I find it a bit worrying you haven't seen them local to you, Glitterball. I wonder if it's COVID.
Though as I said Gusty and Sparkler at least are on the JL site.

And Amazon.

So are the earthies (wave 3) now but they're even more stupidly expensive so clearly some seller trying to scalp. I'm going to keep waiting. They'll show eventually. Hopefully...

Sigh.


I am content with my Gusty and Surprise, for now. Like you, I will wait and see if they appear in the stores (and may buy a duplicate).   :P

My local JL doesn't even have a shelf tag for these ponies. The staff keep changing the displays around and I have to keep asking them where they would be if they get them back in stock! Fenwicks, Entertainer = zilch. Smyths have a couple of Medleys but no new stock. Local Toymaster shop have had nothing new since Confetti release.

I am guessing that distribution has indeed been disrupted by the 'rona. At least there is a semblance of "some" new stock trickling through rather than none at all, I am thankful for this!

To think, just a few years ago, we were having forum discussions of what a cool fantasy it would be for G1 to be re-booted (sort of) and now, here we are! Stayin' positive!  :biggrin:

Incredibly, I've just been able to order Gusty off the Target website!  After over a dozen "your item is back in stock" emails that led only to the website saying she was out of stock again, over a period of months, my patience has finally been rewarded.  Now to wait for her arrival... :work:
Thanks to Shimmlight for the new avatar image  :biggrin:

I'm feeling antsy.  I really want Tootsie!  I've never actually owned her or seen her in person and a minty one sounds so wonderful.

@Aflame, belated happy birthday and a nice bunch of ponies there!

Surprise was on Amazon...I got her from there.

There are place markers for the earthies but not from Amazon's own store yet so the prices are stupid.

I found the Pretty Parlour at Winners in Canada for $10 today. Worth checking if you don't have it yet

An impromptu trip to another town and a visit to Build-a-Bear to spend vouchers for my kid...

...and a sneaky pop into HMV, for moi!

I got their last little set of tiny ponies, I have the one with Snuzzle and Butterscotch.  :)

On the look out for Cotton Candy, should I stumble across any more in the future.

My BF Tootsie was NOT cheap, but the vastly reduced price of the BF Parlour more than made up for it. They're on their way from Amazon along wi BF Starshine
My Mascots (so far): Twisty Tail, G2 Trixiebelle, Starcatcher, Twilight Sparkle. All variants & pictures of these are appreciated. Piccies courtesy of Griffin, Blumiere, Littlebabyribbon, & Starscout

I managed to buy Gusty, Surprise, and Sparkler on Target’s site. ^_^ Heartthrob was sold out, so I’m still on the hunt for her and Tootsie‘s wave.

Yeah...I am just not going to pay hiked prices for ponies I already have in the original. I mean, I want CJ because she was my third pony, but I do still have my original CJ. I feel like people are taking some advantage of the pandemic by hiking the prices and I don't feel like playing ball.

I'm gonna wait till Amazon proper have them in stock, rather than third party sellers.

I’m going to be getting Cherries Jubilee and Heart Throb from Amazon.uk along with something else. I know it’s a third part seller for Cherries Jubilee but I’m not risking having the same problem I had for Moondancer and Glory some of you know what I’m talking about. I had to wait till after my holiday to get them.

A mother pony can be protective of her young just like dogs.
