I saw a pic of that on facebook. So cool!

[Teddy]

This is sooooooo cool!!!! I want one lol. Are there pictures of the others toys? And yes I would totally ask what they plan on doing with it after. If they have to send it back from where they got it or not. I sure hope they don't just dump it afterwords.

I just snapped a few:

Raphael! (My favorite of the TMNT!)

I'm very attempted to ask what they will do with the pony after, but I have a feeling they have saved these things from years past and won't want to part with them. Never hurts to ask though, right?

I tried to get a display cardboard Celestia from a local store (I begged and promised I wasn't going to sell it on eBay); they refused and insisted it had to go in the trash!

It depends. When they had the celestia canterlot display at target I asked three stores what they do with them and if their allowed to sell them or give them away. The first two where a no sorry we either have to send them back or trash them unfortunately. The last place was a no when talking to the manger but a nice young guy around my age who worked their overheard my conversation with the manager and said she pretty much has to tell customers that. And that him and another coworker who are collectors have asked to have marvel and other displays if they don't have to send them back and were given them. He said if I gave him my name and number he would try and save it for me since no other coworker has asked about it. Months later I heard from him saying they were going to reset and the display was mine if I still wanted it. I gave him a Starbucks gift card for being so nice and remembering me. I never bragged about getting it since I was kinda scarred it might get him in trouble.


Thank you so much Teddy!!! That is a really cool display! But poor Raphael, it's hard to see him in that bubble lol. I would totally ask if I were you. It never hurts to ask, and the worst they can say is no sorry right?

JCP let me have a g1 retro display they had, luckily. But I bet most are like that, will refuse to let people have it. Or maybe you need a friend in the store. I had one. lol

Yeah, bummer. I can usually get display bits from the Best Buy where I work... I usually grab little magnetic graphic strips and posters from video game releases, but maybe it's different from store to store.

Anyway, this is awesome. It'd be a shame to see it disappear forever after its display period is over though, she looks so nice. It'd be great to see her go into the hands of a collector.

My baby!

[Esbayne]

That's so cool! I hope someone gets her instead of her being trashed.

[daffodil101]

She's amazing!  I really hope they agree to let you have her Teddy!  It would be so so sad if she disappeared or got thrown away.  I'd love to see her next to a regular pony to get a sense of her size.  Also, she's in beautiful condition, don't you think?   

[Carrehz]

omg, she's beautiful!! And in such good condition! I hope they don't throw her out when they're done with her

No one seems to have mentioned the obvious mistake here: G1 Melody was released in the 90s -- not technically appropriate for an 80s display! Teddy -- maybe you should nerd out and tell them that when you ask for it, just so they know what's what.

Wait, are there two Melody's? I thought Melody was the green peg in Firefly's pose.

That's Medley.

[lunar_scythe]

Medley is the green peg, she was released all over; Melody is a UK/Euro only pony, she's also in the My Little Pony Tales cartoon.

Touché! They kind of failed at her body color too of course, but you know. Technicalities! I'd still love to have her!

[JazzMatazz]

Really cool!
