oh it is probably the yellow and pink one.  She had a dress with the red p on it. I was just in shock to notice much of the details I think.   I will def take a picture I just did not have my camera with me.

I am guessing it had a price tag because someone brought it for the store and then put it on display to get people to come in.

I am not giving up on it though!    I had a friend with me who can speak a little Japanese.  Better than mine anyway and he was translating for me.  I did want to try negotiating but the guy seemed very firm that it was not for sale.  He told us the reason why but neither one of us could understand.

I want to see if I can get someone who can speak Japanese to come with me and try again.

So basically what the title says.  I am living in Japan and working as an alt (Assistant language teacher).  I am right by Tokyo.  There is this place called Broadway in Nakano where I hunt for ponies.    I have not been there for awhile so thought I would go today not expecting to find anything of course.

So after an hour of looking guess what I find behind a display case?   A takara pony!    In the package with all her accessories, the white one with the pink hair.  With a 2000 yen ($20) price tag.  So of course I started freaking out.  Basically jumping and screaming in the store.    I rush to tell the guy I want to buy it when he says its not for sale!  I tearfully ask him not for sale at all and he replies yes.

I feel like sobbing now.

Thanks so much for the replies everyone.   That is so much help and a lot of information.  I am probably going to have to write a lot of it down.   I was not really expectiong to find any g4s but I was hoping to find some G1s.   $50 for a Braided Beauty though  :shocked:

Ah I have been to Sunshine City but didn`t know they had toy stores. 

Heliodor I have been to Ikebukuro Animate.  So awesome!   Ikebukuro is just awesome in general.  I can try to find the guy too.  Anything you want me to say to him?

ochibawolf:  So cool you are going to love it!  Maybe we could meet up and go pony hunting XD

So I am going to try to find Nakano Broadway.   I have been in Japan for two months and I am still getting lost XD   

And why  thank you Kellyponyfeathers

I did take Japanese in college for a year but the language barrier is hard. But everyone has been really nice so far.

Yep, I am in Japan for the next three years on a working visa.  Pretty much living out my dream.   I am in Saitama city so I can basically get anywhere I want in Tokyo.  Anyway I am going through pony withdraw and I wanted to know if there were some good places to find ponies.   I really have on idea.

I did hear Nakano was a good place to start.  I think that was where someone found a baby Takara.   But I would love any help!  Thanks for looking!
