Title: Wave III Blindbags in U.S. Update 7/6 Antique Mall
Post by: TheBeatlesPkmnFan42 on July 05, 2012, 09:08:51 PM
I went to TRU today and was surprised to see that they had wave III of the blindbags. I didn't write the numbers down because I wasn't planning on getting blindbags, and even if I was, I would have expected Wave I or II. But, no, apparently they skipped Wave II in the U.S. altogether, which sucks for me (I wanted Blossomforth and Cheerilee from that wave for the most part).

Anyway, I had to look for 20 minutes for Lyra and Golden Harvest/Carrot Top, because I get the background ponies first and I wanted them the most. I found them by luck by looking through the tiny holes in the bag and feeling to see what mold it was.

TRU also had the new wedding Celestia, Spike, and Twilight set (pretty much the same as the Target one just with another package), and the new CMC set. They also had the bridesmaid ponies and the talking Cadance.

I also went to Wal-Mart but didn't get anything. They had the new Glimmer Wings and the single FS Celestia.

I'll post pictures of Lyra and Golden Harvest later.

Lol, I can just imagine you in the shop shaking each packet to try and discover who was in it.  My brother does that with Lego mini-figures.  Congrats :cheer:

Congrats! Do you mind me being nosey and asking which TRU you checked? I stopped by the one close to me today and they still had Wave 1 of the blind bags. I'm glad to hear they are in WA though! I hope to see them soon too!

It was in Puyallup, not Seattle. Sorry.

Today, I went to the Antique Mall and got 6 ponies.

G1s:
Applejack (short hair version) - Some dirt, will clean easily. Loose head, appears to have been taken off before. ($5)
Moondancer - Minor glitter loss, purple mark on her back right hoof. Tiny marks on face. ($5)
Baby Noddins - has tail rust and some marks on her body (2 for $5)
Starfower - Some dirt around her symbol. Other random, barely noticeable marks on her body. ($5)
Baby Sweetstuff - pindot mold on left ear, yellow mark on the back of her neck, yellow mark on her left and right sides, and on her right ear. Scuff mark near right symbol. ($8 paid half of the price last time, and the other half today)

G3:
Party Cake - Some scuff marks or paint (?) on her body. Not too bad. (2 for $5)

Overall, very good. So, Baby Noddins and Party Cake were $5 together, and would have been $3 each apart. I'll try to post pics later.

Yay for new blind bags! but yeah it is too bad they seem to be skipping...
