Desperately Searching for Glitter Ponies

[XXDCXBATMAN]

Is it possible the glitters will be sold on hot topic separately more expensive with a limited quantity online only?

I highly doubt it. With chases, usually the distributor (Funko), won't allow the seller (HT) to sell them separate, there are ways to get around it, for example, Gamestop sells their Skylanders chases in bundles to get rid of the ones nobody buys. But I think it's unlikely.

Hmm interesting, well how come no glitters have shown up anywhere online, instagram, forums, etc this has never happened before? The only ones we have seen were at the Funko HQ right?

Maybe they'll be exclusives. Possibly for NYCC?

It is pretty weird. But no one knew they were even shipped to HT yet. And it is still weird that HT never put them online, IMO. All we can do is wait and pray we have a chance at getting them.

So much bizarre stuff going on! Very weird I appreciate the info you got though, I'm thinking they are not online at HT because they have hot cash going on, they used to post ponies during hot cash, but seems like they don't like posting them during hot cash anymore it ends Tuesday so perhaps they will list them online Wednesday?

But I have been checking everyday and they didn't list them at all. I expect HT to list the ponies at least a month before and give a street date. That did not happen. I truly believe that they are not listed online so people cannot buy them in quantity to get a glitter and then make a large return of the regulars in the store. But what do I know.

Yea thats what I was thinking, but I know they don't allow returns like that so why would it matter? I tried asking Hot Topic about it, the person I talked to didn't know but was going to get back to me. So well see I guess..

I don't buy in bulk online but I bought extra for people overseas and then they decided not to take them. HT allowed me to return the ponies.

I think they don't allow over four returns of the same, was it more than four? Under four they don't mind.

I think it was 3.

No luck here in NJ. I'm assuming that they won't roll out to the East Coast for awhile. Usually a week or more once they hit the West. I'll continue to keep an eye out for them!

[frankusho]

I asked around and my HT had no idea about them. Also... glitter Cadance can be taken off my want list. I traded a flocked Snuffleupagus for her today.

[Arloe8]

Congrats Frank!

[missauru]

Went to a different HT, way out of the way in another town cause I was in the area, and they had ONE applebloom non glitter. Someone took it off the shelf before I got a good look at it but she is bigger than I expected! Anyway, point is they are appearing on the east coast cause thats where I am!

[ShoMeNodder]

Grats Frank !

[frankusho]

Thanks all! One less pony to worry about before the new wave hits.

[MrBear]

I was hoping these would be online before hot cash ended. o.x I am not too interested in the crystal variants but want the regular ones. Prototypes have shown up of Cheese Sandwich, Queen Chrysalis, and Maud Pie. I wonder how long before those hit retail?

[RogueSolo]

My store had at least one new pony in today, but no crystals. A good sign they're getting to the east coast already though.

[TulaBug]

Found Apple Bloom today. No glitter.

[LilPnay]

Called all my HTs today and all but 3 got in Apple Bloom but no glitters yet

[kitkats_mommy]

I called about 20 stores in my area. No one has gotten glitters. Even the one store that always gets them got zip! I'm kinda worried

No stores are getting glitters I think we can all agree on that as of now? None on ebay, no pictures on any websites/instagram. No one on here found any, I feel 98% sure they are not out yet.

Agreed

[ShoMeNodder]

Got a REGULAR apple bloom today...no glitters.

[Arloe8]

Glitters are in the wild...spotted one on FB found in Pennsylvania

[Arloe8]

If anyone is close to Pittsburgh...there is a glitter pony waiting for someone

[TulaBug]

Which store?

[AquaticNeon]

Well the glitters for Sweetie are out!!! I just got one!

I'm only a little over an hour away, can't swing it today though, bummer...Renirawr lives in that area though I do believe.

Congrats!

[wenhol8710]

Which store?

Westmoreland Mall, I just saw it on Facebook too. So close and yet so far from me.

[Arloe8]

yes that's the one!

Too far from me, too. I'm on the other side of Pittsburgh. It's over an hour away from me.

If it is too far for you then I should not make the 4 hour drive???

[renirawr]

If it is too far for you then I should not make the 4 hour drive???

Honestly, if I had the time to go out there, I would. All of this moving into a house business is just seriously cutting into my pony hunting time!

I was able to pick up a regular Sweetie Belle though, because I had to stop by the mall for something. I also have an Apple Bloom on her way to me.

I know how you feel. I have driven up to 2 hours to get for funatics. Don't tell Scotty.

4hrs is a long drive especially if there is no guarantee it will be there for you...no other PA Funatics?

At the very least I am glad the glitters are popping up. The sweetie belle glitter is so cute!
