My Little Pony Toys R Us Ferris Wheel

[tinyblondie]

Anyone know what happened to the MLP Cart at the Toys R Us in New York? Is it still there or not? If not does anyone know who owns it? I'm really curious about this, can you imagine having that in the corner of your pony room? It would be amazing *dreamy smile*

According to a video I found on YouTube it was still there between the Mega Bloks car and the Barbie car in 2012. I haven't been there in a number of years so I couldn't tell you beyond that, but it does appear to still be there when searching "toys r us ferris wheel 2014" in images on google. I did find something saying the space may be up for grabs in 2016, so I would look around then to see what might happen to that car!

I also checked a few images and it was definitely there in 2013 as well, so I do strongly believe it's still up there. Sorry that was so... wordy! I'm typing as I'm looking so, sorry about how messy this post is

I've never seen that before, that would be an awesome item to have, assuming someone had the space to display it.

I saw it last summer when I went to the NYC Toys 'R' Us.

We went last February. You wait forever in line and get whichever car becomes available next. We ended up with the pony car. I'll have to search for pictures. My husband said, "Is that Minty?" Good job, honey. My son wasn't as thrilled as my daughter. I think he was hoping for the Monopoly car.

I'm surprised they still have the G3 one! G4 has been out for latest four years

Here are the pictures. The pony car is on the bottom left in the distance shot.

Its been a long time since I was in NY unfortunately [maybe 7 years?!] yikes!!!! I didnt even know this Ferris Wheel existed until I walked past the TRU window then queue random Scottish woman on a NY street jumping up and down in excitement

Love the pictures!

Wow, that's gorgeous!

... If they're dismantling the Ferris Wheel in a couple of years, as possibly indicated, I wonder if the Ponies will go up for sale somewhere?

Thank you for your replies everyone!

I would love to own the cart but I cant imagine how expensive it would be. I would put it in the corner of my living room, pop in a couple of pillows and turn the area into a cute little reading space! Now I'm inspired to do a DIY project based on the cart with some Giant Plushies or maybe my Fashion Style ponies?

I'd love to ride it someday but I wont be going to America for several years and when I do I shall be touring California. But who knows, maybe one day I'll get to see it, even if I dont get to ride in the cart.

Yes, do the project! That would make a lovely reading nook.

Yes, do the project! That would make a lovely reading nook.

I'm glad you think so. I shall start planning it soon.

Summerday, those pictures are so cute!

Summerday, those pictures are so cute!

Thanks! We certainly enjoyed it. Definitely glad we got to ride, especially now that I'm hearing we may not get another opportunity.

Oh how fun! I didn't know that, that existed! It would be fun to ride! I will be in NY this summer for work, so I will definitely have to take a spin on it!
