Title: Ponies Spotted! Walmart Exclusive TTM FS Celestia and Luna in Canada!
Post by: CottonTALE on July 17, 2014, 05:12:55 PM
So I was out at Walmart looking at housepaints with my mom as she is renovating her house, and I popped in at the pony aisle and saw both Celesta and and Luna on the shelves!

Thanks! they had 5 Lunas and 2 Celestas if I recall.

If anyone would like me to pick one up for them, I would be more than happy to! Just pay retail price and shipping.

Must buy both once I find them in person, thanks for the good news they are appearing in stores. Now if the dolls would show up too.

I left Canada barely a week ago this is rubbish :lol: I knew all the new stuff would hit after I left ahahaha. Also, only $18? Daaamn, that's a lot cheaper than they're gonna be here.

How are Canadian shipping rates to the UK? That or I'll be asking my friend super nicely ahaha.

please note! I moved them from the shelf they were on to get better lighting, so that is not their price!

Ah, did you? I can't read the text on that price :lol: How much were they?

I completely spaced and forgot to list down their retail price while I was there. I tried calling the walmart about half an hour ago to get a price check and they were closed for the night  >_<

I'll call first thing in the morning to get numbers for you folks.

Yay, finally an affordable whitelestia! Can't wait to get them.

I was going to say, $18 each is a total steal!

I might actually get someone else to pick these up for me as opposed to waiting for them to reach Australia, this time. I really like Celestia, and Luna's accessories are too awesome.

Hmm, I wonder if some acetone will take the markings off the wings. I would like a white Celestia, but those markings... :|

It should as long as it's the real acetone and not the acetone alternative gentle nail-polish remover.  I use 100% acetone and it works on the Design-A-Ponies.

:frolic: bought my Celestia today!! :cheer: she was $24.97 plus tax. There's one left I wouldn't mind grabbing for someone if they want :) she's part of the walmart exclusive Through the Door line (in case anyone didn't know). I'm going to attempt to take the lines and music notes off her wings without getting rid of the sparkles too much. I hope to get to that tonight.

Oh and since I don't keep accessories hers will be for sale/trade if anyone is interested :)

Thanks Starflower for the price :D the person I was on the phone with to get prices from was completely incompetent and said they were all sold out and hung up the phone.

Do you think there might be a chance of them coming to Asda in the Uk as it's a walmart company?

Honestly I have no idea....I'm in shock that us in Canada actually got them, and so fast!!

Did you get the Through the Door Sunset and Twilight?

Smyths carry part of the TTM line - I think we got the small Sunset Shimmer and Twilight brushies, and the FS Twilie. They already list the two FS princesses (at £20 each >.<) online, but as they never carried the TTM Twilight Sparkle EqG doll, I think it's unlikely they'll carry the Celestia and Luna dolls. Might be worth emailing them to ask if they'll stock them, though :)

Yup - so far in the UK we have got all of last year's exclusive lines - all the Through the Mirror releases and all the Pinkie's Boutique releases [dolls and ponies]. With them already showing the FS ponies, I think thats a good sign we will get the dolls as well.

How awesome they are showing up so quickly! And a good price considering how much white Celestia FS used to go to. I know a white FS was inevitable but its so nice to finally see her on shelves for people.
Title: Re: Ponies Spotted! Walmart Exclusive TTM FS Celestia and Luna in Canada!
Post by: Lady Starflower on July 18, 2014, 12:17:15 PM
Yes I agree...she was a long time coming so I'm so happy she's hitting shelves now :)

Oooh okay, they did get her :lol: It just doesn't say in the title so I didn't notice before!

Well I took Celestia's lines and notes off. The glitter is actually pretty resilant and stayed on pretty good. There's some spots where it came off a bit, mostly where the big notes were. Anyways here's some pics:

There's no glitter at the base of her wings so where the 3 purple lines meet you can really get in there with no worries.

Hope this helps a bit with everyone who was curious about taking the lines/notes off :)

Does anyone know how much it would cost to post a Celestia and Luna to Australia?
If someone could pick these two up for me I'd be super grateful but I've heard that posting from Canada to Australia is fairly expensive. (I'd want to keep the MIB)

Pretty please? ^.^

I'm going to be picking up both Whitelestia and Luna for Pyro (also in AUS), so I can see what I can do. Please PM me and we can flatten out the deets :3
