    Today in my local ASDA (Thornaby branch) I spotted the third wave of blindbag ponies and naturally like the pony fuelled magpie that I am I bought the entire display box.

    Not a single double in the entire lot, really nice figs and this is the first time Iv actiually seen them in Britain with my own eyes so get out to your local Tesco and ASDA but expect to do a bit of hunting because from what Iv heard only some of the ASDA stores actually have them.

    Here in the US they released wave 1.

    My friends raided all the stores here near our area where I live and well I'm getting a Glitter RD and TS from them, since I found a Glitter PP at one store.

    Hurray for blind bags and their ID # on the back of each bag!

    We need BlindBag seeking radars to fit to our Bronymobiles to make finding these ponies easier LOL

    My dad caught me with all the blindbags in my arms, if he thinks Im mad as a hatter now just wait til he sees the giant Octavia plushie I won on Ebay ;)

    I got plenty of ponies on display in my room its just that my family never goes in there, its to overfilled with antique toys, steam engines, WW2 memorabilia and anything else I find interesting for them to warrant it safe enough to actually risk entering :)
    I honestly never thought Id see a ponie toy display share the same shelf as a collection of British issue bayonets and a WW2 German helmet til today when I got my blindbags LOL

    I actually found a place that's selling blindbags, I will get some soon:smile:.

    By the way, is it any way to predict what pony is in which bag?

    Pleb... that word has such a funny inside joke linked to it for me... :')
    Ahhh, good times.

    Screw the code sheet! All I want to know is:

    #2 = Rarity
    #18 = Glow-in-the-dark Rarity

    Then again, after that. I'll want all of them. ._.

    Have now been to four Asda's and found four blind bags, in total. Anyone know Central Scotland Asda's that still have the wave 3 blind bags? View attachment 2947

    Sorry to hear your having trouble finding them, Iv found them in every local ASDA including ASDA GEORGES and now have a full set of wave 3, its quite possible that another Brony is beating you to them, its might be worth asking the staff when they will get another shipment and turning up on that morning to beat the other Bronies.

    Look at me, I spent ridiculous amounts of money for the special edition ones in Wave 3 to be sent over here to the US.

    Currently just have Twilight for now. Waiting on Rarity and Pinkie Pie.

    This is how much I spent on Twi.

    O.O ASDA is now my favourite supermarket. I presume these are at all shops? If it's only at select shops I might be a bit stuffed because Stoke never gets anything special :sigh:
