That's not surprising. Some people are bashing BaB for not anticipating her popularity, and I think that's a little unfair. They probably had as many of these made as they possibly could.

I suspect she'll be back soon, and in greater numbers, just like Toothless was. :)

That is very unfair considering how long Zecora and Shining Armor have been around with out selling out.

If she was that popular, I'm sure she will be back.  It just might not be right away

I just saw on Facebook that Build a Bear is saying they are not planning on making any more Muffins at this time.  I hope everyone was able to get her.

From Facebook:  We’re so sorry but Muffins is sold out. The My Little Pony collection has been extremely popular, and unfortunately, no additional quantities for this Pony are planned at this time

Boy, i'm glad I got :muffin: when I did  :huh:

Pretty sad of BAB, they should know that she's a fan favorite thus should've produced an ample amount of her.

Poor planning...
Oh no!

Oh dear.

Their social media team has been wrong about these things before. Hoping that's the case here!

I hope they release more for those that weren't able to get her, but it sounds like they aren't planning to. I wonder how many Muffins BAB ponies they had made since she sold out so fast?

It is kind of odd considering how long they have had ponies like Zecora and Trixie.  But maybe that is the answer.  Maybe they feel that they over ordered on previous "fan favorites" and are now stuck with a lot of over stock.

Has anyone else noticed that Zecora's price has gone down to $27 from $35?  And not as a sale, they just dropped her price.  They are trying to get rid of her.

Aww thats bad to hear that they already wont produce any more Muffin Ponies! I try to understand why... I mean, the fans want her, they will PAY for her, why not bringing at least some more :/


I got mine a little while ago in a trade (thanks again to Itcheeee <3 <3) and shes still unstuffed. Im patiently waiting for November, when we can (hopefully) visit BaB to get her stuffed <3 For now shes hanging out (literally lol) with Zecora on the left and Pinkie Pie to the right with her head between their heads lol. Looks funny since you can only see her face poking out and nothing else :P Ghost Muffin :P

I went and got :muffin: this morning. My brother agreed to buy her as my x-mas present, so she's all wrapped up now. I can't wait to open her at Christmas! :biggrin:
Our BaB store had plenty of her and DJ, and even a lone Shining Armour. I half wish I'd gotten a few more when they were available, like Fluttershy, but Pinkie and Bubbles will suit me fine. ^.^

Awww man. I really hope Facebook is wrong. I've certainly had trouble before getting incorrect information from the people who handle their Facebook page. Surely they'll reconsider, since they've now seen that Muffins is more popular than some of their other "fan favorite" Ponies. I also hope there's still a chance she'll come back and be in stores everywhere, instead of just online for a lot of people.

That's interesting about Zecora's price dropping. Maybe I'll have to more strongly consider getting her. I think the higher price turned a lot of people off.

So, I ordered two ponies, one of which was Muffins, right before she went out of stock.  When I recieved my package in the mail this past week, I had one pony but was missing Muffins.  I called customer service and they did find my Muffins at the warehouse.  However, In The course of speaking to the representative she did say that Muffins had been discontinued.  I didn't think to ask her why at the time and there is a good chance that she wouldn't have known anyway.

Muffins and DJ still cost an arm and a leg even with the 2 for $35 sale because the exchange rate SUCKS right now, but they were worth it! I took them to BAB to get stuffed, and none of the staff had actually seen Muffins in person. The two girls I was talking to argued over who would get to stuff her. :lol:
