Anyone having a hard time finding the newest wave?
« on: October 07, 2012, 05:25:05 PM »
I went to my local Big Lots yesterday and they had a ton of the newest ponies in stock. I was hoping to find older waves, but was surprised to see a ton of the newest ponies.. (Lyra, Trixe, Sunny, Cherry..)

Anyone having trouble finding them locally? I'd be willing to pick some up and trade for older G4 ponies or set exclusives..

Karrie, who are you looking for?  I picked up some extras of the older ones that I would be willing to sell.  Unfortunately I bought them at a place that sells them for about $8 each.  I can't find them in stores that sell them for $5 anymore.

For the longest time I could not find any of the new ponies listed above but then I found one Cherry Berry and a week later I found a Trixie Lulamoon in the target near me. I ended up finding all 4 at Kohl's but the price was almost $10 a piece. Luckily, someone bought the 2 I was missing for me at Kohl's. I was very thankful. But now every store I go into has all of them with and without DVD.

It was only a matter of time before they started showing up a little more regularly - stores and retailers and warehouses had to get through previous waves first! Congrats on finding some new ponies!

My town has been really up to date with brushables and at good prices too, but the only blindbags I can find are wave one. Is there anypony in particular you need?

Blossomforth is at the top of my list. Any chance you have an extra?

Has anyone seen them this side of the pond yet? Or the collectors sets/zecora?

Whether we get collectors/zecora is 50/50. Canada did get them which means they are not US only but even though they were slated to be US only and they did make it north of the border in the US its a much bigger leap to this side of the pond.

The Lyra/Trixie set will get a wider release eventually - any store which is carrying wedding singles keep an eye out as as soon as they are out of stock the next wave should hit. I have heard of them being found in a couple of Argos stores but thats it so far.

Hmmmm, that's annoying. I am debating whether it's worth me making the trip to TRU to look for ponies, it's not looking too promising.

There's no sign so far on the Argos website, though FS ponies are half price on there. Argos is kind of annoying though because you can't see the stuff you have to go and ask for it.

Thanks for the info anyway :)
