I do not like those DVDs. They'd be fine if they were tucked away in the back and the box just mentions DVD included! But it's really stupid to have them cover up the pony.
I was looking at the pics of the new ponies coming out soon and one (Sunny something?) seemed like she might be cute, but I couldn't even see her!

i agree xD why cant the darn CD be in the back? there is a sticker why does it need to be so obvious xD
most of ours seem the be the applebuck episode. -_-
also I know this series/wave whatever you call it, when it first came out in this area it did not have the cd in it, I bought Applejack when I first saw it (thankfully)  because NOW i cant find her without the cd, however i didnt see any other ponies but the main 6 back when I first saw the luggage set.

sadly xD I went to get her today and they didnt have any left, ill keep checking

We don't have them here in the UK. What region are those DVDs? I'm supposing they're all Region 1 (US) or 4 (Aus), but I would actually quite enjoy it if we had them across the pond..

The DVDs are all region 1...thats why the "with DVD" ponies are exclusive to the US right now...

Uggh I hate them too! They remind me of those stupid AOL CD ROMs that came with everything back in the 90's/early 00's. Have you seen the sculptures and whatnot people made out of those? I bet we could pool all our MLP DVD's and build an orphanage out of them or something. Now that would get Hasbro to stop :P Too bad I'm keeping my G4's MIB or I'd seriously consider collecting them and making something out of them to show how wasteful and useless they are.

They do seem nice when you get the first one. But they package every pony in a wave with the exact same DVD. So when you get your 10th pony covered up with the same darn DVD you really start hating them :P

Whilst the UK don't have the DVDs, I'll admit, it would drive me insane to keep finding them attached at the front of the pony all the time. I'd like to get one eventually, but only for completion sake :P

I've purchased Cherry Pie without the DVD in the UK. They had a whole load in stock, though they'd remodelled the MLP section at the time.

She is and will be available without a DVD covering her - you may need to track her down outside the US however as when she shows up in stores in Europe etc she wont have a DVD covering her - I dont think this Wave have been found in many places over here as yet [I only recall one person somewhere mentioning having found her] and you will be a little more expensive in purchasing her as ponies are always more expensive outside the US plus international shipping - but if you like your collection MIB then maybe its worth it!

Just dropping in to say that both new ponies have been found in Greece ;)

Greece and Poland always seem to be the first for new ponies in Euro and the UK last lol! Thank goodness the Arena is international otherwise we would never know the where and when of pony distribution

Lol - must just be me - I think the rest of Euro in general seems to get everything before we do in the UK...I do think you are one of the few people I have seen post to have found DR and CP in Europe...so maybe you are getting them first this time around!

Well, if it makes you feel any better I got the Fun At The Fair Set from someone in the UK ;) And I never saw it in stores here!
Of course now we have the CMC with Cheerilee, but still, I didn't know about it when the first G4 baby ponies were released ;)

I have to disagree with you, GERMANY gets everything pony the last.. well, except the BBs maybe. XD
But the FS Fluttershy and Twilight.. I pondered for MONTHS if I should order them from the UK before they popped up at a store close to me. (like.. 3 weeks or so ago). Still not available online in the german webshops I frequent.. :B

Maybe the lack of CDs in Canada has to do with the bilingual rule.  Everything has to be in french and english.  I think that's why we didn't get books with our moulded hair collector packs.

Annnnd.. You're right!

 Though I hate that they don't translate the names in french now in Quebec. Back in the days,we had G1 with french names (I never really checked for the other gens but I know that they don't even translate the logo now :S).
But again, packaging is expensive I guess. Bleh.

We do have french storybooks and crap but we never had the little DVDs because the serie wasn't translated yet in Canadian french.
