TY Beanie Babies found in Blackpool UK :-) x

[louiselovesbagsandshoes]

Today was a good day!!!  Family day at the seaside resulting in finding G4 TY Beanie Babies :-)  Sorry if this is old news, but this is the first time I've seen them to buy in the UK so I'm quite excited 

There's an amusement arcade called Coral Island on the north shore and just next to it there's a market where they basically sell all the same toys they have in the claw machines in the arcades, we usually end up going there to buy something specific we haven't been able to win and it keeps my little boy happy to get something he's really wanted    So there they were!  They were £5.99 each.  I picked up Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Twilight Sparkle (I think these are the only ones available at the moment right?).  They are so cute!  I hope they release at least AJ, Fluttershy and Rarity.  They also had some bigger ones with fluffy manes and tails, they were £9.99 each and they had all the mane 6.  I didn't get any of them but I'm actually regretting it as they were really nice!  Maybe a good excuse for another day out next week?!  xxx

Sorry kids!  Here you go!  In hindsight I should have probably just got them all and offered them to people on here, will think on next time :-) x

Some bits of their hair was a bit matted and gross looking, seems to have brushed out ok but not as silky as I'd like.  Not sure if that's how they're made or if it's from their rough start in life tied to a Blackpool seafront market day in day out haha!  The guy was like 'Ahh you getting all 3, but do you know all their names?' in jest like - his face when I said well yes actually I do, it was a picture! :-D xxx

Those are kind of cute

I think I might have seen these at Justice at the mall.  Is that possible?  Are they in the US?

[louiselovesbagsandshoes]

I would have thought these are available in the US, but I'm in the UK :-) x

I'm pretty sure they've been sighted in Hub Hobby in the US, they are there.

I want onee, my local Ryman sell a ton of Beanie Babies, I'm going to keep my eyes open for them.

I found them this week too! In Minehead, Somerset. It seems seafront gift shops is the way to go for them xD They were £6.99 here. They don't seem to have the bigger ones but I'll have a look when I pop back to get Pinkie (Twilight's horn and mane just looks weird =/ it's a shame because she's my favourite but...eh, I'll make do with the BAB one).

Dash's mane was a lil flyaway but it was tamed with a little bit of brushing (much less work than the BAB one!). She's very cute but much less "beanie" than I was expecting.

Not bad. But apart from the novelty of a TY MLP toy, I don't know that I particularly need them. As it is, I'm severely cutting down on my plushie purchases as I have so, so many. I've been actually thinking of donating/selling a portion of them.

I've been hunting like mad for these all over the state capitol, and no luck *eyes ponies jealously* I'm still a big Ty collector and have...ummm...let's just say a couple hundred various beanies and leave it at that.  good to hear they are starting to hit the shelves.
