Title: Those in the US- can you find newer waves of blindbags anymore?
Post by: Shadoweon on June 29, 2017, 11:38:11 AM
I've noticed for many months now, Blind Bags are not updated at all. Atleast in my area. I used to look forward to finding newer waves but now all I see is Wave 15 or absolutely nothing.

I've checked Toys R US,Walmart, Target and its all the same. Has anyone else had this problem? I really wanted to find the Big Macintosh from Wave  18 ._.

I barely even look at the MLP stock anymore because it barely changes at all in my area.

Other than the locations you listed I've found blind bags at Kohls and Five Below.

I find them at Walmart and Target, however, they are all the PP waves except one Walmart has the Nightmare Night ones.  I still can't figure out where the code is on those bags and am really frustrated that it used to be so easy and now it's not.  Anyone have a picture pointing out where the codes are now?  The other thing is is Walmart packaged them with the PP ones as "value" 2 packs and I don't need a bunch I don't want.  There is only a handful for which I am looking.

i never even found any of the halloween ones at any of my stores, and since the halloween wave i have seen no other bags anywhere. its really bums me out, 1) because i want them, and 2) because it makes it harder for my niece to pick out something small to get when i have to take her to target. theyre her favorite thing to get : (

I've seen Wave 16 at Kroger and a local comic shop.  As stated, Wave 17 has been at Walmart paired with Wave 15.  Wave 18 showed up in Walgreens.  I've also seen one box of Wave 20 at the same local comic shop that had  Wave 16.  Toys R Us and Target are still on Wave 15 while Family Dollar and Dollar General vary, but I've not seen anything more recent than Wave 15 and some still have bags as far back as Wave 11.

For a while it's been all older stuff but recently the Rarity wave popped up at the Walmart near me that's actually good for finding new stuff.

Oooh, lucky!! I really want him :D We're still stuck on the Halloween ones over here.

MLP Merch (http://data.mlpmerch.com/blind-bags/release/wave-20) has the codes :)

I found the Rarity wave at Walmart today also, but haven't looked at the code list yet. I was sad to see the window is no longer included so you can't see the pony anymore.

Halloween ones never showed up in my area, I have no idea what wave my dollar general is on, the local wall mart has nothing blind bag wise.

Waves 16 and 18 showed up in Houston, but I've yet only seen 17 in San Antonio. I've also found 20 in San Antonio (!!!!) but have yet to see 19 anywhere.

As for stores, Walmart has been my best source, at least in San Antonio, never see anything in the Walmart around here. I've found the Halloween waves at Kroger. All Targets I've seen still have boxes and boxes of 15, and most Toys R Us that I've seen don't even sell blindbags anymore.

When Target started putting out the new movie toys, a few boxes of one of the Nightmare Night waves showed up there too.  I think it was either Wave 16 or 18 but I don't remember for certain (I'd already tracked them all down elsewhere so I didn't look too closely).  Walmart has the second of Rarity's waves (Wave 20), but I haven't seen any trace of the first Rarity wave (Wave 19).  Toys R Us had moved their blind bags to near the check-out lanes the last time I saw them there, but I haven't seen them in awhile so I don't know if I'm just not looking in the right place or if they have stopped carrying them entirely.

If it is helpful information, JoAnn Fabric and Craft stores - at least some - sell blind bags. However I can tell you that they haven't been updated in several months, at least the one I work at hasn't had a new box of them in a very long time. For future reference maybe?
