Title: FS Applejack and Daisy Explosion at my house!
Post by: Thunderwing on November 22, 2015, 04:07:02 PM: Population explosion, that is. o.o THEY ARE ALL FOR SALE! $30 each, no rubs on eyes or symbols, slight shelf wear to boxes.

I went into one of our local stores that doesn't normally stock toys, but around Christmas they tend to bring some out from the back room. Last year they had seasonal G3.5 ponies. I wondered what there would be this year. Turned the corner into the aisle, and immediately spotted a lovely Daisy Dreams! As I am reaching to snatch her up, I'm thinking about how awesome it would be if there was an Applejack too! There was not only one AJ, there were TWO! Score! Bought them all, though they were priced at $20 each.

This week, I went back to see if they had restocked. They had not, but the leftover Pinkie was marked half price!

So I spent five hours today, driving around to every example of that particular chain within any sort of reasonable distance, buying up AJ's and DD's at $10 each. Woot!

Good old Canadian tire

They are the second release. Still somewhat rarer than the others, but not as rare as the first release.

Post by: UrocyonFox on December 02, 2015, 08:08:34 AM: awww, I really want this AJ but I cannot justify paying $30 for her. Bummer.

I noticed you said you found them at one of "our local stores that doesn't normally stock toys" which one was it?
