Ponies weren't supposed to be next. Hello kitty is next up, but for some reason they're handing out the old 2012 ponies.  My daughter got lily blossom today, one she missed last year so we were quite happy about that! Now to get that elusive pinkie pie!

Do you have to get a Happy Meal to get them, or can you buy just the toys? I wouldn't mind picking up a few, but don't want to buy multiple happy meals. If you can buy just them, any idea about how much they are?

I work at McD's.  You can buy them separately.  It may vary by area, but ours cost $1.33.

Man do people really want these still? I find hundreds of them at the thrift store and always pass them up :X

I used to think that too, until I saw bronies buying them for $5 or more a piece. :shocked: I don't get it, but I'll be happy to take their money! :lol:

Ponies are worth what people pay for them, aren't they? But now since every brony wants one, people know they can charge more than what it's worth. At an anime convention a man was selling 2012 MLPs for $5.00. I seriously looked him in the eye and laughed at him. He's overcharging because he knows someone's going to break the money for it. It's a bit melancholy I think. A right price I think is at least $1.50 (I've seen a lot of collector's go down to 25 cents each).

Thanks for the heads up! I'll give mine a shot because I've been striking out at retail lately and the cheaper the ponies are, the more I like 'em.

I also work at McDonald's, and we're working on clearing out old toys; unfortunately, our store doesn't seem to have any ponies left.  >_< Doesn't stop me from looking for them every time I go in the back.  :lol:

Whew... I thought they'd cheaped out on this year's promotion and were just giving out the same ponies.  Period.  Not merely clearing out last year's toys.  *sigh of relief*

Is there any word on when 2013 might have McPonies on offer?  Just in case anypony's heard... :whistle:

This may just be a rumor, but I saw this pic floating around with the text that new figurines will be at Burger King, not McDonald's, this March:

Not sure if that is a render or an actual pic, though...

Oh, rumours... you make my head spin... :dizzy:

I dabbled my hooves into a passel of sites looking for verification, but this one seems all nebulous.  I'm itching to know if it's true, has anypony seen these cropping up on eBay?  Or does somepony out there work at a BK?

Indeed! Indeed! I would love one! Any one...!

Really!!! Do you know when they started putting them in the happy Meals? We were at ours a week ago and they were not giving out ponies. And the other questions that I have is what do they look like?
