Oddity on Target's Website
« on: March 03, 2015, 09:01:36 PM »
So I was browsing for ponies on Target.com when I found a listing for a G3 Toola-Roola. As expected it's out of stock online(not that I had any doubts) but the "find a store" option is available. Boredom and curiosity got the better of me so I thought "Why not?" and I typed in my zipcode into the box. Apparently it's "in stock" at almost every single Target store within 100 miles. Right... 5 years into G4 and I'm sure they all still have a Toola-Roola sitting in the back storerooms. XD

I swear someone made this exact post a while ago. I had to look at the date a few times because you even worded it the same. :P

Lol. It says "In Stock" for all of my local stores as well!

I wish it were real, I'd love to have an opportunity to buy G3 ponies in stores!  :lol:

I agree.  Or, even go back in time and freeze time so I could save up enough points to get the giant mail order Frilly Frocks plush.

I had the opportunity to buy a couple (I was a young teen and/or jobless for most of G3) but I passed on them because I was more interested in other things at the time >: I totally could have used a little birthday money or asked for them as gifts but I didn't. I could kick myself for it now.

Order it...and get a main 4 G4 probably :P Knowing Hasbro they may have the same assortment codes as previous G3 waves.
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
Loa is my love god!
I love Loa more than PonyLady!

I could totally call about it and give them the item codes and give them the generic "your website said" excuse. XD There are also G4 Glimmer Wings still on the website as "in stores". Toola-Roola most likely won't be back there but maybe the Glimmer Wings are plausible. Who knows what certain Targets keep hidden in back. The things Walmart brings back out during their January clearance shocks me on occasion. My local Target isn't as fond of those huge new-years clearance dumps.

I hate it when that happens. :lol: Walgreens site still says they have the original release of the Rainbow Dash fashion style in stock everywhere too and those have definitely been gone a very long time. All that false hope.

Oh my gosh, this is so weird but I was browsing the internet on my phone (different from where I've ever viewed this website, forum, and the Target website) and an ad popped up for Target with different products and one of them was this listing of G3 Toola Roola.  :blink: lol

I found a ponyville set in a store last year.  One of the early sets too.  And it was in a big chain store, meijer.  Just one, still full price.  I already had it but I thought it was pretty neat to see it.
