Title: when was the last time you saw a G3 in store?
Post by: skywlshes on November 29, 2017, 08:35:36 AM
The last (MIB) G3 pony I've seen in store was Wysteria as the Crystal Bride a few months ago. The store, Rossy, was closing, and I guess they were just putting all of their old stuff on the tablets to make more money as possible. I already had her so I didn't get her. I'm curious. When was the last time you guys have seen a MIB G3 in store?  ^.^

I think it was one of the G3.5 sets either Rainbow Dash and her mom or the Starsong with the Magic Shoes DVD if merch counts Kmart had early G3 paper plates and birthday invitations for several years after G4 started.

I've seen G3 merch (Pinkie Pie pinata, for example) as recent as a few years ago. As for ponies themselves, I remember seeing G3.5s during my first year or so of collecting, because G4 was so new. I even bought a couple because I wanted to take advantage of them still being around. Managed to buy the normal Cheerilee, the skirt Sweetie Belle, and the RC Rainbow Dash plane brand new before G3.5s disappeared from stores completely. So this would have been 2011 I suppose, the year I got into MLP. Perhaps there were some still early 2012, but I can't remember.

A couple years back I found a G3.5 Pinkie Pie w/ Hairbrush on the shelves of... I wanna say Big W? (Coulda been Target or Kmart tho)
Seeing her alongside G4 was so weird, especially since they wanted more for her than a FS G4! If she'd been reduced I would have bought her I think.

I actually saw some G3 stickers in a $ store a couple years ago. Plus there's been a resurgence of G3, G3.5 and Newborn Cutie fakies. I even saw wingless Breezy fakies once.
