Can't find any blind bags? Try the Girls' Toy aisle or the usual My Little Pony aisle. Also, they are sometimes stocked by the trading card section of stores.

Very useful post, thanks! I am hoping to get them locally since shipping to UK would be costly but this is useful for others and deserves the praise

[StarlightGaze]

I hope Hasbro gets the other waves in their shop. Toywiz is expensive.

Sold out right now though.

Hasbrotoyshop also still has Wave 1 in stock, I believe. They still have a listing for it, at least, and they come back into stock periodically.

To those above: Yeah I just noticed. I'm adding to the list.

P.S. Find it weird that the first three posts have "star" in the name

[Dragonflitter]

Oh wow I totally didn't realize Waves 3 and 4 were in the US right now! None of my Walmarts or TRU have anything but Wave 1 still. Blah.

Dunno how long I will wait before I give in and order online...

My walmart was late with the blind bags...they decided to finish off wave 1 and then add wave 3...maybe yours is doing the same:P

Just as a warning- hasbrotoyshop does not guarantee that they will send you the wave of blind bags that you order.  I just ordered a set of the pet shop blind bags where the picture showed wave 6.  I received wave 5.  I contacted customer support and they basically told me too bad.  So basically, if you order from them you could receive any wave.  I'm probably going have to start a thread on this later- I'm pretty upset over the whole thing.

I'll add that as a note. Thank you^^

Haha you got a point there.

Man! I hope you do, that is terrible customer service! Usually Hasbro is sorta good about making up to customers who complain... to just tell you the equivalent of 'too bad' is unbelievable! >.<

Howdy,

I've been waiting for the FS Applejack to get rereleased and in the meantime I want to start collecting the blind bags, so are they especially hard to collect? I'm a bit excited and delighted at the idea of having 100+ mini ponies on my entertainment center. To my knowledge, there are 5 series and a few boxed sets out there, any collecting tips would be appreciated.

Are there US retailers(Michigan specifically) that are good at replenishing them, and any drug stores, grocery stores, or unusual retailers that stock them?

Thanks MP for your info, I'll use toywiz as a last resort because $60 for a box is sort of counter intuitive for cheap toys. Then again I've probably paid double that for a set of gashapons, so I'm not neccessarily above settling for the hose.

For store retailers out there, Walmart usually has them. Toys R Us also has them (even express TRU). Target SOMETIMES has them. If they are not in the pony aisle, then they are with the trading cards (same goes for any other retailer). I heard one person saw them at Walgreens too. This is for the blind bags, though...good luck on your FS Applejack^_^

Thank you for your reply, Walgreens' seem to have good stuff compared to Rite Aid/CVS. It'll be fun to take my chickenscratch list around town tomorrow!
