Is Nurse Redheart sought after?
« on: January 05, 2015, 06:08:37 PM »
I was just wondering if the 'Rainbow Powered' Nurse Redheart brushable from Walgreens is hard to find, and whether I should have bought the ones I saw the other day for collectors in search of them? It seems like they're not selling that well on Ebay, so I thought maybe they're not that hard to find, but her name seems to come up a lot on want lists. Could anyone clarify for me?

Walgreens is an America-only chain right? Honestly I haven't seen her at all but I don't think she'll be too sought after at the moment because she's still soon to be available in stores. Also a lot of these wishlists could be from collectors outside of America.

I thought she launched in October of last year? Is she still available? I haven't gone to Walgreens to get mine, but I feel like maybe I should ha!

I saw one in-store on Wednesday, so they're not exhausted yet.

Her US exclusivity makes her popular with people outside the US who cant grab her in store (not to mention in areas where a Walgreens does not trade perhaps)...but she was pretty readily available online and in stores and so many people bought her in bulk and resold her at cost or mark up that I dont think she is worth more than retail to be fair.

I finally found her on Sunday when I went to pick up a couple of prescriptions. I hadn't seen her at all before then so I was happy to finally find her and she was the only one too!

I bought her back in September, but recently I was at a Walgreens that had a whole display filled with nothing but Nurse Redheart! I should have bought a second then, because at my local Walgreens they only have one that is really dirty inside the packaging...

I know she's still here cuz a coworker bought as a Christmas present for me. I have wondered if she will be one of the harder to find ones in the distant future.

I can agree that she is HTF for those areas where she is not readily available. I was able to get one back around Halloween, and then the Walgreen's around me were empty. I happened to be in another city and looked and they had nothing but Redheart! I grabbed one for my DD.

So I think it just comes down to area availability...

Maybe someday she'll be HTF and her price might go up as she disappears completely but I think right now most people are just selling her near cost. I'm kinda glad because she'll make a great bait! :D

Where are people finding her, at the registers? In the toy aisle? Or somewhere else altogether?

My Walgreens has a dedicated toy area and then various aisles where MLP stuff sometimes shows up anyway, "seasonal merchandise" and so on. When I've seen Redheart she's been in the dedicated toy area.

At my store she was in the dedicated toy area, but, confusingly, not with the other ponies but in a huge display rack on a top shelf.  So unless you were looking for her you wouldn't really see her...especially if you are a kid!  Last I checked they still had about a million of them there, and they were on sale.  I might pick up a few more for potential baits, mwa ha ha ha.

I picked up the only one left of her at my local Walgreens today (in the toy aisle with other MLP stuff). Last time I had looked there were like 8 of them, so they might be running out and become sought after later on. I just like her   :happy:
