This is an oldie but a goodie!
How much do ponies cost in your country?
Let's have a common pony comparison.
Basic Pinkie Pie - $9.99 NZD (http://www.thewarehouse.co.nz/red/catalog/product/My-Little-Pony-Figure-Assorted?SKU=1513157)
Princess Twilight Sparkle - $99.99 NZD (http://www.thewarehouse.co.nz/red/catalog/product/My-Little-Pony-Princess-Sparkle?SKU=1720666)
Show us how cheap or expensive they are in your home!

Oooh! This always makes me realise I have little to moan about - in the UK we seem to hover in the middle between the good prices of the US and the crazy prices of you guys.
Here a basic Pinkie would be £4.99 and the giant Twilight mostly retails at £39.99.
-
For the US a basic Pinkie would be $4.99 and the giant Twilight retails at $40.00 I am getting those prices from Walmart. :) The Giant Twilight Sparkle was a lot more originally at Toys R Us for $64.99.
-
Uh... what Giant Twilight? O.o By the way, here basic ponies are from 6 euros to 12, depending of the shop, but might have to check better
-
Australia isn't much better, a basic Pinkie would be $9-11 AUD and the giant talking PTS retailed originally for $99 AUD but she's come down around $80 AUD in most stores as time went by.
I found mine on sale half price at Target for only $40. Same price as the brand new styling size Rainbow Power PTS. :P
-
My local toy shop has the brushable singles at $5.99, but target and meijer are like $4.99 and Walmart is $4.98!
-
Basic ponies seem to be at 10,90€ currently here in Finland... It's higher than I remembered, then again everything is ridiculously expensive here.
-
I checked a catalogue from a store which has lower prices on ponies.
Basic pony: ≈ $10
Decorating pony: ≈$20
Set of 3 minis: ≈$12
So soft: ≈$35
Regular? EQG doll: ≈$28
Rainbow Rocks EQG Deluxe?: ≈$43
Someone is trying to sell blind bags for $7,5 per bag (http://www.ekupi.hr/Mlp-Poni-Vrecica-289127.aspx) + $3,5 for shipping :lol: (Divide by 5,5 to get price in US dollars)
EDIT: I totally forgot to mention that these are prices in Croatia :lol:
-
In Canada for those two:
Pinkie Pie - $5.99-6.99
Twilight Sparkle - $59.99

Toysrus website prices in the U.S.
That Giant Twilight SParkle WAS $65.99 (but on sale pretty fast for around $45 or so). Very recently she went on clearance for $24.99! http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=20323776&cp=&parentPage=search
Basic Pinkie is $5.49 regularly, and $4.19 on sale right now. http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11004800&cp=&parentPage=search
1 USD = 1.18 Kiwi Dollar
= .75 Euro
= .59 GBP!
No wonder I can't buy anything in the UK these days...
-
At meijer where I buy g4s, a basic pinkie pie is anywhere from 4-5$ and the huge princess twilight sparkle was 50$ if I recall

10.99 € for a basic Pinkie at the moment on TRU's website.
What Giant Twilight? We don't get any cool stuff here.
49.99 € for talking Princess Celestia though. Funnily it's "only" 36.99 € for Cadance. :blink:
This Rainbow Dash EQG (http://www.toysrus.fi/serier/my-little-pony/my-little-pony-equestria-girls-nukke-ja-asusteet-rainbow-dash?id=895363&vid=533461b) is now on clearence! Only 26.99 €, was 36,99!
Trixie Doll is now 24.99€, 50% off
And for a blindbag you'll need to pay 3.00 € at TRU, or if you think it's too cheap you can come to where I work at and pay 3.95€. That's about 5 USD.

Wow... :shocked: And I thought we had it bad here...

Things seem to be the worst for countries where the currency is devalued. RIght now the U.S. dollar seems pretty dang low, but I think the Finnish Markkah is low too right now?
I can't even begin to pretend to understand this finance stuff. When my wife and I went in to re-negotiate our mortgage rate, the financial lady started talking and my eyes immediately glazed over. At some point I glanced over at my wife and noticed the same expression and realized we were in trouble.
-
The USD isn't doing so hot right now, but ponies are still $5 USD at Walmart. They also had some really basic brushables around easter for $3 USD, but I think those are harder to find now.
The Equestria Girls doll + pony sets seem to hover about $21.99 USD, which still seems like a lot to me. Looking at other posts in this thread, I don't think I should complain though.

I know I shouldn't laugh but... :haha: This is so true. Made me giggle! Welcome to Finland...

Galactica, we have had Euro as currency since 2002. ;)
Yeah, Elwyn, sometimes I don't know wether to cry or just giggle hysterically when looking at our prices. :rolleyes:

The large Talking Princess Twilight Sparkle was first 70 euro's. But now 44. Regular brushables are now around 6-7 euros each.

In Poland, basic Pinkie Pie is 31,99 PLN (around $10) and big, talking Twilight Sparkle is 246,99 PLN (around $80). Big Cadance is 111 PLN ($34), and Equestria Girls dolls are between 100 - 150 PLN ($30 - $50).
I wonder why Twilight is worth so much more than Cadance? I always knew, that she is best princess, but still...
-
I was lucky to score giant Twilight on clearance at Meijers for $13.50:D She was $24.99 for awhile, and averaged about $34-$39.99 for a while at TRU. Cheapest are the $3 bagged ponies at target.
