What will the Target/Toys R Us/ Wal-mart exclusives be???
« on: May 30, 2016, 06:43:31 AM »
Since we have nice images of a lot of the merch coming for this fall, I wonder when we'll be seeing sneak peaks of store exclusives!
Anyone have any guesses to what they will be?

We didn't get any Wal-Mart exclusives last year, so honestly I don't think they will continue their "Through the Mirror Line"...

Toys R Us always has an exclusive multi-pack of brushables, a talking princess, and some dolls/Fashion styles. What do you think they will be this year? I'm thinking a Luna or Twilight in the talking Princess size because who else do they have?

And Target is completely random every year. I LOVED the Canterlot line in 2012 and hope they have something cool and glittery like that! I just want at least one more character from them.

What do you guys think?  :blink:

In the past, we saw the TRU exclusives at the NY toy fair.  Since we didn't see any this year, there's a chance that TRU isn't going to do any this year.  If that's the case, it's probably because they shot themselves in the foot by doing two years of ponies covered over by outrageous designs that turned off a lot of people.  Though this past year they did at least use new characters instead of another release of the mane 6.

I agree that the costumed ponies are probably Target's since they are very similar to the way the Power Ponies are done.

I don't know about Walmart but I'm not expecting anything interesting if they do have something.

I don't think we saw last years' at the toy fair? I seem to remember them turning up on taobao and ebay first, but I could be wrong. But yeah, it's entirely possible they'll forego exclusives this year. I don't know how well the line has been selling since they switched from favorites collection to ponymania.

I can't see them not doing exclusives at all but it is possible there will be less or they will change the format. Like maybe we won't get a big pack but a smaller pack instead.

Aren't the pops the only exclusives for the moment?

For now. We are speculating what else could appear.
