Title: Are people looking for this wave of blind bags?
Post by: Sunset on May 12, 2017, 12:53:14 PM
I saw these at 2 out of 3 of my local HEB today.  It's the Nightmare Night theme with Berryshine, Fiddly Twang, Golden Harvest, and Big Mac as the chasers.   It was the first time I've seen this wave in person and I wanted to let people know if they are looking for it.

OMG that's the elusive Wave 16!  Try to snag as many as you can since they didn't appear anywhere else in the US. (Didn't Holly Dash also pop up at HEB?)

I don't know about Holly Dash. But Pursey Pink did.  In fact one of the stores still had one.

At this point I'm only collecting the specific ones I want.  I was able to find Berryshine. But Sassaflash and Fiddly Twang were already gone from both boxes.  I did find Golden Harvest and Big Mac but left them both behind.

Would you be willing to help anyone who is not lucky enough to have a HEB nearby? I'm actually pretty interested in all of them except the costume ones and RD mold FS. (I just can't stand that mold for her when she has her own, more accurate mold)

I've seen Wave 16 at Kroger as well if you have those instead of HEB.  I might be able to help pick some up if not.

I just found some at Walgreens today. Go figure. (pun intended)

Walgreens is wave 18. The ponies on the bag are slightly different.

I'd be willing to help you out for cost plus shipping.  Message me the codes for the ones you want and I can go look for them on Sunday.

This or the other nightmare night wave is at our Walmart but they stuck them together with one of the PP waves I am guessing to move them since they have been sitting forever. I also can't find the codes on the bags again now that the windows are gone.

The wave at Walmart is Wave 17.  The codes are on the bottom edge again, but they can be difficult to read sometimes.

OMG, the rest of the US won't get this wave?! I keep hoping I'll see it at Target, how annoying is this! The one ADORABLY themed wave (the rest of them are nice, but they don't have much by way of themes!) and it's not properly distributed!! Rage!!!

Wow they do exist, maybe there's still hope. Our stores have been stuck on Wave 15 for ages. I'm dying for 16/17/18 to show up.

Is it just me or have Hasbro really dropped the ball with distributing the blind bags in general lately? We've been stuck on the Halloween ones for months over here (doesn't help that for some inane reason they split the waves in half over here), I'm dying for something new..

Well, there is no telling.. They could pop up somewhere else.  I would check every store in your area that carry toys.

It's weird, I just remembered another thing that my HEB got that didn't show up in my other stores.  The accessory two packs for the Nightmare Night collection, the ones with Spike and the CMC.  They were available on Amazon but none of my local stores carried these particular sets except HEB.  Not Target, not Walmart not TRU.

For anyone that is interested, I have an extra set of the chase figures from this wave that I'm willing to sell for $3 each plus shipping.
