Wave 2 MLP FIM blind bags?
« on: April 11, 2012, 09:34:40 PM »
Hey everypony, so, I finished my Wave 1 collection of the FIM blind bags, but my walmart  and toys R us do not seem to have the second wave yet. I was just wondering if the 2nd wave has been released in the USA yet and if not if anypony knew when they would....? I heard a rumor of May. but I doubt it's true.
Thanks!

No idea. Think we had to wait a year longer than other countries to get wave 1 so probably at least another year long wait for wave 2.

The distribution is just plain weird...we skipped 1 and 2 altogether in the UK...straight into wave 3...I wouldnt be surprised if wave 4 or 5 start showing up instead of earlier waves [as the boxes are all decked out for the wedding] - but I think everyones guess is open as to the where and when and what!

That's what worries me. I definitely don't want them to skip wave 2 since I'm so close to getting all the ones I wanted. I only need Feathermay, Cheerilee, Blossomforth, Pudding Pie and Twinkleshine. But I haven't really seen anyone trading or selling the wave 2 blind bags for awhile now, so I've been hoping they'd come to the US eventually so I could just buy them when they got here. I've also only managed to get my hands on 3 of the third wave, which still leaves 8 of them that I want. As much as I like wave 4 & 5, I don't want them at the expense of missing the previous waves.

Hasbro's handling of the blind bags is just plain weird. Here's what I've been able to understand... but I wasn't paying particularly close attention so someone please correct me if wrong.

Germany (and Australia?) - got wave 1, then 2, then 3
UK - went right to wave 3, has not seen waves 1 or 2
USA - started wave 1 long after Europe countries, not seen waves 2 or 3

waves 4 and 5 - so far only seen on taobao and online pics, not on shelves in any country, but wave 5 (yellow) package seems to be wedding themed.


Plus it doesn't seem like Hasbro knows what they themselves are planning, since some people in the community reported that Hasbro told them the blind bags would NOT be coming to the US at all, and then a year later we saw them here.

Who knows when and where the next ones will show up!

Yep, that's correct.... it seems like before doing anymore waves in other country they should realese some of the other ones in the USA and other countries that don't have anything but wave 1 still.

At the toy fair, Hasbro representatives for MLP said that wave 2 was coming to the US, but I can't remember when. At least it's coming! :D

I really hope they don't start skipping waves here. I'd be really disappointed if they do.
It's kind of torture knowing that they are up to wave 3 in other countries but there is no guarantee on what will be released where I live. The fact that the first two waves were skipped in the UK and we are seeing up to wave 5 on taobao makes me worried they will start skipping to catch up.
