Title: Heads up everypony! Wave 5, CMC and SS Spike at TRU!
Post by: ladybrooklyn on January 25, 2012, 01:07:56 PM
I stopped by TRU today... and they had the Wave 5 "Mane 6" ponies on the shelf! :frolic:
 
I also spotted the CMC set, Celestia & Twilight... ANd the SS Rainbow Dash and Spike babies!
 
I didn't see Diamond Rose or Cherry Pie... but it's possible I got there too late... and they were gone. :(
 
But hey! New ponies at TRU at last! :good:

I was just there on Monday and their shelves were pretty bare... now I'm tempted to go back and check again. Maybe I'll force myself to wait until tomorrow....  >_<

Aie, I can't wait for baby Spike to come out over here! I'd love to see pics of him if anyone has any :)

Exciting! You might not have missed those ponies- we got the new "mane 6" at our 2 Walmarts here but not those two, so they might not have been there at all. then again, we have RD and Spike but not the CMC set...

Good to know! Going to TRU tonight, but only to see if they have blind bags at my local one yet. Someone said they spotted them there, and I'm still missing Minty.  :sad:
Walmart hasn't restocked the BBs since there's always the same 6 bags left. Should probably wander back there and see if Firecracker Burst is still there... Headcanon demands it.
Maybe I'll pick up Diamond Rose if I see her, but eh. I'm sorta losing interest in G4 toys lately.  :(

I don't expect Walmart to restock blindbags for at LEAST another week.... Especially given that one of the Targets that I first bought the CMC sets at only JUST restocked them... and that was easily 2 almost 3 weeks ago... ;)

I haven't seen Blindbags at TRU... I wonder where they'd have them stocked... with the ponies? Or near the checkout counters??

Bah! I ended up caving, and went to check TRU. Nothing pony-related had been restocked. boooo. :(

Okay, because  I am very much out of the loop when it comes to G4s -

SS Rainbow Dash and spike babies?
CMC?

And CMC refers to the "Cutie Mark Crusaders", aka Scootaloo, Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle... from Friendship is Magic. Ah! Here we go...

Someone mentioned that Cherry Pie and Diamond Rose are part of wave 6 so they may not be showing up. Can't wait for them, though. I probably won't be buying the luggage ones or anything else mentioned in the thread, though. :(  To be honest I'm not soft of the baby pony plushies. They kinda freak me out.

If they made the heads soft as well, they'd be so much better! But I probably won't be buying any of the mane 6 luggage things. :(
Also, went to TRU today and nothing new. They still had the stickers in stock, though. Even had g3 stickers~! But I am not forking over $5 for a pack of stickers. :/

Ah, thank you! I still haven't seen FIM, so I've seen clips of those three in some PMVs and I think a shirt on site somewhere *lol* So they are really making an actual baby spike!  Cute.

I checked my TRU today and it totally sucked, they had nothing but 4 singles - RD, Feathermay and a couple others, and like 5 SS Baby Pinkie Pies on an end cap. Not even an MLP section!!  :sad:

They've been found in Canadian TRU stores :) So far the only locations I know of are BC, Ontario, and Nova Scotia (I picked up the CMC set earlier in the week)
