The Tescos over here STILL have that rainbow glittery G4 figure set (with the green boy.. Emerald Rays, I think his name is?).. they've had tons of them for years, they just can't get rid of 'em XD

I have never seen pony old stock but I found old MH stock in an Alco in a little mountain town in Colorado once including DT Ghoulia.

That rainbow like set with ponies in rainbow colours? How much do they ask for it? I might be interested.

Up here we always seem to have old stuff. Now magic message with the neckless, hair bands and so on.

My TRU has the flower fillies & Twi/Celestia and the original pink talking Celestia still.  For full price, naturally.  We never got the Nightmare Night blind bags or pearly ponies.

Back in '14 I found a first-wave Twilight Sparkle in Pittsburg, bangs and all. Needless to say I didn't leave without her. :D Sadly the store where I got her is no longer around. Ah well.

I was in my local TrU getting some last minute Christmas stuff for my son, and you know I had to look in the pony aisle. I was hoping that they would have the set with Minty in it because I knew some TrU's had them in stock. No luck on that, but to my surprise they had a bunch of Cutiemark Crusaders as flower girls on the shelves. I couldn't believe it. They came out literally years ago.

What crazy old stock have you seen in your stores?

I saw it too! I was having such a hard time getting that set years ago when it came out and now there is tons of old stock! :p

yeah same, its like they never get the good stuff in stock.

My TRU still has a lot of those sweet apple acres figures. i always thought that they were a little overpriced, and apparently other people did too because they have waay too many left in their store. I haven't seen a single GoH figure, and those are the ones that i would actually buy!

It's this one. Not sure what the current price for it is, though, sorry.

I generally do not see old stock till after Christmas at walmart.
What I've noticed from this one is that they tend to get whatever old stock they had from years ago and put is out in clearance with some of the other stuff.. That's how I got a few Breyers one year they seriously had those out in clearance after the holidays and I've never seen them out during said holidays. I won't be surprised if I see some older FiM after the holidays
My DeviantArt, why not drop by and take a look!

My Tesco still has about five of those cluttering the shelf that have been there years. I don't know how much it is (was never interested in buying it) but maybe the price is too high? Or maybe they keep getting new stock of it. Emerald Rays' cutie mark looks like the BP logo to me...

They sell for around 40 dollars on ebay tho.
