I did the same. With my toddler, it's a lot harder for me to put the time into hunting ponies, so I figured why not?

Okay, well I know that most people can't find any in the stores, but there are a lot on Amazon, they seem a little more expensive than our normal brushables. If you want to get them early, then I would suggest Amazon, it seems a little more reliable than eBay. Here are the links:

Wave 1

Pinkie Pie: https://www.amazon.com/My-Little-Pony-Explore-Equestria/dp/B014KV96CC/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1474418542&sr=8-9&keywords=my+little+pony+explore+equestria

Fluttershy: https://www.amazon.com/My-Little-Pony-Equestria-Fluttershy/dp/B0142MDY5O/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1474418542&sr=8-7&keywords=my+little+pony+explore+equestria

Coloratura: https://www.amazon.com/My-Little-Pony-Equestria-Coloratura/dp/B0142MDY4K/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1474418542&sr=8-5&keywords=my+little+pony+explore+equestri

Starlight Glimmer: https://www.amazon.com/My-Little-Pony-Equestria-Starlight/dp/B0142MDYCW/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1474418542&sr=8-10&keywords=my+little+pony+explore+equestri

Wave 2

Twilight Sparkle: /cannot find her on Amazon/

Pretzel: https://www.amazon.com/My-Little-Pony-Explore-Equestria/dp/B016QDTV1I/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1474418903&sr=8-13&keywords=my+little+pony+explore+equestria

Rainbow Dash: /cannot find on Amazon/

Cherry Berry: https://www.amazon.com/My-Little-Pony-Cherry-Berry/dp/B016QDTV0E/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1474419066&sr=8-8&keywords=my+little+pony+explore+equestria

Wave 3

Applejack: /cannot find her on Amazon/

Sea Swirl: /cannot find her on Amazon/

Sapphire Joy: /cannot find on Amazon/

Meadow Flower: /cannot find on Amazon/

So it doesn't seem that wave three has been realeased on Amazon, and some of the ponies are pretty expensive, I bet if you wait a few more weeks, their prices will go down.

Hopefully this will help a few of you  ;)

I've heard that Big Lots is no longer a close out store.  I know mine sells ponies for $5 compared to Walmart's $4.95.  If that's the case, it may just be that Big Lots happened to get the new wave a little earlier than other stores.

Is the quality of those bought from China usually as good as what arrives on the shelves?

I've bought the 6 that are in stock at HasbroToyShop, but its tempting to buy that lot. Then Id only be missing AJ....

I saw one!  In a Walmart - it was Fluttershy. She was mixed in with the headband ones - and I haven't seen any since. That was about a month ago, and they have done weekly restocks of headband ponies since then.

Where in Ontario? I haven't seen them yet in simcoe, Brantford or hamilton

I can't speak for Thunderwing, but I had a similar situation in a Scarborough Walmart (hi neighbour!). Found a random pearly Pinkie maybe a month or so ago, and then the last time I went she was gone and there was nothing else recent. I hardly step into Walmart but that specific store has not had a real pony section for like half a year; maybe fifteen pony/EQG toys out at a time mixed in with Zelfs, Tsums, and LPS, so I'm honestly surprised there WAS something new all of a sudden.

I need to check one of the better Walmarts near me to see if the pearly ponies are in, but they all have had skimpy pony sections lately so I'm thinking not.

Ive been debating getting that lot on ebay. I love the thrill of the hunt, and the excitement of finding one. But I REALLY want all 8 non-mane 6, and no way will I be able to find them all. And they are cheaper than they will be in stores here. But on the other hand I do prefer MIB over loose.....

Hi neighbor!
My local walmarts only have a 1' wide pony section at best, sometimes only 1 or 2 mane 6 and a half box of wave 14 blind bags squeezed between LPS and Lala loopsie.

I found Coloratura at my Big Lots store (UT) this past week.  I was surprised to see her at Wal-Mart as well.
