So I was in town today here in the UK & I found myself hunting for Ponies! I went to Toys R Us & 2 Tesco stores! Non had RD an AJ has no hat (boo) I did however find the attached, sadly I wasn't gonna pay £12 which is apron $15-$20, but I ALMOST did
That's like 4x as much than here in the US. It's like $5-6 USD for a brushable. I would get the mane 6...then again...I spent $60 total on 2 Custom Ponies from a brony friend I met at a meetup. (Vinyl Scratch/Derpy Hooves) I've seen that most stores I look at are lacking Rainbow Dash... :/ So I haven't bought anything else besides shirts and customs.
I'm saving up some cash so I can buy the necessary items in order to dress up as Rainbow Dash for Halloween. That said, I'm hoping to also pick up a little Pinkie Pie toy somewhere.... Zetsubou-Sensei would call this a "tidal bore", where an interest in item "b" leads to and interest in item "a", where item "a" was the origin of item "b." I love MLP:FiM, so I'm slowly becoming interested in the toys. As I was typing this, I saw a commercial for a Princess Celestia toy. The wings actually flap and stuff. -fanboy moment-
Yeah I saw PC, She was the classic Pink lol They also had light up wings. I did see a brushable Pinkie Pie, Twilight, Rarity & Apple Jack today though.
Then that pretty much is how much it's worth here too. At least you aren't spending $30 USD for a small brushable of awesomeness.
Only the Home one had SOME ponies, the one near me never has anything good......hmmm maybe I should try Morrison's I know if I came home with Ponies my misses would clip my hooves
Fluttershy was looking at me in the packet saying "well....ummm...you know I could....um....come home with you....and...errr sit on your desk?"
Yep I saw! I even saw little mini statue figures (aprox 2" tall). 5 in a pack....was missing Fluttershy...Boo!
I've been looking around all day (not much else to do when you're sick) and I found a set of 2" figures. There were four in a sealed pack, and they were: Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Pinkie Pie. My reactions were first joy (dood ponies!), then disappointment (they got Rainbow Dash's and Rarity's colors wrong...), and finally happiness (dood ponies!). I'm buying them. Now. Don't stop me.
Buy me a set. All I can afford are customs that look so awesome. On-topic: I think I should just get the mane 6 sometime...when my sister comes with me. Then it feels normal.
Customs are crazy awesome. Maybe it's a dream of mine to own brushable versions of the Mane Six, Derpy Hooves, Cherilee, DJ Pon3, and Luna. Maybe I don't have a little sister to make it feel natural... and maybe I'm gonna dream anyway. xD
