The store still has that pony?!
« on: March 07, 2014, 04:48:53 PM »
Have you been pony shopping and found yourself surprised at the fact that a certain pony was still in stock?  Imagine my surprise at finding Wysteria at Target today!  I thought that Target had gotten rid of the Pinkie Pie Boutique line, but I guess not.  I had been on the fence on getting Wysteria before, and the time I thought about finally getting her, she was gone.  So, when I saw her today, I decided to finally go ahead and pick her up.   ^.^

If you any similar pony stories to tell, I would like to hear them.

For the longest time, my Meijer had the Glimmer Wings ponies and just recently sold out of them. I waited a little too long on them and missed out :(

I also found a K Mart that was selling the scooter RD and Twilight sets.

I found Diamond Rose in February of last year...at a super market  :P Most stores didn't even have Lyra and Trixie any more (they lasted all of about 2 weeks and didn't seem to ever be restocked  :cry: ) so boy was I shocked! And, I bought Glimmer Wings Ploomette a couple of months ago as she had been shelf-warming for about a year, poor gal  :lol:
Idly searching for: loose, good condition G4 Blossomforth, Starbeam Twinkle, Plumsweet. TTM Celestia doll's wings Within UK or EU only, please.

I found a wave 1 Rarity at Toys R Us last fall. She was in among all the masquerade singles. I was surprised! They also still have tooons of Zecoras.

My mom finds older wave ponies at... Dollar General? Family Dollar? One of those.

My Target is still selling Pinkie Pie's Boutique too! I bought a Wysteria there two weeks ago. I should probably get the car set before they clear them out to make way for Rainbow Power.

Probably about eight years ago, I was in Albertson's grocery shopping and found a G1 Merry Go Round board game on the shelf, still sealed.  Of course I picked it up to buy!  :lol:  It didn't come up in their system, so the slightly befuddled cashier decided to sell it to me for $1.  Still not sure how it ended up there -- maybe it was buried in the depths of the stock room? -- but I was a pretty happy camper!  I think it's still in my storage closet unopened, especially since I had the same game opened from my childhood.

I was at Walmart the other day and they had a Ponyville mermaid set and a styling size G3.5 Pinkie! I was shocked!

Yeah, the full Pinkie Pie's Boutique line still seems to be at Target... except for the EQG doll, whom I never once saw. ;_; The purse Pinkie is on clearance down to $12.99 or something, but that's still way too pricey for a single playful pony. And all the singles are from the masquerade line with Sunset, naturally.

(Oh, and half a million Spa Pony Sets, in both Target and Toys R Us. Reckon it'll be 2015 before Groovin' Hooves or Pony Lesson shows up.)

My Canadian TRU *just* got the Luna and Celestia FS 2 pack, and the canterlot castle with Starbeam twinkle and shine bright twilight.  They are on shelves now, lol.  That's a bit of a throwback.

Last year, I found G3 Crystal Princesses at a pharmacy store. I regret not picking them up, but at the time it wasn't that big of a deal to me. I don't think I realized just what I was dealing with. :lol:

My TrU here in Barrie still has those sets. There's also the 2 pack glittery FS Twi and RD that...just...sit.

The stores around here seem to clear out their old stock fairly quickly; so, I haven't seen anything all that old recently.  However, I was surprised to see a Shine Bright Rainbow Dash just last week.  The same store still had a couple of Glimmer Wings as well.

I snagged a Midnight Dreams from CVS last year. Ended up giving her away in a swap but I was shocked they had her!
