Crystal Ponies Now at Toys R' Us

The ridiculously rare crystal Pinkie pie and Rainbow Dash are now showing up at Toys R' Us.   These things are known for going for crazy prices on Ebay, so it's nice to see them finally fully available!

This particular set was located in Florence, KY.  Hopefully this means the rest of the mane 6 are on the way.  Dash and Pinkie are neat, but I want to complete the set!

For those wondering what these even are, I did a review on the pair a few months ago.  Check it out here!

Thanks to J Powers for the heads up!

Just wanted to say that.

Videogame9 said...

Crystal ponies?

Rare?

I WANT IT.

Bombedrumbum said...

They cost a TON on ebay, and theyre only $5.49 here?!?! MUST. HAVE. TOYS!!!

Bombedrumbum said...

What is it with all of the firsters nowadays? There used to be posts with no comments on them whatsoever, and now it seems as though all a lot of people care about is getting a comment in before everybody else

Videogame9 said...

Oh, and the counter's still broken.

Did it overload or something?

ToonNinja said...

Am... Am I...?


...Yeah, I'm giggling at the thought of having a rare My Little Pony toy. I love this fandom, but there are moments that I kind of realize how batsh*t insane I've apparently gone since joining.

Welp, guess I'm going to Toys R Us tomorrow.

DJ Kat said...

@ToonNinja

At least you weren't throwing money at the screen on reflex.

I want those now! >:(

SorinLion said...

Funny this was posted now, just picked up both earlier today. They're nice. First bit of pony swag for me. :D

wackyteen said...

i wish i lived closer to stores and had money.

Baron said...

I want it!
I need it!
I really like their manes!

*Immediately grabs bicycle for trip to Toys-R-Us*

Scribbles said...

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF YEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS

I came SO close to buying those rediculously expensive ebay ponies so many times. Now I can get my own!

Erica Lee said...

Awww now there is one thing about thing about living in Kentucky! Or the fact I am not the only brony in KY!

DJ-Pinkamina said...

Heh, and just a note i feel lucky now XD and i hope everypony's Toys R Us has them in stock :D

Sarah said...

Oooh. I've been looking for a good Pony key chain. Does anyone know how these hold up? I'm pretty rough on my keys. My purse is a black hole.

Jelfes said...

Cool, I want to get myself some pony paraphernalia, but that'll likely be in the far future.

Gypsy said...

I've had my crystal pinkie pie for like 4 months, i might go to toysrus for RD though

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@Erica Lee Hah, i thought i was the only KY brony!! We should set up a meet up or something!

SorinLion said...

Wish they had Fluttershy. :(

Pinkie Pie said...

Toys R' Us! I'm coming for you, so hold onto your pie tins!

SorinLion said...

@Sarah Pinkie Pie is more solid feeling than the Rainbow Dash one. RD's wings and tail feel like they might wear out easy since they stick out more.

DJ-Pinkamina said...

... i just now figured out how to legit reply to people on here... i feel dumb now :P

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@ToonNinja dont feel bad, i literally started SCREAMING and jumping up and down when i saw them, my cousin who was with me thought something was wrong XD and when he saw that it was just MLP junk he just stared at me!!

Erica Lee said...

@DJ-Pinkamina I know! Sadly that would be about a 3 hour drive!

Harwick said...

Wait... Seriously? These things have been in stock at my local Five Below for months now. Someone should have told me I could flip them for big bucks on eBay.

richfiles said...

Y U no Toys-R-Us B local!!!

FFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!

Sometimes I hate there not being any decent stores nearby, but I'd still hate to live in a larger city anyway.

Woof Hooves said...

ive been watching these on ebay waiting for the price to hopefully come down...since the other blind bag stuff showed up i figured these would..it was just a matter of time!!!!!..nother trip to TRU

im still wondering if there is such a thing as a "full set" of the fashion ones....

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@Erica Lee oh, that sucks! maybe the meet up could be somewhere in between, lol sorry i just think a brony meet-up would be like, the funnest thing EVER

Susan said...

I found them at the TRU is Gainesville, Florida. They first rang up for $65.88 each, but after a price check I got one of each for $5.49.

Erica Lee said...

@DJ-Pinkamina I know it! Maybe around Lexington would be a good place

Floof Cat said...

I don't like bilking people out of money. These things are COMMON in Stop and Shop supermarkets in Connecticut.l

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@Erica Lee yeah! That could work!! Maybe hah, i'd have to talk the idea over with my parents, but they'd most likely be fine with the idea :D

hypnotix666 said...

These are great but I am too shy to go and buy these I dont know of any other bronies where I live

Erica Lee said...

@DJ-Pinkamina Thinkg isI jusst dontknow when will be the next time I will be up there haha xD

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@hypnotix666 don't be worried about it, i was the same way but then something just clicked and i was able to say "Screw it! I'm a proud brony, and i'm getting me some merch!" plus half the time the cashiers really dont give a crap :P

VGmaster78 said...

Crystal Ponies in my state? Cool.

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@VGmaster78 huh, another Kentucky brony... we're more popular here than i thought :P

Erica Lee said...

@DJ-Pinkamina But hey atleast now I know I am not the only brony in the state!

Samuel7897 said...

As soon as I get my paypal account in order I will scour ebay for these. Thank you lack of toy stores in my area >:(

Discord said...

@Bombedrumbum

I think I may have caused this...

Erica Lee said...

And then another KY brony.... today is a good day!

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@Erica Lee yeah haha same here :) Kentucky Bronies FTW!

Harwick said...

@hypnotix666

Hey, it's close enough to Christmas that you should be able to buy most anything without people assuming it's for yourself, if you're worried about being judged.

In truth though, I buy stuff for various family members all year round, so I don't even give a thought to what it looks like when I purchase much of anything any longer.

hypnotix666 said...

@DJ-PinkaminaYah I have purchased shirts and apparel from hot topics and from welovefine.com but toys are different for some reason. I live in the Shenandoah valley in virginia next to woodstock and as I said it would be nice if I had some people to relate to down here. But oh well

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@hypnotix666 yeah haha, i actually thought purchasing shirts was more embarrassing (maybe thats because i'm female tho lol, or cause the toys can be for relatives) but who knows, there COULD be bronies where you lived.. i didnt know there we're bronies here (besides one of my best friends in school) but ever since this i've discovered there are bronies here

hypnotix666 said...

Well my bronys thanks for the support and info
Brohoof to all and to all a goodnight / morning. (depending where you live lol)

Erica Lee said...

@DJ-Pinkamina So do tell, did you buy these too crystal ponies?

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@hypnotix666 no problem :) we ARE bronies after all, its our job to love and tolerate :) and brohoof right back :)

hypnotix666 said...

Well I'm a 19yr old guy in a 80s hair metal / hard rock band and my band mates are not too keen on ponies but what can I say haters gonna hate :p

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@Erica Lee heck yes!! i bought 3, two for me and one for a friend of mine! I could not pass them up!! Omg, it was too funny tho i was with my older cousin , he was a couple aisles away, and he heard me say "OMG!!!!" all the way back where he was, and he thought that i was in trouble or something, so he was like "WHATS WRONG?!!?" when he saw that i was just flipping out over ponies he just looked at me like i was loco in the coco!

Nimbus the Unicorn said...

I don't usually buy the toys, but this looks pretty awesome! Imma check it out ASAP!

Erica Lee said...

@DJ-Pinkamina Well good for you! I am stuck pony shopping in walmart :/ They need more pony stuff

Fett5 said...

Sweet Mother of Gawd...

I live in Kentucky...
Not that far away from Florence...

Where are my car keys?

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@Erica Lee yeah, wal*mart doesnt have the best pony supply... Target is good for MLP merch, and there's always on-line :) just a question, do you have a dA (deviantART) or YouTube account?? So we keep in touch and try and make that meet-up possible

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@Fett5
Another kentucky brony!!! this is aweosme! They had plenty in stock, so Celestia Speed brony!!!

VGmaster78 said...

Rainbow Dash and the Kingdom of the Crystal Ponies

Erica Lee said...

@Fett5 OMG another KY Brony! : D

@DJ-Pinkamina Yeah I have a dA (kabuto--stalker)

hypnotix666 said...

My band didnt know it but I tricked them in to learning a rock balled version of winter wrap up and avast fluttershys plot

Fett5 said...

@DJ-Pinkamina

Im not alone! Although i'm probably the only brony in my hometown, if i said I was going to toys r us to buy a Crystal Rainbow Dash my friends would probably look at me and back away slowly

Bombedrumbum said...

@Discord no.......people were doing it before you

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@Fett5 lol, i don't live in Florence either i'm close, well obviously if i'm able to go to the TRU there im close to the town (if we live in the same town i will like EXPLODE!!) and i actually know one other brony (it was cool cause we were friends even before ponies!) but other than that, i know no other bronies IRL

Fett5 said...

I know none, but now that I think about it, one of my friends seems to make a lot of Fluttershy references....

Investigation time!

It is sad that this is a usually looked down upon fandom.

JABgamer said...

I actually had a Five Below near me, and I bought the Rainbow Dash one.

Still have it!

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@Fett5 lol if he makes references then he's probably a brony.. the best thing to do is if you think he makes a reference, reply with another quote!! and lol, i think everyone did before becoming one, i didnt look down on us per say, i just didnt give a crap XD

Fallin' Winter said...

Rare? Huh, if I knew that I would've bought more of them...I found them really easily how long ago here in Hawaii. I've got a Pinkie and Rainbow Dash just in case I ever feel like switching them every so often.

Fett5 said...

@DJ-Pinkamina I usually respond with a "Y U NO" guy type of saying, since we both like memes. It make me laugh at his rage.

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@Fett5 lol memes FTW!!! and do you have a dA (deviantART) account so we can stop spamming the comment page XD

Fett5 said...

@Dj-pinkamina I do but i prefer youtube, but still don't upload anything anyways cause I am artistically retarded, i always preferred writing to drawing.

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@Fett5 ok, i have a YouTube too (SuperCartoonAddict) so thats fine too XD and i'm the same way, execept i cant write either, i prefer to make CMV's!

Fett5 said...

@Dj-pinkamina Lol, My youtube acc is wesinator123 (spur of the moment account name that came from a childhood nickname my bro gave me) I have regretted it ever since haha :p

Nope said...

Confirmed. Bought Pinkie last night. Holy crap that plastic's odor like to knock me on my ass. Let it air out a little while before letting it get near your nose >_< . I dig the effect of Pinkie's coif draped over her right eye. I normally carry my keys in my front pocket so her size will make that difficult. Screw that; I will suffer for pocket Pinkie Pie!

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@Fett5 ok lol, i sent a request haha

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@Nope IKR!! They do smell terrible, i think its worth it tho!

VGmaster78 said...

My youtube is TheVGMaster78 if you want to chat it up with me.

SorinLion said...

@Nope I kinda like the new plastic smell. Maybe thats because I used to machine plastics on regular basis at work. :p

NewbishDM said...

Better question...why does Fluttershy have a scooter?

Luna C.T said...

Wait, really? I didn't know they were rare. My Shop and Stop sells them in their toy aisle.

0da9948c-02b1-11e1-94b3-000bcdcb8a73 said...

It's actually funny. A girl at my college saw mine and asked if I could get her one. When I went back to the store where I got it, they told me they weren't restocking them because they didn't sell well enough.

Dragonstorm24 said...

rare? I feel sad for you people with a Five Below not nearby, only worth $5

jurassicsophism said...

@0da9948c-02b1-11e1-94b3-000bcdcb8a73

Woah, okay, that was weird. Guess I won't use AIM to comment here.

rottyscoots said...

ive had the pinkie pie one for about a couple monthes now,and it i got it at my grocery store haha

Octavia said...

Oh, really awesome. I've been wanting to get these. They can be had on Ebay for the retail price, or close, plus shipping sometimes. But it's cool to see them more available at bigger places now.

G3stalt said...

Shiny Ponymons? :O

JimmyNewCakes said...

Oh man, I was just there a week and a half ago! It was the only store in the entire tri-state that had TiM stickers out of about 35 stores I hit, including Colerain TRU. I'll be so mad if these didn't just come out and I just happened to miss them.

XyroTR1 said...

I have 3 RDs and 2 Pinkies... I didn't know they were going for a lot on the bay. Alas...

FlutterMagic said...

Rare? theese have been out for months now, in sweden =P

Maskerade said...

Kentucky? Only a twelve hour drive.
I'll get a trophy case somewhere along the way, too.

hikargh said...

Wow, never realized these were rare. Like previously mentioned, they've been widely available in Sweden for a while now. Nice to see everypony else can now get a Pinkie Pie or Rainbow Dash to attach to their keys.

PinkiePieInsane said...

>mfw when they have been easily available to me for several months

mewtwohavoka said...

I spotted one at a Stop and Shop (grocery store) in Massachusetts. :D It was a Rainbow Dash, and there was only one there :O (I bought it). But they might have more!

OneAndAMerf said...

I had these keychains before they were at TRU

CandyFluttershyKazama said...

I've had these at my local Five Below for months now o_o

Budgie said...

Florence?? Holy crap! BRB.

Koiris said...

I have the dashie,bought it for 7,90 euros

Managor said...

Those thing been in Finland for quite some time already.

Johuotar said...

Yeah these things are quite common in Finland, got RD one for myself.

ShortyBoo said...

I got them months ago at Five Below for $5 each. I'm just wondering when Basic Fun is going to release the rest. I saw pics from the toy show this year of Rarity, Twilight Sparkle and Applejack keychains. I'm not sure why Fluttershy keeps getting left out of everything. She's my favorite and it's bad enough she doesn't get her own mold in the blind bag figures.

Faron said...

Grabbed a set of these today at Toys R' Us just south of Atlanta. Tried the local Toys R' Us (Warner Robins, GA), but no go there.

Luna Moona said...

I dont think there are any in sac. WHY!!!! Plus I dont have any money. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

hypnotix666 said...

I just got both of them in Winchesters toys r us. at least the look more like the characters than most most of the the toys

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@hypnotix666 congrats dude! Thats awesome, how'd it go???

metalthrasher11 said...

... Just noticed this, first post ever on this site, and I see a picture from my hometown... Don't know whether to be disturbed or happy especially since it doesn't impact me as much since I'm in college in Danville KY, and I am guilty of being a brony.

hypnotix666 said...

@DJ-PinkaminaIt was interesting but all went well I also got a derpy shirt from hot topic so over all a good day.
Once again thanks for the support :)

DJ-Pinkamina said...

@hypnotix666 lol, did you run into any other bronies??? Or any "haters"... Or any cashiers that gave you odd looks?? And DUDE, they have Derpy shirts?!?!? Must. Go. To. HOT TOPIC!!! Hah, and ,once again, no problem :) I'm always ready to help/support any awesome person (excpecially if said person is a brony!)

hypnotix666 said...

@DJ-Pinkamina no I didn't encounter any haters but I might of managed to get 3 people to join the herd :) . And as for the shirt it is the red "Have a Derpy Day" shirt cause hot topic gets there shirts from WeLoveFine.com but sell them for $5.00 cheaper

iP0dJ0sh said...

I thought I was the only KY Brony! Hopefully they still have them at this location. Calling tomorrow and will let you guys know

iP0dJ0sh said...

@hypnotix666

Do they have the Wonderbolt's Biggest Fan shirt? In a XL or 2X? If you would know? :)

hypnotix666 said...

@iP0dJ0shSorry no wonderbolts shirts there but the shirts do go to 2XL at least at the Winchester hot topic but my guess they will get more shirts soon. so we can hope

Tonboko said...

I have been looking for these since the day this was first posted and have had no luck! Why did my ToysR'Us deny me crystal ponies!!! :(

iP0dJ0sh said...

Forgot to comment back but Toys R Us Florence, KY had 3 of RD and PP.. ;)

Kitana Coldfire said...

The brand-spanking new Toys R Us/Babies R Us superstore in Huntsville, AL has a pretty good pony selection, as well as a surplus of the PP crystal ponies. Oh, and they also have the pony wrapping paper.
