What a gorgeous outfit! I'm not a super big fan of the pearliscent skin on her and some of the others, but wow at all that stunning detail on her clothes @o@

I have that Applejack! But that's because I won the 4 set of Equestria girls archery set at the raffle in the fair (yayyyyyyyyyy).
They're seriously gorgeous! I was pretty meh on EQ dolls when they first came out but Rockin Hairstyle Fluttershy and Applejack won me over. Now I just have to find room for my new 4.

It's possible they won't be back in stores and they might only be online. I guess only time will tell. But here is the info that was posted.
"Today I bring to you an update from one of our verified sources at Target.
Target has officially ordered 31,280 Rosalina to be shipped to and sold by Target.com.
Jigglypuff orders have arrived at Target.com DC.
Rosalina should arrive within 2 weeks.
No ETA on when they will be sold.
Target is holding Marth, Wii Fit Trainer, Jigglypuff, and a Wave 4 restock (no Lucina / Robin) until Rosalina comes in at the earliest.
No orders for Pit yet."

Couple of pieces of news for US amiibo collectors thanks to the amiibo reddit:
Dark Pit is officially a Best Buy exclusive. He won't be available for preorder, only in store. He releases July 31st (which probably means all of the 5A amiibo will release that day?)
Also, Target is apparently having a Rosalina restock!!! I don't know if it'll be online or in store but someone that works at Target has stated that 30,000 have been ordered/sent to their distribution centers.

I actually agree. While glitter is a little ughhh DJ actually felt like she was worth $50 with all the crystals and the multiple light up functions. She's definately one you want to keep in box but still, I happily spent the money for her.
Chicken Pinkie however I wasn't even slightly tempted considering the $50 price tag. Had she been $25 or $30 I might have thought about it (because even though I don't really like her, I DO like her box/packaging) but in no way did I feel she was worth anywhere near $50.

She did say it. And between that, her father's appearance, and the fact that her dad can't drive well I thought it might be a clue that he could be Japanese. But she could just be a Japanese fan.. we just haven't seen any hint of that (manga, anime references, lack of getting to watch unrealistic tv, etc) from her that I've noticed. Whereas we've actually seen a lot of Japanese references from Ronaldo and a couple from Steven. So that's why me and my boyfriend thought her dad might be Japanese but it's all pretty vague evidence and we might be drawing links out of nothing.

Connie's Indian. Her last name is Maheswaran and the style of martial arts she's learning (and the outfit she's wearing) in Sworn to the Sword is a type from India. You can also see some photos in the background of her house in a few episodes that show some people wearing some Indian-style clothes.
Her mom is for sure Indian but me and my boyfriend were discussing the possibility that her father was Japanese. At at least one point in the show she says something Japanese before she starts eating. Looking at him I think he could be either Indian or Japanese, but it seems like something they wouldn't have randomly put in their for no reason. Speaking of cosplaying what you want to, I really really really want to cosplay as Greg Universe because he's my favorite. I actually had a really cool idea for a Rose/Greg fusion, so I'm going to do that even though it's been said in the show that it isn't possible. xp

It is a kids show, yes, but it's also sooo much more. The first handful of episodes seem just really cute and fun, but it quickly jumps into some really emotional stuff. All of it remains kid friendly but it's definately something that an adult audience can enjoy.
I also prefer Amethyst's original outfit.
Annnnd, I'm probably in the super minority but I've never really liked Connie. Like I never outright hated her.. but I guess I just never really enjoyed her storylines and felt her episodes were boring (like I would literally sigh when I realized it was a Connie ep). Sworn to the sword was good, but I'm not sure if that was because of Pearl or if she's finally going to win me over.

They used to be $25 but the last couple of years they've been $50. So probably $50.

Unless the price is pretty close to retail price, I personally would wait it out until we at least have confirmation as to whether Dark Pit and Palutena are going to be exclusives, available everywhere, or what not. Since they're coming out in July it shouldn't be that much longer before we get enough info for you to figure out your best options.

I've had friends tell me to watch the show for well.. over a year. But i was so burnt out on Cartoon Network shows I didn't like that I didn't even want to give it a chance. I finally gave it a chance a little over a week ago and ended up binge watching all of it in 3 or 4 days. I have a friend that cosplays Amethyst and is slowly working on Rose Quartz. I also want to cosplay but.. so far it'd be kind of obscure stuff. Either 'Island Adventure' Sadie, a genderbent Greg Universe, or a Greg/Rose fusion.

This morning I super lucked out and was able to get Pit from Ami ami (Japanese store I get all my sailor moon stuff from) for $14.64 after shipping!! I've been on the look out for him forever. That brings my personal collection to 2. Though once Palutena and the Yoshi's come out I'll hopefully be at 4. My boyfriend is the one with the BIG collection and the one I'm usually on the hunt for. The exclusives thing IS a total bummer. I could be wrong but I don't think any countries other than North America does store exclusives. I felt like at one point there was supposed to be another Rosalina release, but I think if she does get a second release she'll be like all the other SMB line and look super boring. I haven't heard any news on it since Mario Party released though so I don't know if they'll be officially doing her after all. Here is a pic of what she'd probably look like. http://nintendoeverything.com/wp-content/gallery/mario-party-10_3/map04.png

Yeah, in my opinion Best Buy has been the absolute WORST about their exclusives. T_T The only reason I was able to get a Meta Knight for my boyfriend is because I was able to trade an extra Rosalina for it but that even took a lot of jumping through hoops and offering to pay both sides of our shipping. And of course that was after spending hours in the snow sitting outside Best Buy on release day just to be told they didn't have any. Ughhh.
Like I said, they are apparently rereleasing it but it's pretty hit and miss where. So far no have restocked anywhere near me. (I've been keeping an eye on it since I have a few friends that would like him)
Makes me worry about Dark Pit because of the speculation he's going to be a Best Busy exclusive too.

Certain Best Buy's are FINALLY restocking Meta Knights so hopefully they'll be a little more available shortly, or at the very least, their prices will go down a smidge on ebay.
