[Taffeta]

Good to see other people writing to Hasbro. I posted my letter today, on the way to campus this morning. Ringlets, I would love to be a fly on the wall of their office when they open your email. Although it will miss the animation...

I got an answer from Hasbro UK...

Not much information.. as in my email I gave them the same exact link... So, not very useful, as always. No matter where Hasbro is located, they never help. :/

That website also has Moonstonr labeled as Cotton Candy!

My guess is what the Bridge Direct rep meant is that they advised them that the Rainbow Ponies would be more familiar over there.

*sigh* I got the same response as LadyPinwheel    
So I guess I get to send Basic Fun my pony excitement filled email too now? 

At least one of the links on their website where it shows rainbow ponies  leads to a toy wholesale site in NZ, for traders to buy from, not individual customers

Why's that Taffeta ? it was just an ordinary email  *innocent smile*  
   

[Taffeta]

No reason O.O.

Besides, even if they are sending out stock replies, the fact people are writing to them and asking them stuff means that there is interest. And they clearly KNOW stuff even if they aren't telling.

If TBD/Basic Fun are distributing then they have the decision over what is sold there. Such a pity that they haven't answered my question about Medley and co. Either they don't have the info about Europe yet and don't know what to say (in which case, that is the answer they should give), or they're swamped with questions...

Or they are less bothered about communicating with us than they seemed at first.

Maybe you could ask your local retailer(s) to carry the ponies and direct them to the wholesale site

So excited for anniversary ponies. Are we getting any twinkle eye ponies? Those were my fav as a girl

[ponycake]

So will the Rainbow Ponies be in the US or only overseas? The rainbow ponies were some of my faves ahhhh

[forever_cuddles]

Still nothing at my local Target. All of you with your 3rd+ wave of releases are so lucky! I'm afraid if and when my Target gets them they'll sell out in the first hour!

Not likely, considering that they need to have specifically made jewels and spaces to put them in their head. Too bad. The TEs are one of Hasbro's most beautiful sets of all time.

I hope they do make some ^^ In three years, there are so many ponies they could make! I hope the don't just limit themselves to the basic ones.

And babies!! I hope they make babies!!

Oh wow, too bad those responses weren't really helpful. They just get back to be politically correct and have a "good" customer service when there is not really anything said and as usual, we normally know more than they do! lol

Been away from the forum for a while, so I found the first pony at my local Target by accident. It took going to 6 different Targets to be able to find the first six ponies. Like many others, I am excited to have the opportunity to get more G1 pony releases.

[achab1984]

I wonder what others one they are going to be making threw the other years?

Ok let me get this straight, the collector pose ponies and Rainbow ponies are for 2018? Or are there other ones that are going to count for 2018?
