This specific one was found at a Toys R' Us in Tuscon, Arizona.
I'm not sure if every Toys R' Us has them right now, but it might be worth it to give them a call at the very least.
Thanks to Asia for the heads up!

My Toys r us has them. About to spend all my money on this. Fukken awesome
YES. *Runs to Toys 'R Us at 10 PM*
Also, LOL @Anonymous fail.
>looks like Fluttershy has Dash-mane
WUT
WHY THANK YOU, THISNANMEISNOTPROFANE
Hm. I'll head over the check on Saturday.
I was so excited when I found it =D
HOW MUCH?
*is now really excited to get paid tomorrow*
Yup, here they come. I haven't seen them at any of the Toys R Us I've been to recently. But I'm sure they will start springing up in more and more stores.
I live in Tucson, and checked Toysrus two days ago! Dangnabit!
It's good to know we have the Great Eastern Continent looking out for us.
Rollin' for MA, come on Massachusetts :O
I mistook Peachy for Pinkie again.
OH MY SCIENCE DO WANT. how many monies do i have to throw at the cashier to get this?
Come on New Hampshire Toys R' Us. Don't fail me now!
@Anonymous
$20
They're new! They're shiny!
Trample the homeless in your rush to get them!!!
Ponies? In MY Tucson? As Fluttershy once said...
'yay'. Whoever found this, which Toys R Us was this? The one on Broadway? Tell me!
Wow, thanks, Asia!
(sorry about the overpopulation)
@Asia
*looks in wallet and only has $19*
...
...
...
OH CELESTIA WHY?
I didn't see anything of the sort when I was there Sunday.
Then again, they said they were waiting on the pillows to come-in, too.
Do they sell them at the website?
Hummm... It would be cooler if they had Scootaloo and the Cutie Mark Crusaders.
About %20 cooler. Yeah.
omg this is down my street!! Why must i have no money? >.<
Was just at Toys R Us yesterday here in PA and they didn't have them. =\
Oh. Wow. That is awesome. But did it have to be right after I bought my target set?
Huzzah! Wait, do I even live near a Toys R Us?
...I shall investigate!
Last!!
If someone manages to get one of these, get it up on eBay with international shipping.. I'll go to $70 inc.shipping!
I feel this would be an appropriate time to mention that Amazon is currently selling blind bags.
So twilight is the only pony that doesn't have recolors of other ponys? How hard would it be to make each one individual, and charge a couple bucks more. I do like these, but poor fluttershy... She deserves better than just a rehash of dash with different colors.
That fluttershys a spy!
only 20$... thats IT?!
holly celestia i just shat rainbow colored bricks
zellers in canada has been carrying them individually in those packages seen in the box for the past.. year.
Dammit I LIVED in Tucson until just a few months ago.
I want these so badly.
Anyone have the item number for this?
SO MANY THINGS I NEED TO OWN.
Closest Toys R Us is like 3 hours away ._. I don't think I want to drive that far for a store that *might* have it. Do they have these at Wal*Marts?
@Anonymous
Given that it says "Only at Toys"R"Us" on the box...
@DJ Midli
They do?? That would be *so* *awesome*!
Don't want ....... need.
Thanks DJ Midli. I have been waiting for the set. I am lazy and don't want to buy all the sets.
Okay, Reno. Time to start selling things I need, RIGHT NOW.
HORYSHET
all six of the main cast in one package, and they look reasonably like the show?! plus I could give the shitty re-colors to my nieces
FINALLY! Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees
OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD.
F#$K. I was just next to a toys r us earlier today. Would have stopped in to check if I had known :|
Cant decide if i want these, or ones that have brushable manes on em. How about... both! Tomorrow i begin my search for this after work.
Man, instead of the palette swaps, they should have had the CMC, a mini celestia, luna, and... TRIXIE!
Insta buy. Otherwise I just want the mane 6.
@The Brony Express
Yup
Oh hecks yes. I'll have to call my local Toys R Us in the morning to see if they have it... I hope they do! :D
@Anonymous
SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE but this
Twilight: Yes yes yes yes!
And just in time for my birthday to boot ^^
These MUST come to Canada! I need Fluttershy (even with Dash hair) to finish the mane 6. Then I can mod the rest into background and Fallout: Equestria ponies!
went to toys R Us in Phoenix Arizona recently, and only found the rooted hair toys. Not there yet, but they should likely be here within a month...
Go driver's license!
I've got the car tomorrow, but my local Toys R Us is extremely hit or miss. Since the site doesn't seem to list it yet, there's only one way to find out... (Also, *brohoof* to whoever reviewed the Pinkie plushie and actually put Ponyville, Equestria in for location, I loled)
The Toys 'R Us and Targets around here had very little stock of anything when I went and checked this past weekend, guess I'll just have to keep crossing my fingers because this is exactly what I was looking for.
You do realize he is being sarcastic?
I want this badly. Sadly, I have no idea where a Toys R' Us is located in Los Angeles... Do they take online orders?
@ everyone who commented, yes, however their stock is running near the end of its line, only the smaller/why the hell is there a zellers here still have some stock, and I have NEVER seen a fluttershy. they are selling them for 3.99 each, so in retrospect you may as well just get the 20 dollar toys r us box
And im going to speak from an ottawa perspective here, I did some pony hunting, Walmarts have absolutely nothing except a new playset, literally all their pegs are empty with the exception at Kanata wal-mart that has some of the new wave 3's. Toys R Us is carrying regular stock of the brushables however the one i checked today was out of the celestia box set. Winners is randomly carrying the lightup ponies(only confirmed this for the south keys location)
however NOWHERE. In canada is carrying any of the new stuff the states is getting at least when i checked, No princess luna, no pony blanket, and no pony pillows have migrated up to Canada.
@Asia
Could you possibly list the UPC barcode and/or the item number listed on the receipt? Methinks it'd make the hunt a bit less of a hassle... ;)
My hand... it shakes with anticipation! So jelly!
Tuscon broneis untie
There needs to be sets of the side characters. DJ P0N-3 with turntables that play remixes of the songs in the show; Ditzy (derpy) and Dinky with power muffin and delivery truck full of stuff; Lyra and BonBon with action bench. Plus, of course, a Fluttershy plushie that, when you squeeze her, says 'yay' or 'woohoo'.
@Silver Glade
Yes, please if someone who bought it could give us the item number that would be excellent. The first thing the person asked when I called TRU and asked if they had it in stock was "do you have the item number?" When I told them no, they basically said they couldn't help me without it, and to get the item number from the website and call back. (It was a fairly rude response but whateva) - So I drove there only to discover they didn't have it :(
I'll try again next week or so I guess.
I shame myself to even call myself a brony having only one MLP:FIM toy :( but that may change very soon as i do live here in Tucson and am actually heading into town tomorrow x3
Two things make me depressed about these new "clear bag / box" ponies. One is Fluttershy, WHY :((((((, and two is, why did they decide to randomly recolor them and make non-show related ponies out of nothing. Atleast give them the same colors as the background ponies and let us use our imaginations like we have to with Fluttershy. It is really that hard to make one more mold with Fluttershys hair? Also If they had Blindbag background ponies (show accurate) I would gladly pay 8-10 dollars for a plastic toy that would cost 10 cents to produce. Come on hasbro get your stuff together.
One more note, We should buy only buy Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, And Pinkie Pie, and none others (sorry fluttershy) To show hasbro that we only want Show related items. Otherwise they wont stop doing what they are doing because they know they will still get money either way.
@Blur
I need this!
When will Fluttershy not be a recolor of RainbowDash?
*fangirl squeal*
Those look so much better than the current ones i have seen
they look like G4 Ponies not G3 recoloured to look like Rainbow Dash or whatever
Fluttershy with the wrong hair, Applejack without a hat.. Hasbro could make a TON more money on these things if they knew how to properly take advantage of our demographic by putting a little more effort in and charging a little more to compensate. We're startlingly close to the demographic that pays $60-$100 for anime figurines, after all.
Massive amounts of ponies? Awesome.
20 bucks? Even more awesome.
Am I going to buy this?
Yes.
Hell yes.
Hell.
Fucking.
Yes.
....So I work at TRU and I can find the item numbers. If anyone gets it first post it otherwise I will get them tomorrow and put them up. The one thing that sucks is it's not an online order through the site, but you can ask the customer service rep to see if they can do an "SOS" order. Sometimes stores get special warehouse lists that have items not found online or in store which can be found through an "SOS" order. If that doesn't work you can ask to see if another TRU store carries it and if so see if they can do a store to store transfer. Not all hope is lost. And if you are calling the best time to call is about twenty minutes after the store opens but avoid Fri-Sun. Stores are normally busy beyond belief during the weekends and most likely will be on hold for 10-20 mins as they attend to in store customers. Store shipments are random and they don't know exactly whats coming so asking about that is pointless. I hope this helps somewhat.
Guess I know what I'm doing tomorrow after I pick up my paycheck.
Dang, now I have to re-prioritize my shopping list for the week.
Oh man, I really hope I can find these around here and get a Dash in time to catch an autograph at this weekend's Hey Ocean concert.
@Anonymous
She's far too shy to speak up for her own character model.
"Excuse me, uhm, Hasbro?"
"Yes, Flutterby? What is it?"
"It's, um... Fluttershy... And I was wondering... if it wouldn't be too much of a problem... if I could maybe have my own *mumble*..."
"I'm sorry dear, what is that?"
"I was wondering if I could have my own *squeaky mumble*..."
"I think you'll have to speak up, Shutterfly."
"*squeak*"
Been to the Chadstone TRU and Kmarts (Melbourne) but no luck with this or any blind bags, will check out the Westfield TRU doncaster and possibly Knox City for any bronies down under
Y U NO HAVE THEM ONLINE
Just got back from a TRU run, but had no luck. Not surprised though, since I'm in Florida. Since all this merch arrives from China, it naturally shows up in west coast stores first. Once someone gets the item number it'll be a lot easier to harass my local store by phone, till they get them in.
@Anonymous
I'm in Tempe! *Arizona high-five*
I totally want/need these, but I do not want Fluttershy. The other ones look pretty good, but why can't they create an actual Fluttershy? It's not hard, Hasbro! I need a Fluttershy with her mane and a less...Dash-y expression on her face. -.-
@Anonymous
And don't forget...
"Betcha can't beat me! SQUEEE!"
Item number is all we need, come on, I wish I could be part of the solution, but someone has to have bought it by now, stop slacking off and put the number up!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Just got it this morning
idk what the Item No. is but the only number on the receipt is 653569678953? hope that helps theyre called MLP Kiosk Pony 19.99+tax
happy hunting bronies /)^3^(\
W00t! Another good thing about working for TRU. I'll get dibs on this set when it comes in.8D
@Anonymous soooo. GET BACK¡ GET BACK! GET BACK TO WHERE YOU ONE BELONGED
Item Number has been found!
The TRU Item Number is 756981
The UPC is 653569678953
and the name is MLP Kiosk Pony, retailing at 19.99 plus tax.
I wish this could be voted up, but as it is, this is the information. I found no luck calling my TRU's, but hopefully this will help somepony.
I don't have any official pony merch at the moment, but I think I would probably buy this set if I found it here in Australia.
It would be nice if Fluttershy looked more accurate, though.
If there is ANYthing pony related i should get, it will be this.
although, i'd be just fine with the mane 6... who are the recolors again?
@Vintage VCR It really helped me out. Thank you very much!
I checked a TRU this morning in Ohio. Nothin'... Anybody put this on eBay yet?
why must i be broke......
i can't handle it!!!! Can anypony help poor Russian brony with buying this stuff? (problems only with deliver)?
I LIVE IN ARIZONA BUT NOT NEAR ENOUGH TO TUCSON!
BAH MUST CALL UPON AZ FRIENDS IN OTHER CITIES!
@Vanzer87
http://ponyorders.wordpress.com will order SOME of the toys, and mail them worldwide.
My local Toys'R'Us in Lynnwood, WA says that this region (WA and OR) draw their stock from California warehouses, and the California warehouses don't even have them yet. They expect local WA stores to get their first shipments in 2-3 weeks.
Ahaha... so in making my local rounds, hunting for this kiosk set, I went to the Milford CT store yesterday. It wasn't on the shelves so I went to customer service, and handed the nice lady a slip of paper with the item's name and number. Without looking at her computer, she sighs and hands it back to me. Apparently I was the third person to ask her about this kiosk set *that day alone*, and no, she already checked, no stores in the region have it.
Disappointed that so many of us are still empty handed, but I'm loving the persistence of My Little Bronies :P
