Title: Giant Chinese Pinkie TRU on Sale 18.74 NOW: Buy it?
Post by: WingsOfMasquerade on March 03, 2014, 09:15:35 PM
That giant size styling Pinkie Pie (I was not aware that she was bigger than regular styling ponies...but I have heard she is)

Is now on sale at TRU & website for 18.74, it's like 25% off or something I guess.
Is this as cheap as she'll go?
Should I buy her now?
If you have her, do you think she's worth the 20 bucks it'll work out to be w/tax?

It says "free in store pick up" and "Will ship to home"
But TRU shipping is usually really costly. Does in store pick up mean they like...just have them on the shelf right now? Cause if it is, I wouldn't bother to order on the website. I really want to see one of these things in person. Frankly she looks a little frightful in her item photo on the site.

But it could just be the angle.
I don't know what to do, but thought to share the news if nobody else saw the sale yet.

Try clicking the Select a store option next to the "free in store pickup" to see if any in your area even have her in stock - very few stores seem to have her right now.  I bought her online with some rewards money I had, and shipping was about $8.  I really wasn't sure what to think of her from the online photos, but I like her better in person than I thought I would.  If none of the stores near you have her in stock perhaps a few more photos will help you make up your mind:

That does sound like a good price. I also want to see her in person!

I would! She looks so much cuter in person. I snagged, squealed like a 3 year old and ran for the checkout. My 16 year old was not amused lol. Plenty of stock here in mySouth Florida TRU so maybe yours will have her in stock too :) IMO, this pony is a keeper!

Do you have a local store you could check out in order to see her in person?

Perhaps once you have seen her you will be able to decide for certain one way or the other?

That is a pretty good deal! Some of the regular sized FS ponies retailed for like 16-18 depending on what store they were in, and this Pinkie is much larger than those.

I saw it in person in store while on vacation...I didn't buy it. I got ready to but really the only thing I actually liked about it was the box...it's just a standard pinkie pie with a painted on red body suit and I just really didn't find it all that appealing.

I think if they'd put red in the hair and blinged it up a little more I might have gotten it, but to be honest she just looked kind of drab to me.
