When she was out around where I live she was common. I saw plenty of her in stores and easily got her and Blossomforth with no trouble. Is she really being re-leased with AJ?

Edit: I was mistaken it was Cheerilee not Blossomforth that came out together. But all 3 I had no trouble finding.

I don't know that she is really HTF, but with the new influx of G4 collectors who missed out on her (maybe they were not collecting when she was on the shelves) she has become fairly sought after. :)

I think this is exactly the reason. She was a wave 2 pony - therefore she was on shelves incredibly early in G4 and so many fans who have only come to collecting after waves like this were already out of production missed out on her.

She is indeed sailing super high in price at the moment - seems to be $35-40 for MIB and $25-30 for her loose and complete. I think, as cloud weaver says, a lot of these prices are falsely inflated and as the years on G4 pass they will simmer back down.

She got an international release as a bonus pony in a pack along with luggage playful Apple Jack. This set is quite old - out almost a year ago initially so it doesnt seem to be available much any more.

I missed her because I wasn't actively buying them then ;-; My demand at that price range is a negative, but I know that if I ever saw her again at a lower price range I'd be super happy. To me she's super HTF and I want her XDD

I only ever bought 2 of her, one to keep as herself, then i delayed until it was almost too late to grab one to turn into the 'bubblebutt pony'. Pretty sure i grabbed the last one left in town.
She didnt sell out very quickly, neither did Cherrilee. Actually where i am ponies take a while to sell out, unless they are on sale.

Hm, is there really a high demand for her? I have one for trade/sale, but nobody wants her...

Wow really? Considering that I always see people on the look out for her thats odd...perhaps ebay is an unfortunate better plan.

Thanks Hathorcat for clearing up the Lily Blossom and AJ double pack that was released for me.

When she and Cheerilee were released, they were common in my area, too - I actually passed her up originally and only got her in a trade with a member here later.  I think she's lovely and not particularly rare but just popular and a little HTF at the moment.
Sales on HOLD!

I only started buying g4 later, when I could get them cheaper... most of mine were $4 (in aus, they go from $7-$10 RRP) and fortunately I snapped up all the singles. I had trouble with (and paid full price for) Lily Blossom, Blossomforth, Lulu Luck and Dewdrop Dazzle. Bf, LL and DD came out early here, and were the first non-mane six, so I guess they were super popular here. Lily Blossom was just really popular, I'd never thought of bait value, but yeah, that makes sense as to why. All of those girls were extremely hard to find here, anyway! I can still find Twinkleshine, Snowcatcher, Feathermay and Honeybuzz in stores that haven't completely reset yet, in fact I saw them today at Northlakes Big W... before I found Cherry Pie and Diamond Rose at Target there! (YAY!!!!)

I wish I got more of her, but I only saw one of her back when she was released least year, I got her in October at Target, Cheerilee was far more common for longer, maybe cause everyone bought Lily to turn into :muffin: Pony. I wish I got two. :c

Strange how these things happen. I remember seeing her in stores and having a weird premonition thing where I thought she would be worth something later on. That's why I have three MIB Lily Blossoms in my dresser. ._. can't believe it happened actually, lol.

I live in Canada and I NEVER saw her in stores from the get go.  I ordered mine on amazon for 6 dollars about a year ago along with Cheerilee.
