Aussies! Have you seen anything new?

[Trinity]

I went shopping today...

My local Target is a mess! They have lots of old singles, a few canterlot sets, and many cloudsdale/royals/apples mini figure sets (and only these three types!).

My Big W has a couple of wedding singles, tons of the "travel" singles, some old playsets, fashion styles and tons of the glitter/rainbow set of mini figures with Emerald Ray. (Also, the pony section in Big W has shrunk! ... Also also, they still have classroom Monster High sets... Which are ridiculously priced... o_o)

I haven't bothered going to Toy World - they have never had anything good.

Supermarkets have random singles for around $9. Also, I haven't been to Kmart since before Christmas, but their assortment is probably random. They had one Trixie, which I snagged.

Is it like this for everyone else? Why I'm asking is because I was wondering if any Crystal Empire toys have been seen yet. I'd love to get my hands on a Luna because she's my favourite character at the moment.

I have not seen any blind bags anywhere. I've heard of them being seen at Toys R Us and Myer, but they're too far away for me to bother at the moment.

FS Rarity and Pinkie Pie are making a comeback (the original releases). Rainbow Dash has poofed off the shelf in some stores.

I'm noticing the wave with Feathermay is thinning out... $9 singles were snapped up in the lead-up to Christmas. If you need them, it's best to grab them now.

Big W is odd... they have the FS Cadence and Shining Armor set, which is Crystal Empire. The rainbow blind bag set is also meant to be Crystal Empire. I know what you mean about their range, it's always been paltry where I am though. (Also, yeah, they also still have Monster High Dead Tired 1 and Sweet 1600 hanging around at stupid prices that won't seem to go down)

TRU has the Crystal Empire moving ponies (RD with glitter wings, TS that nods her head and AJ that rears). Some other places are starting to get them in. Same with more of the wedding line (bridesmaids, etc)

Blind bags are very difficult to get here and only TRU have them for $3.12 each. They go quick though and TRU don't always restock them once they run out. I've heard about blind bags at Myer but I've never ever seen them. Same deal with Toy World

I've seen all the ponies from the Lyra wave at Target Country. That's about it.

I have seen a couple of posts of people in Aus finding some CE ponies - here is one thread http://mlparena.com/mlp/index.php/topic,315223.msg510682.html#msg510682

Yeah I have 3 MOC Movable G4 ponies and 1 unboxed movable Rainbow Dash. Also I've seen Rarity rereleased, Lyra and Cherry Berry released here and that's like.. About it.. Sigh I want them to release more.

I guess I must be patient for now. 

The rainbow set is $15

Whaaa? It's like $25 at my Big W!

pfft!! we don't get new stuff!! i went to target sunday night for 24 hour trading, what a disgrace. there was stuff all over the floor, nothing in the right spots. big w and tru were the same. boxing day went to a diff target and big w, and there pony ranges were gone. nil. nada. so much for boxing day sales i don't even bother going to kmart anymore, we refer to it as that waste of space, and everyone generally knows what you mean if you want new stuff, you're better off ordering via america tru and getting it shipped.
