35th Anniversary Collectors Pony's - Part 2!

[tailrustedtealeaf]

Not sure if everyone is familiar with the restaurant Cracker Barrel, but I had dinner there last night and they carry the basic fun ponies. They had the first set of rainbow ponies, these were the non-scented version. So if people are looking for the remakes of G1 and can't find them at Target, Cracker Barrel may be another option for you.

That's really funny to me.  I remember they had an exclusive webkinz back then, at least I have an excuse to go now.

Question to US people who have found the 2nd set of Rainbows.

Currently deboxing Tickle.

She has a number on her plastic bubble? 35276. This doesn't seem to match the one on the barcode or the one stamped into her box which are 35250 and 33728ZD respectively. Is this the same for Flutterbye? I am wondering if it has any relevance or is just something for manufacturing and should be ignored? I haven't seen this on a plastic inlay before for the earlier retros (and uni and peg set isn't here yet so I dunno if this is just standard now)

I also saw them at Cracker Barrel today. They were $13 each. My Cracker Barrel didn't have Moonstone though.

They also had the strawberry shortcake stuff so Cracker Barrel must be buying from basic fun and carrying their products. CB has a lot of cool stuff in their store.

CB also seems to have Nebulous Stars items. I haven't seen that stuff anywhere else outside of maybe Amazon. But the one I was in last night only had one item. I really like the Nebulous Stars artwork. It's mostly artsy/crafty stuff for girls but it's really pretty and I like artsy/crafty stuff

Oh that artsy stuff is very pretty.  I like it.

I wish there was a Cracker Barrel closer to me.  It's not too bad a drive but I'm not excited by the food. It's so heavy and rich.

Well done JL, correcting the spelling xD.
Although it still should be Grooming Parlour but eh, whatever.

I tried putting in the code from my receipt into the JL site last night to see if the other rainbows showed up but they didn't. Weirdly though if you put My Little Pony in you get Sunlight and nobody else. I wonder if she is a placeholder for all rainbow ponies or they just have an army of Sunlights nobody bought that they're trying to sell off...?

JL is weird.

I'm glad JL has finally put them on the website. It means people like me who don't have anywhere but Argos in an immediately accessible area might be able to get them.

We've got Smyths and Entertainer but neither have ponies in stock. Hurrah for the internet!

[Taffeta]

So tired after this week (and just now ANOTHER fire alarm -.- seriously the brats that live here need a spanking) but still tempted to go check the local JL tomorrow on the random offchance of finding Flutterbye. You know, there's probably zero chance since the last time I went they didn't even have ponies, but you know...the urge is real...

Really want to know if and when other people spot them too because I want to know that it wasn't just a fluke yesterday and they really are going to come out here properly now.

@aria_elwen - Entertainer have the CP set and I think the parlour on their website too. If you have one of those nearby you can probably order to collect in store...?

And there's always Amazon that has the CP set and the 1st wave rainbows and the parlour as well now. (But no Y3 Rainbows. I just checked )

I found the 2nd Wave Rainbows in Texas!  Link to video in my sig.

Oh!!! I was going to check my Target this weekend anyway just in case but this makes things a bit more encouraging! Last time I got a retro, I didn't expect to find Moonstone, which I did, but I especially didn't expect the Pretty Parlor to be there. Fingers crossed they'll surprise me again!

[tailrustedtealeaf]

Was lucky enough to find the 2nd set of Rainbows at my 2nd-nearest Target! I noticed an extra Tickle on the shelf, so I'm assuming she's one of the extra 2 ponies to fill the box of 6. I wonder who the other extra is?

[Ponyfan]

I checked 2 Targets today and only found Collector Ponies and Pretty Parlor/Peachy sets. I'm beginning to think my Targets might not stock the 2nd set of Rainbows or the Earth ponies.

Sunset, great video (again) I can't wait for them to reach my part of the UK *taps foot impatiently*
