This is what my usual Target looked like when they had the Rainbow, Collector's and Peachy and the Pretty Parlor. They had stocked the PP in the wrong spot. It shold be on the bottom shelf with the ponies.

Saturday there were no Pretty Parlor sets or unicorn/pegasus ponies but was a full set of Rainbows and several Collector Ponies.  The other Target I went to had no retro ponies at all and I haven't seen Collector Ponies there for months

Medley and Sunbeam were at my local Target in Carmel, Indiana this weekend, so the Unicorn & Pegasus set has made it to the midwest. :) That Target also had a bunch of newly-stocked Rainbow and Collector ponies, but they have been out of the Pretty Parlor for a while now.

I'm just trying to find the wave 3, but all of my Targets (except one?) has gotten rid of their retro endcap. If I ask about the retro ponies they just tell me to look in the pony section. Oh well, I'll keep looking for wave 3.

Really? Because when I went looking for them, the dude I talked to looked on his phone and was able to point me to right where they were.

My closest Target is going through an entire store reset (which is ANNOYING OMG because now they have handbags, bras and socks in three different places) but they still have an up-to-the-minute electronic catalog.

It might be a long shot because you may have already, but you may want to ask the manager of the department. That was the dude's title that I talked to.

Thanks! The person that told me to just check the pony section seemed pretty irritated to start with and didn't want to give me the time of day. Next Target run, I'll ask a few different employees.

New ponies sighted in Target here in Georgia, USA.  They only had Glory left.  Since I have oodles of G1 Glory and Moondancer, I left this one behind.  I am on the hunt for Twilight and Sunbeam though.

Ooh, that’s exciting! I wonder if they’ve made it to Florida yet? Maybe I’ll check after work!

I didn't find any unicorn/pegasus ponies today but my Target had another full set of Rainbows in English only boxes. They must have sold the entire set of bilingual boxed Rainbow  ponies in a week.   There were 4 left after I bought mine.  They also had restocked the Pretty Parlor and Peachy set. :cheer:

Our only Target got rid of the retro endcap. I am very disappointed because I really want waves 2&3. Amazon doesn’t have them except from 3rd party scalpers and cannot find them anywhere else for decent/retail price online. Super bummed.

Awww :hug: There are plenty of people right here on the Arena who could help you out, myself included! I'm more than happy to pass along any ponies people need for cost+shipping. We have to share the pony love! ;)

Don't panic yet- the Rainbows are just starting to stick on the shelves after selling out instantly-  and most Targets haven't even put out wave 3 yet at all.  I think as stock starts to stabilize we will see more and they will be easy to get on Amazon and other places- Target may even put them online to sell.

Already I have seen that the 5 pony Amazon set is back in stock (although these 5 doll sets always go on sale at some point so I would wait until the price falls):

I did see this set but it says shipping is usually in 1-2 months. I would think that would mean not currently in stock? I heard a lot of people canceled their preorders for the singles because they kept pushing out the shipping date. Is that accurate?
