*sighs* Has anyone found any regular Lunas in their stores lately?

I have yet to see one and my order was canceled online. >.<

There have been two sitting on the shelf at my local Hot Topic for a little while now.  Aside from a bunch of blue Discords, those are the only ones I've seen.

Wanted to drop by and say I managed to get a glitter Celestia off ebay for only $28!!! I feel really lucky, considering I was scared she would go up over my limit. Yay!!!

Also..... does it seem like Glitter Celestia is easier to find? It seems like every HT i know has had at least two!

Yeah, glitter Celestia has been the easiest to find by far. I think Discord came close, because a ton of people (including myself) got him in their pre-order, it seemed.

But yeah, I ended up selling my extra glitter Celestia to a friend for store value because eBay didn't seem worth it, and everyone wants to trade their extra glitter Celestia for glitter Luna, so I knew I'd have no luck with that either.

Congrats though, $28 is a great deal!

It's weird but Glitter Celestia seems to be the least popular glitter yet-  the surprise to me is Rarity, who still seems to be generally high, even though she has never been in short supply and has been out for a while now.

I wouldn't say least popular, just extremely easy to find in relation to the other glitter ponies. I've never seen so many people with an extra of a particular glitter variant until Celestia.

Personally, Rarity was very hard for me to find. I haven't even seen her regular Funko around in months. When she was released with Daring Do and Discord, Discord was EVERYWHERE but Daring Do and Rarity weren't as easy to track down and I had 7 different Hot Topic's in the area to choose from. Not one of them had all 3 at the same time.

You must have not seen my Twilight/Trixie wave haha... I think its this people are obsessed with the glitter Luna, and I think people who got the glitter Luna in orders kept her rather than selling her. It is interesting to see when one glitter floods the market while the other stays more rare. Usually seems to happen with one of the ponies for awhile. Remember Applejack was going a lot cheaper than Big Mac for awhile, and there were a lot more Applejacks on ebay. Rarity was the hard one for me too for awhile, Discord was everywhere plus I got him in my order. It comes down to popularity, supply and demand, and luck.

Princess role-call! :D Im bugginf the crap outta Funko for Cadance.

Im honestly happy with my Luna, if I never find the glitter version im ok with that. I quite enjoy the regular variant! So I need Daring, Discord, Rarity, AJ, Big Mac in glitter forme *sigh* im so far behind! I seem to have great luck on ebay, so i'll stick to that rather than the stores for my primary hunting spot. My HT sells out too fast being in a ritzy area close to colleges and high schools.... I barely stand a chance! xD

Oh wow that was fast. Both for her being online and being sent to you.

I appreciate the, offer and I would take you up on it, but if the defect is as bad as you are describing, I will pass for now. I am a collector :P I'll bide my time. You're the sweetest, thank you :D

If someone wants a Celestia + Luna set - I still have an extra two sets that I'd be happy to sell you a set at cost + shipping (Works out to about $35 a set + calculate shipping for a box that weighs 2 lb 10 oz from 98164)

Got glitter-Luna few days ago, unfortunately it arrived with a broken tail, so I had to fix it. I had the option to return her, but I figured, I'm not going to get her with so affordable price ever again (broken tail was not the reason, why it was cheap, that was just a coincidence).
