It all got to much for me and I bought them of EBay :blush: I have been desperate to get these since I first saw them.

I saw one!  In a Walmart - it was Fluttershy. She was mixed in with the headband ones - and I haven't seen any since. That was about a month ago, and they have done weekly restocks of headband ponies since then.



Where in Ontario? I haven't seen them yet in simcoe, Brantford or hamilton

I can't speak for Thunderwing, but I had a similar situation in a Scarborough Walmart (hi neighbour!). Found a random pearly Pinkie maybe a month or so ago, and then the last time I went she was gone and there was nothing else recent. I hardly step into Walmart but that specific store has not had a real pony section for like half a year; maybe fifteen pony/EQG toys out at a time mixed in with Zelfs, Tsums, and LPS, so I'm honestly surprised there WAS something new all of a sudden.

I need to check one of the better Walmarts near me to see if the pearly ponies are in, but they all have had skimpy pony sections lately so I'm thinking not.

Me too!  I found one Pearly Fluttershy at a Walmart in Ottawa.  I kept checking back, but the 3 walmarts near me have almost no ponies at all.  It's been 2 months and I haven't seen any brushables restocked there.  I also ordered them through ebay.  It's cheaper, even with shipping, then buying them in Canada, and it's too hard to get around to stores with the kids in tow.

I got all four in the GTA last week! I got the last starlight and coloratura. I've been frequenting walmarts for awhile and was happy to finally get them.

Whee, so many Southern Ontario members here.  :wave: (meeeeeet?)

I guess that means I shouldn't completely doubt my Walmarts if you claimed them in the GTA; I need to check mine out. I'm mostly waiting for Pretzel, but Coloratura is seriously tempting me now.


YES! we deffinately need an Ontario pony meet! Its surprising how many collectors there are here. I had wanted to host a picnic + trade a few years back on the farm but RL got in the way.  I`m located ~1hraway from Hamilton, Kit/Wat and London. 1.5hr to TO airport, 3hrs from Windsor, 2 hrs from Niagra.

I checked our big lots and no sign of them there.. however, they are clearing our their current toys and there was a huge gap in the toy aisle, plus they are starting to get their toys out for the holidays.. so maybe in the next week or so I'll see something new.. if not the pearlized ponies then at least some fakies XD

It is very tempting to buy a lot from eBay, but I already have all of wave 1 and my boyfriend and I were having fun hunting them down. I think for now I'll keep my fingers crossed for wave 2 and 3, because nothing would drive me more nuts than buying from eBay and getting eye-wonk ponies... :P

Wave 2 also in the UK! Sighted at ToysRUs at Brent Cross. Since I moved across London I've been exploring what toy stores I can get to from where I now live. I went looking for MH doll Whisp and came up with these by coincidence...

Brent Cross has Pretzel, Cherry Berry, Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle for £4.99 each. The cards are entirely English, so not EU cards. Marked with Hasbro UK on the back so proper UK release. I thought there was Applejack too but looking at the waves in Ariana's list I may be remembering that wrong. It may have been someone else...

No sign of any of the others. I haven't seen Wave 1 although I am assuming they're going to appear at Entertainer and I haven't done that trip yet.

A tip for anyone looking for these in a UK TRU -they were not with the main pony display but on the end of a bay instead with the pony logo over it.

Also saw a bunch of other ponies I hadn't seen before, going to post that in the coming soon thread.

As regards Wave 1 and Entertainer, by the way, the website isn't as helpful as Smyths etc in telling you what is in stock in what branch, but it is suspiciously saying that click and collect will be reading "in three days" for all the stores in the local area for back home AND here in London. So I suggest that everyone looking for Wave 1 maybe start looking in Entertainer from the middle of next week...

Just in case that's when they're due in on-shelf stock...

Because you know, that's better than paying delivery...

Edit to add: Re hair quality...horrible off the card. Washed and shampooed them through, brushed them and they are much better now. No glue in the hair but the ends are uneven and yeah, it needed the shampoo.

I'll have to keep an eye out in Europe, I'm going to be away for 5 weeks and am worried I might miss a wave, but if wave 2 is starting off in the UK, I might catch them while I'm there.

Still no sign here. I've only seen the 2nd wave of hairbow brushables in one store, and that was a single Twilight. I hope they get here eventually.

I finally got all of the non-main 6 in the mail yesterday from China. They took a while but many are they worth it. I'll post a pic when I get home.

I'm such a casual g4 person that I feel like if I don't see them in stores I won't worry about them. It's so nice to find them by surprise in stores, but I imagine that's a pain if you want all of them.

I'll also say that, while I don't buy mane 6, pearly Twilight is really pretty.

Here are mine. They are broken up into separate pics and it's a long story. I ended up getting three duplicates and that's why. Colortura ended up being photographed with two customs made by the talented Skeen. :)  I gave my three extras to a coworker at work for adopted daughter who is a huge older FiM fan.

Checked in my big lots and wasn't able to spot any.  They still had the headband version on Rainbow Dash.  Not sure when they will be getting new stock in.  I hope soon..
