New(ish) giant colouring books at Wal-Mart!
« on: August 08, 2012, 04:58:29 PM »
When I ducked into Wal-Mart to do my daily wedding ponies & posters check, I noticed a new display of those 'Giant' $1 colouring books just inside the door! It had to have just gone up, because we were there yesterday and didn't see it (it didn't look like anyone else had even purchased from it yet). And guess what?

LUNA'S ON THE COVER!

Actually, it's Celestia on one side, and Luna and Celestia on the other. The colouring pages and activities seem to be more-or-less the same as the previous book (with the Mane Six and Spike on the cover) - there are one or two differences that are so minor as to not be worth mentioning, but it DOES have the Luna page! So if you missed out on getting that the last time around or you just want a book with Luna on the cover (I sure did!), you may get another chance!

If you haven't seen them at all yet - they're very tall, thin books with around 24 pages, with each page having either a large picture of a cast member to colour or a very simple activity. They're usually in a cardboard display box with various other character colouring books (like Hello Kitty) - this one was the first thing I saw after walking in today, but I've also seen the displays in the back, near Electronics, or with the rest of the books.

(Edited to add location - this was at a Wal-Mart in smallish town southeast Georgia!)

I found a giant coloring book along with some g3.5 stickers at a Walmart in NC a few days ago too. The book was on the ground next to the regular MLP section. There was a picture of Twilight and Spike on the front with the other mane 6 in the background. It was sorta dirty, but not completely ruined. It had some nice new vectors in it though. My sister really wanted one because of the nice vectors of Dash and Luna, so we went looking for another one. It took FOREVER, but we finally found the coloring book section on the side of the store opposite to the toys. There was one more left, so we got it. I also picked up some G3.5 stickers that were underneath the posters. But sadly there were no MLP posters. The coloring books and stickers were $1 each.

Cool! I hope someone posts a pic.  :lookround: I have the "giant" one without Luna on the cover but she is on the inside.

My Walmart got rid of that big coloring book display long ago so I hope I can find it!
