It surprises me that Hasbro wouldn't do another run of her if they were looking for profits. I mean they sold out at the fair, and at the comic con very very quickly then sold out online faster then I think even they anticipated. I know it would anger some people because it would decrease the value but honestly as a collector I don't do it for the value of my stuff. It's because they remind me of a happy carefree time of my life. At $20 a pony they could make a killing just making 500-1000 more of them.
i just ended up buying on on ebay for $60. it annoys me that i went to the orlando pony con, and came home without the exclusive.. now the toy shop is sold out. i just figure if they come available again. ill pop her back onto ebay..
I basically sent them back a message saying that there generic copy and pasted response did nothing to answer the problem with people getting glitches during checkout.
I hope the prices come down in the following weeks, for those of you who missed out. I'm sure the prices are about at their peek. Good luck!!
Sorry if I sound snarky, but it really isn't going to happen. The best you can hope for is a design change, or a brushable. But there is a reason they chose to do this pony for the cons, so I doubt that will happen too.
I did manage to buy one when she went on sale this afternoon because I wanted to snag her while I could to pass on to someone. I figured even if I wasn't buying her for me I should try and get one while I could to at least keep it in the arena community rather than a reseller getting it. She's already been promised a new home with an arena member who has been trying to get a hold of her for ages, so I feel great that I was able to help them out
She's an EXCLUSIVE! What part of that are people not grasping. They make these ponies as a treat for special events. They won't be re-run, or they wouldn't be exclusive any more. There is a very slim chance she may show up on shelves in Singapore or somewhere like that, but that kind of thing is never intentional on Hasbro's behalf. The exclusives ALWAYS sell out. If you think that they will do it because she's more popular than previous years ponies, look at other lines of exclusives. GI Joe and Transformers are ALWAYS as popular as this pony is this year, they NEVER re-run them.
