Brony at TRU

[rybett]

We picked up Zecora and FS Twi last night.  Guy that checked us out took a pic of Zecora to send to his pony pals.  He swears he has no clue when more BBs will be in.  Knowing Hasbro, I believe it.  Really hope they re-release the 6.  2 down, 4 to go.  Very interesting to talk to a salesperson who actually knew what we were talking about.  KWIM?

Gahhhh, they've got Zecora now?? I want her so bad but when I called them they said they didn't have her yet, boooooo!!! Won't be in town until this weekend so I hope there are still some left by then. Did you notice if there were many?

Congrats, by the way!! I bet the same guy who helped you is the same one I asked about blind bags. He told me his friends were bronies. xD

That is pretty awesome

I think that the Zecoras are starting to pour in more- TRU took the link off of their online ordering, but it is back- suggesting that they are getting more in

What does Brony mean? Just getting back into this pony thing and not sure what your talking about?   Is it a guy who collects ponies?

avene!!! *HUGS* So good to see you posting around again. A brony generally refers to people who are fans of the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic show. I always thought it referred to only male fans/collectors of that show... but I guess it can refer to females as well. Depends on who you ask! It all has to do with Friendship is Magic though.

It's such a treat to talk to an employee who is also a collector or fan and is familiar with the merch!  Congrats on your new purchases too.

Last time I was in TRU the employee who helped me in the pony isle told me that her boyfriend was a big FIM fan.  She named some of the ponies on the shelves that she had learned from watching the show with him, it was sweet.

There were 3 other Zecoras last night.

Oh thank you for telling me what it is. Yes I am back to posting and adding to my small collection. I miss them christmas ponies that you had got for me back then. I am hooping to add them all back again someday

Goodness!  It's a South Dakota convention.  A-G need me to grab Zecora for you?  Hubby is working this weekend and the Hurricane and I will need something to do.

We all live in SD? I know Aerosmith_Gal is

[aero_oceana]

rybett - I would say yes but I just called them and they told me they don't have any anymore. Boooooo!! They did say they should be getting more in on the next truck though so I'm gonna cross my fingers I'll find her this weekend. Thanks so much for the offer though.

Yes, avene!! There have been more pony collectors springing up in our area.

[achab1984]

Really that is awsome to hear. How is the Target and Toys R Us in Sioux Falls with keeping ponies in stock ? Anywere else in that town that carries them?

[rybett]

Target stunk when I was there a couple of days ago.  Hold that, West side one stunk.  Have not checked East.  Walmart on the west side is OK, have not checked east.  TRU varies.    A-G, keep calling them, if they come in, give me a yell.  Pretty easy for me to zip over there.  Avene, where abouts are you?

[achab1984]

Oh I wish I lived closer to Sioux Falls. I live in Mission Hill, right out of Yankton Its about 80 miles or so for me to come up there. We have Wal Mart and Kmart. But Kmart is way over priced on there stuff.

Are the Targets getting ready for the Holiday season? Did the TRU get the favorite sets up there? It comes with the dark black or blue pony. And there were a bounch of smaller ones with it. LOL

[aero_oceana]

Yeah, TRU had the Favorites set. I managed to snag one before they sold out. Hopefully they'll be getting more in sometime soon!

Yankton is where I do most of my shopping too... it's been great for Monster High hunting!
