I found Wave 1 at my Walmart today. I picked up an extra Rara in case anyone is still looking for one. I'm willing to sell for cost plus shipping. PM me if anyone is interested.  :)

Walmart?! O.O I will keep looking!! I keep hoping to find them, but Target is no use, they keep restocking the Pretzel wave! Thanks for the heads-up Ponyfan! (It's nice of you to find extras! :heart:)

I'm going to assume Walmart might pick them up for the holidays.. where in walmart exactly? Where they in the normal pony aisle or in a mine aisle display/bin?

They were in the normal pony aisle, mixed in with Cutie Mark Magic ponies.  I saw a pearly Fluttershy and had to dig under several other ponies to find the rest of wave 1. :)  I was really surprised to see them because that Walmart is terrible about getting new stuff.

My extra Rara is on hold.

Heads up, if anyone is insterested I think the waves are actually laid out like this...

Wave 1: Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Coloratura, Starlight Glimmer
Wave 2: Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle, Pretzel, Cherry Berry
Wave 3: Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle, Apple Jack, Meadow Flower
Wave 4: Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Sapphire Joy, Sea Swirl

I believe this because when I found Applejack and Meadow Flower there was an overabundance of RD and Twilight, with some Pretzel and Cherry, on the shelves and no sign of Sapphire or Sea Swirl. This was in a store that I'd never seen pearlised ponies stocked in before.
Then when I found Sapphire Joy and Sea Swirl in another store that hadn't stocked pearlised ponies yet there were plenty of Pinkies and Fluttershy and no AJ or Meadow Flower.

Plus, with the way they ratio their waves, I'd estimate that (for example from what I've seen on shelves) Pinkie and Fluttershy together make up about 75% of the box and Starlight and Coloratura together are 25%. So to give children a better chance of getting their favourite main 6 from previous waves I believe they've split Wave 3, at least here in Australia it seems that way. Or stores have been getting shipments with Wave 1 & 4 in at the same time, but no 2 or 3 (bit of an odd gap). I could be wrong.  :P

Good luck everyone still hunting!  :)

I saw Wave 1 in Boswells in Oxford yesterday. They had Coloratura on the shelf.

Still only wave 1 and 2 here though. No sign of the others, though when they fix the road so that the bus can get there without doing ten diversions (sigh) I need to go back to TRU and see whether they have anything new on their shelves.

I got all of wave two at Asda on Saturday, so I'm really crossing my fingers for wave three popping up there too!

I have found about half of them now. I'm really most interested in getting the OC ponies at the moment. I figure I can always find the mane six at future yard sales. lol

I found a handful of Redhearts in Walgreens last night.  I can pick them up for people if anyone is interested.

I found Coluratura at Dollar General with the rest of Wave 1, no sign of waves 3 and 4 for me though.

I've seen wave 1 at target, so perhaps the distribution is finally starting to normalize.
