The Entertainer:

Home Bargains:

No ponies at all in the toy section proper, not even any blind bags. Only MLP things I could find were the Egmont magazine, and this old Fluttershy in the arts and crafts section:

ASDA:
No ponies whatsoever in any of the ASDAs I've been into in the past few weeks - no section for them either so it's not just that they'd all sold out. they might've had some of the POP G1s left though, I didn't think to check.
Sainsburys:

So Smyths has pretty much the best selection, still not much more than the others though. I guess it makes sense a dedicated toy shop'd have more stock than the supermarkets, though ASDA and Tesco did usually have a decent selection of ponies in the G4 days.
