I’m sorry if this is a double post but I didn’t notice it mentioned. The Collector and Rainbow Ponies have been showing up at Toys R Us stores all across Canada for $12.99! It is so amazing to see them in stores!

I also saw on Facebook where someone in the UK found some 35th anniversary ponies at a store called Toymaster.
Oh good!  Thanks for letting me know!  :)  I hold out hope for maybe getting the Grooming Parlor with Peachy yet!

Although Sunlight as a single pony looks so adorable!

My order status online for rainbow ponies preordered thru US Amazon had said set for delivery & arriving Friday(today, woohoo!), but I DID think it was weird I didn't the usual email "we shipped blah blah blah..."  with tracking #. 

 Today, I received an email at 10am about how the order has now been delayed!  Oh and with no est. arrival date.... GRRRR.... :enraged:

What is going on?  Is the demand too high for BF?  Anyone receive their preorder ponies from US Amazon?  :work:

I've had Amazon completely cancelled orders before... hope this is just a "temp out of stock" issue and not a "product no longer avail".  Boo!
Same. Exact. Thing. Happened to me too... :(

I stopped by my closest Target to see if they had the Unicorns and Pegasus ponies, but they only had the Collectors and the Pretty Parlor. I did notice (since there were two Mintys) that there seem to be two different packaging setups for the Collectors. Alas, I was not smart enough to get a picture.

The very nice service rep checked other stores for me and it looks like there's a Target 12 miles away that has 32 retro ponies in stock!! I know where I'm going on Sunday!

Me three, and I am very annoyed by this point. They canceled my 5 pack last month.

Right?! If it weren't 12 miles away, past dinner time, and my sprained back twinging, I would have headed straight over!!

The DCPI came up Collectors ponies for me when I asked, but I'm hopeful with 32 ponies in stock, at least SOME of them will be Unicorns and Pegasus

Shatyr: let us know what u find!  I'm so excited for you :heart:

The other thing I'm wondering is how 1 store ends up with 32 when most stores only get 1 set at a time....?  Lol.

My Target was still a minor mess. Retro endcap had 3 CP ponies, 2 Pretty Parlors, and an empty spot for Rainbows.

On a side note, they didn't have the Star Trek or I Dream of Jeannie Megos that my friend said he stocked at his store but they finally had more retro Care Bears.

When I looked up the DCPI it said "Master My Little Pony" or something like that.  Which makes me wonder if it's a master code that tracks ALL the MLPs, like Collector ponies AND Rainbows AND unicorn/pegasi?

32 ponies is still a ton, though!!

Thank you for posting this!!!! Just ordered my Rainbow Ponies from the website!  :hearts: There was a limit of 5 per person so I will go get Parasol in person but I wanted to order as many as I could since I worry about them selling out before I get there.

Nice to hear that Toymaster has managed to get hold of them but also a bit of a pain.

Toymaster is an association of independent toy shops so there is no guarantee that everyone will have them. The closest comparative is they run as a cooperative. This enables them to make bulk purchases that they otherwise wouldn't be able to get.

For example A1 toys in Scotland is a member of Toymaster but according to their website they don't stock the retro's. :(

I'm going up there next week so can have a look but, :(.
Yay!! but :(

(The closest Toymaster is also about an hour from me if I don't want to go over the moors).

Yeah. My concern as well. No luck in Wood Green this morning at their connected branch.

There are a few others in the area I am moving to in a couple of weeks so I will check them too...

If they don't come out here, I vote we get together a pony army and invade the East Coast.
