US Blind Bags Wave 3 and Wave 4- Where have they been found?

[Flutterwonder13]

In my area all the Walmarts are barren, few Targets seem to have any blind bags anymore (maybe they sold out fast?), and the TRU only has the pink bags right now.

Wow ditto for me too!


Has anyone heard of the stores FYE and Newbery Comics? I know these are 'chain stores' but I'm not sure how far the chains have spread--possibly only in New England. I found the purple blind bags at both these stores at my local mall. The prices were a little outrageous though. FYE (which is short for For Your Entertainment I think...) had them for $3, but Newbery Comics charged a whopping $5 each!

I'm in Illinois, I have an FYE in my local mall! Wow, that was the last place I thought to look. Well it's worth a shot!

I found Wave 4 at a Walmart in Linden, NJ

I looked through the box but had no luck finding Trixie, which was the one I was actually looking for. Still bought a few though

I'm going to check my FYE too, thanks for the tip! $3 is what my TRU has the pink ones for and I never saw them for another price until I found blue boxes at Walmart this past weekend for $1.97.

I only found one blue bag at a walmart. It was obvious a collector beat me to the box because it was completely empty and had it not been for someone misplacing a bag on the shelf, I would not have this one. Houston Texas....get more bags...this was very sad...nothing was left at all for me..sigh....I am taking it hard.

A collector must be out in my area too.....or just a fan of the show. Just a couple days ago my Wal-Mart had a full case of the blue bags. I went back last night and they were all gone.

I have gotten some of the ones in the blue bags from Walmart and some pink bags from Target. I am in So Cali

I am back to say FYE is a great place to look, picked up 9 purple bags I didn't have!

Most of the Walmarts in Corpus Christi, TX have the Wave 4 bags.
It makes me wonder if they had Wave 3 at some point since I wasn't there during the summer (went back home for summer vacation).

I wish I still had an f.y.e near me.  Both of the ones I'd go to have closed down over the years. Although the one in my non-college home turned into a full arcade. ;_;

saw wave 4 today at two different walmarts. Brand new boxes too.

Northern CA Bay area,

Walmart had 2 boxes of wave 4 & a few wave 1.

Toys r us had tons of wave 3 (more than 40) but almost all of them were the main six numbers. Not one Golden Harvest or Lyra heartstrings

I have never seen a blind bag at a Target in my area.
Where is wave 2?

Anyone else notice that Wave 3 came and went fairly quick? I only saw one box at my walmart and then never again...wave 1 seemed to stick around for so long..

[DazzleKitty]

Wave 2 wasn't released in the USA, and is no past in the rest of the world too, so pretty hard to find now. There are 3 of them in the Toys R Us "Friendship Celebration Collection" set with 9 from wave 1 and 23 little accessories. See the first post in this thread.
