Title: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: Twilight Pink on May 18, 2013, 08:24:48 AM
I want this pony really bad!  :cry: but I went to my most reliable source of ponies (Super Target) to see if they had her, and she wasn't there!   :( only the newest alicorn 2 pack with Twilight Sparkle / Applejack and Cadance / Rainbow Dash (vice versa). I want to know has anybody seen Sunset Shimmer in stores? If so, which store? (In Texas would be nice, but anywhere else is welcome too). I just wanna make sure its just my home state being lame when it comes to getting new ponies in  :mad:
P.S. Although I could buy her loose from Ebay, I prefer to have the backcard story along with her, plus I don't wish to spend $15 on a G4 pony that's out already while I can just pay around $5 :/
Anyways, PLEASE lemme know if Sunset Shimmer has been spotted in stores!

She isn't released yet - she's been found on a few sites like Taobao and eBay though.

I got mine on the Hasbro website.  I have not seen them in the stores yet either.  I did pick up an extra one in case it is a limited release.  Hold out a bit longer.  Maybe we can work something out later if not.  I miss SuperTarget. We had them in San Antonio when I lived there but Ohio doesn't.

I am having the problem of my Target not getting the two new princess sets.  That's what I want.

I got mine on Hasbro's site too.  I just checked though and it seems she out of stock now  :(

I got one from Hannaliten here MiB for $8. Have not seen one in stores and got sick of waiting for Hasbro's toy to restock.

I saw a video of a kid and her mom looking for dolls, and they found Sunset Shimmer in New Jersey.

I heard about Sunset Shimmer being sold in Toys R Us in Florida,so maybe she's at a TRU near you? If not,she's on Hasbro's Toy Shop but is currently out of stock,not sure how long they take to restock though.

I got mine from bigbadtoystore.com They were only selling in the 4 pack, but reasonable price per pony ($19.99 total for all 4). It says They are pre-order, but mine shipped and was to me within a week.

I got mine from my local TRU (central Texas).  But I wouldn't worry.  If your area is like my area, they will show up at Walmart/Target a little later than they will elsewhere and then next thing you know they will be everywhere.
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: Sakuyamon on May 18, 2013, 10:09:43 AM
I am going to get a few of them through Hasbros site.
I agree with you Sunset is a must have pony, she looks so cute^^

Just ordered mine from Hasbro a few days ago also. Glad I did if she's out of stock already. :accomplished:

I've heard about people finding her at TRU but I haven't seen her yet.

Post by: TrixieStix on May 18, 2013, 10:55:23 AM
Nothing here yet that I've seen.....been checking my targets and nada so went to TRU yesterday on my errand route and nada either. No one has stocked the masked ponies yet and and the previous wave is just sittin on the shelf because they aren't getting purchased  :|

Post by: ApertureScience on May 18, 2013, 10:57:22 AM
I found her at Toys R Us in Tuscaloosa.  I got the two that were there but I don't think they've ever restocked her.  I also checked the Toys R Us here but no luck.  It's rather weird...

Post by: Wardah on May 18, 2013, 11:47:35 AM
Walmart and Target are doing inventory right now so they are only ordering what is necessary. As soon as they are done the stores should be loaded with ponies.
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: hathorcat on May 18, 2013, 02:13:48 PM
It could be your local stores have simply not reached her wave of playful pony as yet. What type of singles are available in your store? That will tell you whether she is either been in stock and sold or if your story hasnt carried her yet.
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: MLPDad on May 18, 2013, 04:13:53 PM
Just found her at Kmart. Harlem and Irving Park rd by the HIP in Illinois. They had two of her left and a bunch of Rarity/Rainbow/Pinkie.
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: gabumon on May 18, 2013, 08:39:45 PM
I got lucky and found her on eBay for $4! Though based on the shipping speed... I might see her in stores first! XD

I have not seen her.  I know I will but I've turned impatient!   :cry:

My TRU has her, they seem to get almost everything before my other stores I look for ponies in.
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: sleepyowl on May 18, 2013, 09:40:44 PM
I found mine a TRU too. It seems that's where most people are finding her right now.

Nothing new in Broward County, FL yet. :/  (BREVARD County?  That's only a few hours away!  What gives, local toy stores?  I want my ponies and monsters already.)

Post by: josiekat on May 20, 2013, 05:14:32 AM
Haven't seen her yet in upstate NY. Though, I haven't checked out out TrU lately, so I guess there is a small chance she's around. lol
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: sleepyowl on May 21, 2013, 11:04:11 AM
I went to TRU today and while they didn't have Sunset Shimmer, they had the other mask ponies.

That would kill me. lol.  I'm sure they will get more soon.


My Tru still has their buy one get 40% off the other sale going.  I think they're just trying to get rid of the old stock before putting out the new.

My Target is empty of ponies.   :(

Walmart is still fully stocked with the last wave, so I don't see them putting anything new out soon. 
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: singpony on May 23, 2013, 02:56:51 AM
She's out in Singapore since early May, and she is a regular retail release that is NOT exclusive to TRU or any specific store here :)

The wave 2 Princess 2-packs with Alicorn Twilight Sparkle and Princess Cadence are also available here, though I think the dark pink on Princess Cadence makes her look very sunburnt or seem that she plasticized already  :P
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: Dludnerad on May 23, 2013, 04:13:58 AM
Sunset Shimmer? I haven't even seen Sunny Rays on the toy store shelves here.
Had to buy them from ebay.
I think they skipped a wave because the new double packs are availabe here...

But no masked ponies yet.

Were those strange rainbow tinsel versions of the mane six originally meant to be the ones with the masks?
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???

that's good to hear, because when I asked my Kmart about the empty pegs (have been empty for months) they said "Oh, those are discontinued."   :blink:  But then again their labels (on the pegs) said "MY LITTLE PONT".  So yeah, they should be discontinued!

I haven't found any masked ponies yet, stores here are still mostly on wave 1 of the "crystal empire" singles (tinsel hair and accessory) with a few on wave 2.

Seen her at TRU and CVS. I picked up my own at TRU, definitely one of my favorite G4s!

I'm considering grabbing some for Arena members, just pay retail and shipping.
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: StoryDreamer on June 10, 2013, 05:07:22 PM
I checked Target over and over and couldn't find her, so I gave up and bought her here!

I might have one drifting through the mail right now. She should be here already and I can't wait >.<
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: scarletjul on June 10, 2013, 07:24:43 PM
Finally found her (and all the masquerade ponies) at the TRU outlet at the mall on Friday!  :)

Surprised me; they were much better stocked than any Target I've been to in forever; they also had the castle, the favorites collection (with NMM,) and 2 waves of blind bags.
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: TrixieStix on June 10, 2013, 07:58:58 PM
Literally just bought her from TRU across town! Yaaaaaay! Try had two plus the other masked ponies

I was going to ask that too. I haven't seen her around my area yet (London Ontario). They seem to be stuck on the crystal empire mane 6 around here :(

I've only ever seen them at TRU, and rarely at that.  BTW, I have two MOC for sale for $10 each, in case anyone's interested.

She's so pretty! Her face really is noticeably rounder than my other ponies.

Apologies if this is 'old news', but she's out in the UK! I found mine at John Lewis, and I heard some people found her at Forbidden Planet, too.

She's so gorgeous :heart: I love those eyes, they're so beautiful.

Ya, we can all thank Meghan for that :/ (since she's the writer of Equestria Girls)  *sigh* BTW, I already found her at TRU :)

Just picked her up at TRU, beware though I saw a bunch at a different TRU and there was flaw on her back right above the cutie mark, didn't get a pic but all them had it.  The one I just found today was clean, so have a close look before you buy.

Also used the 20% off coupon so it was 5 something rather than 6.99.

Post by: michelle53 on June 15, 2013, 06:53:52 PM
I saw her at TRU in Salem New Hampshire this morning.  It's the first time I've seen her in stores, so I'm imagining she will be heavily distributed when Equestria Girls comes to theaters. 

Let me know of you still need her.

No Sunset Shimmer here in Mid-Michigan yet but I have been looking.  Also no sign of Funrise Rarity (except the small one) or Funrise Applejack.  We only just recently got Princess Twilight Sparkle and Princess Cadance 2-packs and design-a-pony Princess Luna.
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: YellowCat on June 16, 2013, 11:10:55 AM
Nothing here yet on the west side of Michigan either.  I'm getting sick of waiting, but I'm hoping Target will have her in whenever they finish inventory.  The toy dept. is so empty right now except for seasonal summer toys and it seems the same few ponies (brushable Pinkie, Fluttershy and Twilight and the styling princesses) have been on the pegs for months.  Heck there's even shelves in the toy section that are empty and have nothing on them and no labels for product.
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: RainbowRay on June 16, 2013, 06:10:33 PM
She's definitely popping up in the UK now! I got mine at Smyths, also seen her in John Lewis and Forbidden Planet as mentioned before. Still not seen her in Toys R Us though.

She isn't released yet - she's been found on a few sites like Taobao and eBay though.

Yes she's released. I got her in Bellevue, WA Toys'R'Us. They jacked up the price though. Single ponies used to be $5 and now they want $6.30. It's like daylight robbery!!!! In fact prices for everything went up, except the NIghtmare Moon special pack. Ironically, price went down for that one from $48 to $45. I should have bought the mini Cottonbelle hard-face plushie when it was only $14, now it's more like $16.

Hopefully my Walmart will get her soon. I've been looking for her as well as the Princess Twilight 2 pack, but I haven't found either at Target or Walmart. I hate not having a close TRU anymore, but I guess the good part is I'm not tempted to go there and spend more instead of waiting to find things at Target or Walmart for much cheaper.

Good for you. Not everyone is that lucky to have found her yet. I still haven't found her, and judging from how high she's selling for on eBay at the moment, I'm sure others are having trouble finding her as well.

I say no matter whether you have found her or EQG yet or not...I would not worry too much about it yet. Both of them are mass market items with an incredibly wide release and I am sure one or more of your local stores will carry them soon enough. Or if you are stuck, post in wanted and I am sure you will find an Arena member happy enough to help you out.

Not luck, just strategy. I've got SS EG doll, but I had them pull it from the backroom [at Target] for me. They aren't being stocked on shelves until the reset.
They were actually nice enough to do that?  :shocked: I don't think mines will do that  >_<
I just told them that their scanner said there were some in the back, but there were none on the shelf.
As in UPC code scanner? :o

At Target, they have scanners that you can type in their DPCI and see if they are in the backroom. The DPCI for the 2-pack is 086-02-1787.

If were talking about the pony-
I was able to pick up 2 about a week ago.  I missed her the first time I saw her so this time I made sure to pick her up.

Post Merge: July 15, 2013, 05:17:14 AM

Nothing here yet on the west side of Michigan either.  I'm getting sick of waiting, but I'm hoping Target will have her in whenever they finish inventory.  The toy dept. is so empty right now except for seasonal summer toys and it seems the same few ponies (brushable Pinkie, Fluttershy and Twilight and the styling princesses) have been on the pegs for months.  Heck there's even shelves in the toy section that are empty and have nothing on them and no labels for product.

I was able to find her at two different stores. 
Previously I've seen her at ToysRus.  If you need locations let me know.

We recently got all of the masquerade ponies in our store except AJ and Fluttershy. Plenty of Sunset Shimmer!


Speaking of her, has anypony else seen this possible unreleased Sunset Shimmer variant yet? A friend of mine found this picture! This gal is soooo beautiful! I cant really tell if she is a fashion style or playful size.

I'm pretty sure that's a playful size, but boy is she nice! I hope it's for real and not a custom. The way the flames are the same on both the front and back legs (and don't seem to be on the non-display side, like the cutie mark) makes me want to hope it's for real. I'm sure if she is, she'll be sold in a set since they've already released her plain single. Hmmm....

Thanks for showing us!

Post by: Lightning Twirl on July 15, 2013, 08:51:56 AM
Thank you, and no problem! I noticed too that her flames were only on her cutie mark display side! I really think she is going to be a special release! Her flames look perfect, custom or not I would love to have one! I do hope that there will more available because Im not finding her on TB. Dang, she sold out that quick? =P

I have her, the original release of her. Love her to death, I tried so hard to get her. Bought her off Amazon, they lost my package. Looked for her in all the local stores with ponies, not there. Finally on a trip to Washington I managed to find her and the new neon wave of blind bags and snapped them up. xD Funny how things work.

I LOVE that version with the flaming fade, but the sparkley makeup really sets it off for me. Totally would've bought another one just for the fade, but I don't like makeup on ponies...
Title: Re: Have Anypony Seen Sunset Shimmer???
Post by: BlueyBirdy on July 15, 2013, 04:54:24 PM
Just bought her today at ASDA in Southgate for £3.50. :) She is really pretty. :inlove: There were two on the shelf and I bought one. Lots of Rarity left and one Rainbow Dash. Rarity is not popular in my area, poor thing!

That flame fade version is pretty neat! :biggrin: I'm running out of space but I may get her depending on how she's released. :P

I saw this purple-tinselled version of her on Taobao. This could be a test run like the multi-coloured tinselled Applejacks we saw a while back.

Well...its now been confirmed that the next wave of Playful ponies...the set coming with AJ and Fluttershy and their little masks...

Yup...you guessed it...its got Sunset Shimmer in it again. I guess she really is looking like a TS replacement - so she is really not going to be that hard to find even if she is not on your shelves now as soon as stores pick up the next wave she will be back.

The luchador mask line is Sunset Shimmer, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity.

Any Applejack, Fluttershy, or Twilight Sparkle you find will be older waves without masks. Unless they have masks and are something we haven't seen yet!

All 5 of "mane 6" minus Twilight Sparkle of course [as she is only coming in the larger size from now on]. So Wave 12 is Dash, Pinkie, Rarity and Sunset Shimmer again plus Applejack and Fluttershy added.

There were 2 of her and Pinkie with the mask. So there's another store you might want to check (meanwhile Hasbro's shop says she won't be avalable again til' October :wacko: ).

I also found this little book. It's pages are a type of laminated posterboard that's about 1/8" thick. Everything that should be pink on the front cover is a metallic dark pink. It just has short descriptions of the mane 6.
They also got in some MLP nail polish and false fingernail sets for kids.

unfortunately iv only seen Pinkie and RD from the masked pony line. i think it will be a while before Sunset hits our shores
Well, the box those came in had at least one Sunset Shimmer, so she already is in your stores (for at least a moment).

i doubt it. Canberra gets extremely weird shipments. my friend works at Big W and said once they got a shipment that was meant to be a bunch of different ponies but all it had in it were Twilights

That would be almost impossible considering how ponies are packaged! Perhaps he did not mean the brushable wave?

Wow that is unusual - someone must have specifically ordered a gang of Twilight Sparkles :P

She's showing up in my Area too. I've seen her at Target, Walmart and I think Toys R Us.  When I got her I tried to choose the nest Sunset Shimmer from the ones on the shelf, but I noticed all of them had minor flaws. The one I got has a very faint mark on her display side near the top of her display side hip.  Is anyone else finding Sunset Shimmers with these really faint marks?

Unfortunately that will happen in some assortments. I've not seen any flawed Sunsets at Target, but out of all of the Wysterias we got in, I nabbed the only one that didn't have a scuff or paint mistake in her eyes. Look out for a second shipment, that would be my suggestion.

My local wal mart has not gotten her in yet. But they are getting ready for the new shipment of toys. They got some new ponies in. I would think that she would start showing up in more places now :)

Also, I would assume that she'd start popping out more now that the Equestria Girls DVD was just released. I've seen the DVD on multiple occasions now so hopefully Sunset Shimmer will be making her way up here too! XD

I picked her up about two weeks ago at one of my local Dollar Generals. Last place I expected to find her; I've never seen her at Walmart or Target.

Anyway, if any of you looking for her have a Dollar General, or a Family Dollar, nearby, it might pay off to check there.

I travelled across the border to Niagara Falls, NY today and I finally found her!! Finally!! She was the last one in the Walmart I was in, too! I also got the last Wysteria from Target. I really wanted the Black Tie Pinkie but I can't justify 20 bucks for a pony when I don't even want the purse :/

I hope you guys find yours soon too!!

Just an FYI, the new Crystal ponies are coming in mixed with the Masquerade ones at TRU.  Not sure if they are shipping that way, BUT TRU numbering system has them as the same wave so they are mixed together on the pegs.  Found em at both TRU and Target.

What do you mean by "the new Crystal ponies"? Do you mean "new stock of the old Wave 10 crystal ponies (http://cat352.wix.com/mlparena#!playful---wave-6-to-/cdp1)"? I haven't seen anything about any new crystal ponies being in the works (Wave 12 (http://cat352.wix.com/mlparena#!playful---wave-11-to-12/cyqf) is supposed to be more masked ponies).
And what "TRU number system"? I thought they just stuck them all on the peg together regardless of what wave they were.

I caved and bought the last one in Sheffield's John Lewis yesterday. :P  But, her hair is odd...the tail hair is dry and unmanageable right out of the package and the red in the tail actually looks a different colour to the red in the mane, particularly when wet.  I've tried intensive conditioners, leave-in sprays, hot and cold water but it's still just sort of...flopping there straw-like.  Anyone else have an issue?  If so, how did you solve it?

I saw Sunset Shimmer at my Wal-Mart a few weeks ago along with all the other Masquerade ponies :) There were 3 of them and I bought one - next time I went they were gone and haven't restocked yet.

FINALLY found her at a Super Target I don't usually visit on the way home from an appointment last week. My 3.5 year old and I both gasped when we saw her on the shelf, we'd pretty much given up on finding her in a store!

I grabbed one today at my local Walmart...and she had a big black mark on her face under the mask :(  Luckily it mostly came off with the magic eraser :)
