Title: SO what G4s are being elusive?
Post by: TexasGal on April 02, 2012, 05:18:17 PM
I was wondering who all was looking for who, seeing as some G4s are harder to find than others.  I have managed to find one Diamond Rose, and three Cherry Pie here in my small town, so that is kinda nice.  Who all are you looking for?

I heard that Blossomforth and Cupcake were a little harder to come by. I've got both, but I do remember it being a while before I got my hands on Blossomforth.

Diamond Rose and Cherry Pie! I am planning to go shopping to WalMart this weekend so maybe I will see them.

If all else fails, keep checking Hasbro Toy Shop! They're constantly sold out there too, but I'm sure the time will come when you can get in and order them. :D

Diamond Rose! I can't seem to find her anywhere. FS Applejack is really hard to find, but I already have one..

Thanks for letting me know! I will check it out if I don't see them
I have had no luck at finding them at any store around here.

I have tons of stores around here that carry MLPs but none of them have Diamond Rose, Cherry Pie, or FS Applejack. :(  Luckily I already have Applejack though.

Blossomforth and Cupcake. And they're the two G4s I want the most. xD

Blossomforth I haven't seen again, but I will keep my eyes peeled and let y'all know if I find them..  =]  I know how it feels to be looking for a pony and can't find it. 


Cupcake CVS has, I know for sure.  Sadly though, it's $10 for her.  >.<

Twinkleshine. I only once saw her in stores but she had damaged eye paint.
Never saw her again. : (

Fashion Style Applejack is nigh impossible to find.  I haven't seen Fashion Style Rarity in a while either.  I think any of the non-mane standard brushables are hard to track down too if you're after a certain one (they always have, in plenty, the ones you don't need!)  Also I've heard a lot of the story style playsets (example: Fun at the Fair)  never made it to store shelves.

FS Applejack and Rarity.
Cherry Pie and Diamond Rose..
Luggage Rarity without some sort of awful paint disaster on her or the pet. :(

None really.. I don't collect G4s but I have picked some up for other people so I know what's out, and they all seem to be plentiful around here.. regular ponies anyway. I don't know about FS or anything else.

I missed Lily Blossom and can't find her, or the two new unicorns.

Really?  You ought to come visit the Toys R Us in my city.  They can have 20 ponies on the shelf and 14 or so will be Twinkleshine.  I suppose it's helpful for making unicorn customs though.

Oh gosh yes, here in MA Twinkleshine is EVERYWHERE...her and Snowcatcher and no one else. It seems like it takes forever for a new wave to hit the stores, and once it does, you have to decide right away if you want it because if it's a non-mane six pony, they never send another wave of it. (I wonder if stores even get more than one shipment?). Cupcake and Lily Blossom and whatnot are long gone. >_<

FS Luna. *waits for one on ebay that isn't £40.*

FS Applejack. I saw her once and didn't pick her up because I was low on funds and I figured there'd always be more. HOW WRONG I WAS.


Finding anything that *isn't* the luggage main six is nigh on impossible for me right now. :/

This is very true...anything that isnt one of the main 6 with their little suitcases...nope...nothing...nada...just the same RD, PP and AJ everywhere I look...

I guess they sent all of the Diamond Rose and Cherry pies to canadian Wal-Marts :)

I wish they had the Target exclusives over here... Having to buy them on ebay sucks...
Title: Re: SO what G4s are being elusive?
Post by: Ice Crystal on April 03, 2012, 06:17:43 AM
Our local Target is littered with Diamond Roses and Cherry Pies! Guess it just depends on the store.

My FS Applejack was a lucky find. I should have picked up the other one they had when I got her seeing how rare she's become.
Title: Re: SO what G4s are being elusive?
Post by: BrightSide on April 03, 2012, 06:45:05 AM
Over here, most of them.. *cry*

Particularly Cupcake and Honeybuzz.. It's stupidly difficult to find any ponies in my area!
Title: Re: SO what G4s are being elusive?
Post by: Fezzy on April 03, 2012, 07:29:12 AM
everyone but the Mane six. I manged to get a lily blossom, and I saw a few feathermays, but other than that it's a great big stuff all.
Not that I've had the money for them anyway but shush :P

Yeah I have yet to see honey buzz and lily blossom...want them both. Haven't seen fs applejack yet, sadly.  I did find only one rarity with suitcase and she didn't appear to have any factory problems to me. =]

I just realized I've NEVER seen Applejack in any of the sets here. >_< Cupcake, Lily Blossom and a few others are virtually mission impossible to find :( But you fixed the Cupcake situation Tex :)

Fashion Style Twilight Sparkle.  I'm really tired of seeing Rainbow Dash.
Title: Re: SO what G4s are being elusive?
Post by: SweetScoops on April 03, 2012, 10:07:07 AM
I've had no problem to find any of them, both in stores and on internet :S But maybe I'm spoiled with the G4's...
My experience with the G1's is to be patient and wait for sometimes weeks or months to get the pony I seek.

I'm having trouble with the playsets. Found the school once when I was broke and never again since. And rarity 's carousel is eluding me. >.<

Post by: Quill on April 03, 2012, 01:36:26 PM
I've not seen a single Cherry Pie and Diamond Rose at any of my usual pony places. In fact, I've only ever seen one suitcase pony period (which was a Rainbow Dash). I'm dying for these new ponies.  :cry:

Fashion Style Twilight Sparkle.  I'm really tired of seeing Rainbow Dash.

This! I'm having the exact same problem. I have visited half a dozen different stores and all they ever have are a billion Rainbow Dashes and a couple of Pinkie Pies. I've never seen a single FS Twilight Sparkle. I neeeeed her.  :(

Lily Blossom is I think the only Playful Pony that I am missing. This late into the game, I don't think I'll be spotting her in stores anytime soon.
Title: Re: SO what G4s are being elusive?
Post by: oddish on April 03, 2012, 03:19:26 PM
I also missed out on Lily Blossom. Just hoping to get lucky and have her pop up somewhere. She's the only one I'm missing other than the new two.

My Target had plenty of Cherry Pies and Diamond Roses for a while but that was before I had got sucked into getting every G4 brushable and I didn't pick them up. Now that I want them they're nowhere to be found...
Title: Re: SO what G4s are being elusive?
Post by: TexasGal on April 06, 2012, 08:11:40 AM
Saw several today at Family Dollar that are not the mane six...I have had good luck finding some of the harder ones there.  I'm going back today to get the names...I know for sure one was Honeybuzz.

I didn't buy Lily Blossom when I had the chance.  I was also in te FS Applejack boat but I was RAOPK'd her last week.  ;)

I am having a hard time finding Cupcake, Blossomforth, Cherry Pie and Diamond Rose.
I have both Cupcake and Blossomforth.  My Blossomforth is nice, but my Cupcake has some sort of weird degraded plastic running along her bum and back, so I'd like another one.  I don't think she looked like this when I received her, so that's worrisome...
:(

I haven't seen Cherry Pie or Diamond Rose yet.  I have to pick out my ponies in person so their eyes aren't derped so I try to avoid buying online if at all possible.

It took me two months to find the blind bags. Actually more like 3.

Post by: StarDragon on April 06, 2012, 10:54:13 PM
I can tell you that I have not once seen a single Blossomforth in the stores in my area. I only got my one from a swap, and she's my favorite G4. :( I wanted extras to play with outside the box....
