Title: Sweetie Drops and Holly Dash
Post by: DazzleKitty on January 03, 2015, 08:03:06 AM
I am just wondering if either of these has been spotted inside the USA yet? I am eager for some new G4 brushables!

I think Sweetie Drops is only popping up else where at the moment but I have seen a couple of FB posts having found Holly Dash but it seems to be limited right now. Hopefully other people can give you more accuracy.

I haven't seen or heard of either of them being found in stores in the US yet.
All I've heard about those two is that
Sweetie Drops was listed on Amazon recently
 http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ND0046Y/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=2MDCC6DQCJIPE&coliid=I2UCC3HF099SMJ
Her price seems high for being offered by Amazon though :/ (Honey Rays was listed the same time as well.)
Holly Dash was listed as "coming soon" on hasbrotoyshop for like 1/2 a day a couple weeks ago then disappeared since.
I hope they show in stores soon. I'm very eager for them too. I also want Diamond Mint.
I got tired of waiting for Octavia to show up and ordered her online recently. New ponies are taking too long!

Yeah, I agree. These new ponies are taking a while. It's been a dry spell for G4 for me and I am happy some new brushables are finally being made. That's why I am so eager for these to be found in my area.

We won't be getting both at the same time tho. Holly Dash is from the second Rainbow Power series while Sweetie Drops is from Cutie Mark Magic. I'm actually still a little worried they are planning on skipping the second series of Rainbow Power in the US and going straight to CMM.

Its probably not Hasbro skipping a wave...its retailers which will miss what is coming into distribution centres.

Out of curiosity if you have playful singles on shelves right now what wave are they?

Right now we have the tinsel hair Rainbowfied ones and a few of the mask ones. And also those cheap bagged ones.

I'm worried the port strike caused Hasbro to redirect all the TAF Rainbow Power singles to other countries and by the time they will send any new ones into the US they will all be Cutie Mark Magic ones. I'm also worried that's what happened with snowglobe Twily and Cadence and FS AJ and Daisy.

I asked the toy lady at Target about new ponies, and she said that they're getting new stock in this coming week and trying to replace the ponies they currently have.  Everything on her pony shelves was going to the clearance aisle to let in new things, so I'm crossing my fingers!

Unfortunately its more likely that because you still have playful singles on shelves they may wait out selling those before they stock more. Thats the main problem when a line has wave releases - for retailers they are the same product so why buy more if the shelves are still full of what they consider the same item. :( The US gets the bulk of the line so more to clear through before new waves hit; outside the US we tend to get smaller quantities to stores which means we have more chance of seeing all waves at some point.

Yeah but they have restocked several times since Holly Dash has been spotted outside the US. It's just each time they restocked it was with the same or sometimes even earlier ponies like they had to dig in the warehouse to find something to put on the shelves.

Post by: CupidStrikes on January 03, 2015, 03:48:13 PM
It sounds like someone over-ordered on the ponies  :( If they refuse to clearance them (and I've been in toy shops here that still have wedding and riding along singles because they are apparently refusing to reduce them to clear to order in more stock), then they may just sit there.
Title: Re: Sweetie Drops and Holly Dash
Post by: Stormness_1 on January 03, 2015, 04:27:26 PM
They never clearance here either - we still have FS Shiny and Cadence for $28! It's been sitting there for YEARS! The same rarity carousel sat there for 3 & 1/2 years before it got damaged and clearanced, for like 15% off. Really? MLP week got rid of all the tinsel brushables, but we still have masked ones and the first rainbow power wave junking the place up - if anyone is desperate for them (shipping is pricey, but I'm happy to decard), especially Cheerilee, let me know!

I hope the midwest gets Holly soon! I only collect the new characters, although I am making an exception for the ACTUAL rainbow haired Mane Six. And my Walmarts and Targets STILL have the tinsel hair and masked singles in....I haven't even seen the "snowglobe" ponies yet...

Post by: Twilight Pink on January 03, 2015, 10:05:26 PM
I'm still looking for them too :L if the US really is skipping the wave with Holly Dash then it's gonna be time for me to hit up ebay ._.

I've also seen no sign of FS Sunset Shimmer and Daisy Dreams and there has been NO news on FS Coco Pommel (maybe Hasbro or whoever pushes out the ponies decided to cancel her...which'll be a dang shame :/ )

And I have yet to see EQG doll+pony Octavia...

I believe Sunset and Coco are in the Cutie Mark Magic line, which comes after Rainbow Power. RP Applejack and Daisy Dreams should hit first, then CMM Sunset and Cadance, and then Coco sometime after. Cadance and Sunset have hit shelves early in some places but stock images have yet to be found for Coco, so she'll probably be a good while later.

Looks like we will need to get Holly Dash online. Now I'm just wondering where snowglobe Cadence and Twily fit into this.

So where has Holly Dash been seen? I'm in Canada, and it seems like the Rainbow Power TAF ponies only included RD, Pinkie, Fluttershy, and Cheerilee. I've never seen a Rarity or a Holly Dash :(

In a way it's kind of nostalgic to have a real live international exclusive again. Though it's weird that it happened to be the core line of playful pony brushables, who were shown off at the US toy fairs and everything.

I don't think it was planned that way. I'm sure Hasbro wanted them in stores but, whether it was from them being redirected because the strike or just not being ordered because they ordered too much of the tinsel wave or even a little of both, they didn't make it. I think we were supposed to have them in time for Christmas. I guess there is still a possibility they could show up somewhere like Big Lots or TJMaxx but the regular stores need to have Cutie Mark Magic on the shelves in time for season 5.

I don't think she really was supposed to be an International Exclusive. Kind of like the slumber set wasn't supposed to be international but it was limited in the US

As long as Holly Dash and FS Applejack end up on Amazon or even Hasbro Toy Shop eventually, I don't mind if they don't end up in stores. But I don't want to have to try and import them. :/

Catlein, I'm in toronto Canada and I found holly dash in Walmart on Sunday but there was only one. I bought her and now she's here with me!

Today at toystoystoys I found another single holly dash (purposefully?) hidden behind a monster high doll box under all the pony things in that section @-@ (I only noticed because I looked down!)

So where has Holly Dash been seen? I'm in Canada, and it seems like the Rainbow Power TAF ponies only included RD, Pinkie, Fluttershy, and Cheerilee. I've never seen a Rarity or a Holly Dash :(

Thats because Rarity and Holly Dash were the next wave after RD, PP, Cheerilee and Fluttershy. So in theory they should be on shelves after that wave clears. But because its a 2 character wave it seems to have been getting skipped due to older stock not clearing.

I'm in Canada, and while I was in another city helping my mom Christmas shop I saw and bought Holly dash but Sweetie drops wasn't there.

**Lady seashell**

Sweetie Drops is the next wave after the Holly Dash wave. So if you have Holly you should see the Sweetie Drops set next. :)

Oh, is Sweetie Drops currently HTF? I was in TRU the other day, and was like HEY! a brushable I don't have! And grabbed her. Left Skywishes (?) behind cos I didn't like her, but was very tempted by the mane six all cutied up. Also got Holly Dash way befire xmas, but I saw another recently, if I see her again i'll grab her.

I don't follow G4 or new products much, it was just a case of hey! I like dat pony! *grab*

I think its worth remembering as well that a lot of these waves have not as yet shown up with the 2 main toy wholesalers - so it could just be they are late to arrive.

I honestly think that would be a lot more attractive than a bunch of dots.... It would be like a G4 version of Sugarberry!

And oh man, that Sweetie Drops.... I hope her hair looks more like it's supposed to in-person. Online, she looks like a Rarity with lighter purple hair, instead of the pink-and-blue she's supposed to have.

Found Cheerilee ,Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie  basic size ponies, Neon hair and cutie marks all over, but no Holy Dash
I had a hard time to find a good one of each of them,there were maybe 4 of each at this store, but many had dirt and or paint issues :(
hopefully Holly Dash will show up soon, Is weird because  these are still "Rainbow Power" and there is already "Cutie Mark Magic" ponies out , AJ and Daisy Dreams FS  where are they ? hope they make it soon to stores in USA

Here we seem to be getting them in separate stores, so I'm still holding out hope. CCM is showing up in targets, but none in Big W's/kmarts, and the RP ponies are in Big W, with the snowglobes in target/kmart/tru.

I've been checking the Rainbow Power stuff just in case Holly Dash popped up. Nothing so far. >: Just CMM... My area hasn't gotten the new snow globe ponies, either. Has anyone seen Diamond mint/ Rarity or are those part of this weird lost waves, too?

Post by: Salli on January 10, 2015, 09:34:00 PM
On my quest for new dolls (no dice) I saw Sunny Rays at my Target!! There was only one of her and no sign of any other new brushables. Same ol' tinsel-hair mane 6. But I have to admit I am shocked that we actually got a thing! Here! (We are often so slow to get anything new). So don't loose hope for her. Also, she was behind a Fluttershy, so make sure you check all the ponies on the pegs.

If you were to find Holly Dash, I'm pretty sure you'd be the first person in the US to have spotted her.  No one here has found her yet, so I think it's highly unlikely that she's in any of our stores.  :(

I did grab all but Skywishes for the Cutie Mark Magic singles last night, though! They only had one of each of the others left, but about 5 Skywishes so I figured I'll get her later.

I don't know if this information is useful to anyone, but I figured I'd share it. I can buy wholesale in the US and I can see that in a case of 12 Cutie Mark Magic Wave 1 figures there is only 1 Sweetie Drops, so she'll be hard to find. I'm kind of surprised she's not going for more on ebay and Amazon and is about the same price as the other, more available, ones.
In Wave 2 there is only 1 Sunset Shimmer, but she is a repeat from Wave 1, so shouldn't be scarce.
No Holly Dash in anything I'm able to see at this time.

Here is what each case contains:
wave 1
3x Twilight Sparkle
2x Applejack
2x Rainbow Dash
2x Sky Wishes
2x Sunset Shimmer
1x Sweetie Drops
wave 2
3x Pinkie Pie
2x Rainbow Dash
2x Twilight Sparkle
2x Fluttershy
2x Flower Wishes
1x Sunset Shimmer

Wow only 1 Sweetie Drops out of 12 ponies?  First time we're getting non-main ponies in a new line and the new ones are slightly shortpacked... Why do we need three Pinkie Pies? or Twilight Sparkles?  Also, Flower Wishes?! I already have her from the "Favorite's" set of her but it's awesome she's getting another release! Also, isn't Cheerilee supposed to be getting a CMM toy? She's in a third wave perhaps?

I don't know about Rarity and Cheerilee, I'm just sharing what I'm able to see from my wholesaler. Maybe there's more that they aren't carrying that other retailers can get. Didn't mean to make things confusing, was just trying to help people to pick up scarce ones when they can.
Oh wait, I think Rarity is just a large one? The ones I mentioned are the small ones.

Target  has the next Rainbow Power  wave with Cheerilee (TAF Neon hair  ) along with  Pinkie,Fluttershy and RD, the rest of this wave is Rarity and Holy Dash  but they are not out yet.

I don't know about Rarity and Cheerilee, I'm just sharing what I'm able to see from my wholesaler. Maybe there's more that they aren't carrying that other retailers can get. Didn't mean to make things confusing, was just trying to help people to pick up scarce ones when they can.
Oh wait, I think Rarity is just a large one? The ones I mentioned are the small ones.

There is an Amazon listing for a brushable sized CMM Rarity. But the weird thing is its the only one that doesn’t have an image. I really just want a set of TAF Mane 6 that match. The Rainbow TAF are missing AJ and the CMM TAF are just different enough that they don't match.

I keep contantly checking the backroom, nothing so far. At work we JUST got more of the tinsil hair Rainbow Power. My dept manager says he is condifent we will start seeing the new pony toys after the mods are set in February.

Really, no one in the US has seen her yet!? I went up to 2 toys R Us's and still nada. Just the first 2 waves of CMM. I saw quite a few Sunset Shimmer, Rainbow Dash, SkyWishes, Twilight, AppleJack, and sometimes a Sweetie Drops. Im constantly on the lookout for Flower Wishes and Holly!

I think the first place she will pop up in will be Target over Toys R Us since they have some of the newer Rainbow Power singles.

I contacted  Hasbro about the missing Rainbow Power releases, and pretty much they told me they can't tell me anything about future releases :(
So look like to me we are being skipped :(

If you stores have the CMM wave, you wont see Holly Dash - she is the wave before unfortunately. :(

I bought my Holly Dash from Tulip (*waves*), who still has a sales thread up for her. HD's currently on her way from the UK. I thought price was fair, and it seemed like chances were growing slimmer and slimmer of HD showing up in the US. Of course, she still could, but I'd still be fine with my purchase. Saves me from going on a wild pony chase for her, LOL.

I received some Amazon giftcards for Christmas, so I wound up ordering Sweetie Drops from there. Yes, price was a little high, but again, I have her and don't have to go hunting for her. And she is a cutie!

I think the newest release I've seen at my local stores was Honey Rays at my Target. Haven't been to TrU or Walmart recently, though.

I have both of these gals coming in the mail.....Holly Dash from the UK and Sweetie Drops from Amazon. I'm glad I decided to get Holly Dash while she's available because I don't think she'll see US shores.

This is just a theory I have but, I feel it's going to be a similar situation that TF fans saw with the "First Edition" Prime cartoon toys. Everywhere was supposed to get them at first and they only popped up very rarely in Canada. Some time later and with enough pestering on the parts of the fans they got an exclusive release at Toys R Us for a short while. Mysteriously one wave even turned up at Ross a bit after that. That also happened to quite a few more waves of Transformers Prime toys. some places hardly saw  hide nor hair of some of the figures yet they popped up enmass at those stores. It was odd to say the least. With any luck that last wave of Rainbow Power stuff won't be left out completely and at the very least they may pop up at some closeout store.

I just made a trade for a Holly Dash from the UK. It was definitely the best/cheapest option at this point, although I do hope she pops up here in the US at some point.

I ended up ordering a Holly Dash from the UK earlier today, just to be on the safe side. I've only seen Skywishes and Honey Rays in stores so far, and they all had horrible factory errors so that I didn't want to buy them either. :(

i think we need a holly dash tracker across the world. is it just the uk that has found them in shops??
kind of a weird release but hey poor UK has missed out on a lot of things like the USA exclusives and the int' (Europe and Aus, NZ, Asia) exclusives .. good for them :)

PS if you live in an area and found holly dash please contact me for a trade or purchase   :biggrin:

Holly Dash has been spotted in Canada too, as well as Honey Rays and Diamond Mint. I may try to bring a few down to the Fair in June.
