The Big W here had some new pony stuff, but I had to hunt for it!

The Cutie Mark brushables and some older EQG dolls were stuffed into their usual isle (mostly overtaken by a huge amount of those silly whistling birds), the "free keychain" plushies were hidden on a shelf full of TY Beanie Boos and other assorted plushies, and the Pop! display was behind a pallet full of empty boxes.

There's not a TRU nearby anymore since they closed the only one recently.

Oh man, I bought the Canterlot High Pep Rally set at Big W a few months ago for the full $60! :hmm: Not fair.

It's really exciting to see such a big push for new stuff! Looks like I'll have to go on a bit of a hunt myself. Thanks for all the info and pictures, prancingstag!

Someone over at FB posted a huge shelf-ful of merch from Big W on one of the pony pages, as well as this stuff, nothing at my local today, but I'll head over to Westfield tomoz... under the guise of looking for those bloody birds for my nieces... annoyingly, we actually want them, and can't find them here! Can't win, haha.

I do have a pic of the new dvd box set but haven't uploaded it yet, it's got a mix of previously released DVDs from seasons 1 & 2. It's called "Friends Forever" and contains 'Friendship Changes Everything', 'Parties & Pets', Friendship To The Rescue' and 'Helping Out Friends'.

I spotted the ty beanie babies at my local newsagent about 3 weeks ago. They had stacks. A week later the lot were gone!! Haven't checked my big w for the new stuff since the sale started tho. And some other plush have been found at the reject shop :)

Bumping this up with exciting news! Styling Size (zilla) RD and AJ have just popped up at KMart! :cheer: They've got a $25 price on them though, so I would wait until Target or TRU get them in, the first wave of zillas only costs $20 everywhere else. They come with a comb, one marker and some Design-a-Pony style sticker sheets.

Rainbow Rocks AJ and Rarity basic dolls have finally popped up at my local TRU. Other items like the hairstyling/jewellery kits, DJ Pon-3's car (still sans doll), Rainbow fashion style PP and RD, and DaP Cadence are all at TRU now as well.

And finally, I saw the 5" rainbowfied Funrise plushies at The Reject Shop. I had a dig around in the basket but all they had was the mane six.

Ahhhh the Zillas! I have an RD already but she's got a misprinted eye, I'm really tempted to buy a replacement and customise the other :P

Just in case anyone is searching...

Brisbane / Westfield Garden City
Reject Shop : had an entire box of rainbowfied funrise with all main 6
Kmart : Had AJ & RD Zillas (3 each), as well as tonnes of FS Rarity
Target: Full of the Pop Ponies
Big W: FS Pinkie & RD

Ehhh I can't remember anything else, I didn't buy anything either.
Keeping my wonky eyed RD because they all have slightly wonky eyes and buying a replacement for $25 ain't worth it... maybe if they go on sale :P

I've only seen the rainbow plushes at toyworld here so far - didn't get prices though - I'd have been waaay too tempted, and I had to buy hubby's anniversary present, haha! They have a large and medium size, again, was way to tempted to have a good solid look - I bought the minis from TRS all in one hit!

No sign of the snowglobe girls at kmart here (north brissy) yet, I also checked Australia Fair at the gold coast - not there either. I haven't been to target yet though... I was hoping Kmarts would have them cheaper, which it looks like they do.

Snowglobe girls in Tasmania! Also TY plushies and the not-quite-so-new-any-more G4zillas. Good to see things are moving along.

Snowglobe ponies found at Tuggeranong ACT but not at Belconnen ACT on the weekend.
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a woman in possession of disposable income, must be in want of a pony.
