There is a new wave of Pony Mania coming out and according to a promo there should be several dolls as well as new pony.

The Fluttershy doll as well as the flower pony 6 pack has been spotted in Australia.

I spotted FS Daring Do last Saturday at a US TRU but I'm worried about the others. Mostly because the stores have been skipping whole waves of MLP. And it wouldn't be the first time several TRU stores skip a whole wave of exclusives. They skipped Monster High I Heart Fashion Cleo and Venus because the shelves were clogged with Clawdeens from the Clawdeen and Scarah wave. The shelves at TRU in the US are currently clogged with the Snapshots 3 packs, the "Gothic" pony 6 pack (which has been spotted in Australia at least) and the Photo Finish single pony. A year ago when I was in TRU they had all of the first Pony Mania set but this year all I'm seeing of the new wave is one FS pony. I'm worried I'm going to need to import these if they even end up getting made.

Don't tell me the U.S. is skipping ANOTHER wave! >_> Maybe since last year's exclusives bombed so much, they're trying to sell what stock is left over before putting the new stuff out?

I don't care about most of this wave- but I AM hoping that they do a Chrysalis doll!  (And I hope she is a deluxe without two color legs)

I dunno if it bombed so much as they overestimated the popularity and ordered way too much. There have been a few times after the sales the shelves were depleted a little but then more came from the warehouse and they clogged the shelves again. They ordered too much I Heart Fashion Clawdeen too but nobody would say she was a dud.

I mostly want the 6 pack and Chryssy. I might want other dolls if they are articulated or I can find articulated body matches.

I guess I made the right decision to get all the playful ponies (except Cadance) off eBay instead. Or maybe not. It's still early, and pony distribution dates never make much sense, so I wouldn't be surprised if everything still showed up in a week or two.

You mean the ones from China? Those are usually factory error ponies. I'm not planning on removing the designs and anything printed off would bother me.

I hope they reveal the rest of the dolls soon! I'm really looking forward to seeing Chryssie.

I hope these get released over here - I really want Maud and it's kind of hit-or-miss as to whether we get the TRU pony exclusives over here D:.

Yeah, but they look just fine.

The TRU exclusives of previous years I don't think hit most US stores until late Aug.- early Sept..
I wouldn't panic just yet. Maude was on the website before. I'm sure she'll be re-stocked. Pony Mania FS Daring Do & talking Celestia are still there. I think the other items will stock soon.

I really hope the Cryssy doll looks good, I don't expect actual holes in her legs but I'm hoping they will give her leggings and not two colored legs like the neon and school spirit lines.

[Twilight Pink]

Ya...i'm worried too

Either my TRU is slacking off with the reset. (I went today and the place looked like total trash...but I did get Daring Poo Do)

Other than that, my ebay shopping list looks like it maybe growing :/

-EQG Sapphire Shores, Cheerilee, Amethyst Star (not sure if Bon Bon and Lyra are still in stores... only spotted them in 1 Walmart in my area..)
-Mane-iac
-Goth Lolita ponies (I know i'm alittle late on that...)
-Flower Power TRU exclusive set
-Maude Pie
-Walmart Friendship BB collection

*sigh* What is going on? What is this madness?  Why can't exclusives be evenly distributed and non exclusives be evenly distributed?

Heh, I'm sure it'll be fine... haven't seen Maud yet though, but maybe I'll stop in at my local TRU tomorrow and see what I can see. Right now they've been slow on new stuff. The only new thing we've gotten besides Daring Do is the Apple Family stuff, and not even all of that. It's kind of sporadic.

We are hearing about some releases quite a bit ahead of when they are probably going to be expected in stores so thats perhaps why things have not shown up in store as yet?

Either way - these are cute!

[Shimmer Mist]

My TRU only had Daring Do and the talking Celestia as well. I asked about the set with the playfuls but they said they weren't in stock. >:
