Help With MLP Variants AGAIN....PLEASE!!!

Postby **TulaBug** » Fri Sep 27, 2013 10:28 pm

The new My Little Pony DJ PON-3 and Octavia Vinyl Figures will be in the Hot Topic stores soon. Each pony has a crystal variant that myself and many other funatics would love to have. We all know how hard they are to get. I was hoping that we could all band together as we have before and get them into the hands of as many funatics as we can.

If you are willing to help I will call your stores and locate the ponies and ask the store to hold them. It will be ready for you to pick up. Just let me know what area you live in or what Hot Topic Stores you can go to and I will do all the legwork.

More than one helper is appreciated. Last time I called stores in 5 states and only found one variant.

Please make sure I have you on the list for needing them so I know how many we are looking for!!!

Thanks in advance for any help!!!!

BTW, I put this in "Other Discussions" for the viewing coverage...

Stacey, can you put me down for DJ Pon-3. And if you call the stores in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area, I can pick up any crystal figures that they have available.

Thank you!

Postby **marshmellow27** » Fri Sep 27, 2013 10:49 pm

I can. Topeka, Manhattan, Lawrence, ks

Postby **jmd9868** » Fri Sep 27, 2013 10:54 pm

I will look around here, but I would also like to be added to the list just in case. Last time I thought I'd be able to get both, but I only managed to get Pinkie Pie. Thanks!

Postby **LION0371** » Fri Sep 27, 2013 11:20 pm

COUNT ME IN FOR BOTH!!! Please and Thank you. And I as well have already put the word to my help.

Postby **tabby1375** » Fri Sep 27, 2013 11:45 pm

Thanks Stacey! Yes I will be in need of both.
And I will be on top of my local stores like usual. I was actually in hot topic today and they changed their walls around. It used to be that all the collectibles were all together.. Now they are scattered so it will be harder to find.

Postby **Avetts** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 1:38 am

I would also like both please. I literally just "finished" getting the other ones the day before these popped up! LOL
I can go to my local shop, also if you would like to call HTs in North Carolina from Greensboro, Raleigh and Greenville areas, I have some people that can pick them up for me to ship to anyone who needs it.... though it does seem like there are a lot of Bro-nies around here and I have yet to see any sparklies.

Postby **beckysaurus** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 1:58 am

I would also love both! I will keep an eye out as far as I can see for extras. Thanks Stacey for putting this together.

Postby **ShoMeNodder** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 8:30 am

Thanks again Stacey !

Postby **tabby1375** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 11:32 am

has anyone heard when the stores will actually begin to see these arrive?

Postby **wolverinert68** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 11:44 am

I would like to be on the list for both please. and I am more than willing to go looking and calling here in the AZ. Also,if anyone finds te crystal fluttershy, Jenny would be eternally grateful.

Postby **HiMyNameIsSean** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 12:09 pm

Could you put me on the list for both again Stacey please?
I'll also be going/calling stores around my area.

Thanks!

Postby **TheJobaFett** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 12:10 pm

I can be a hunter again... Woodbridge and Fredericksburg VA... And maybe Annapolis MD if a non-funatic friend has some free time.

I can help with looking. Riverside and San Bernardino, Ca.

Postby **NightmareMermaid** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 1:21 pm

I will keep a look out at my store and let you know if I find any.

Postby **Cristina** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 2:30 pm

I'll check with the Hot Topics over here & see what I can find. I'm thinking maybe towards the end of next week based on the release date on the website? They were in the stores a little earlier with the last set of ponies.

Postby **Kitzka** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 4:06 pm

These are suppose to ship out 10/9 (my wedding anniversary). If it follows suit like last time these will be in store the Friday or Saturday before the release date which is a Wednesday. So I'm guessing this Friday is when we should start looking and calling. There are 3 stores in my area and I will be calling. Last time my stores didn't get any of the chases. So fingers crossed.

I hope after this we get some pony slow down. I need time to recover! Lol

When i was a teenager, we used to do a dance called the pony...just felt like mentioning that.

Postby **BBRX807** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 4:32 pm

I also can help look.

First Colony Mall (281) 313-5334
Katy Mills Mall (281) 644-6440
Memorial City Mall (713) 647-9625
Galleria Mall (713) 850-9030

Postby **Poncho Pete** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 4:36 pm

Does this sound familar, Carol?

The Pony per wikipedia:

The beat is 1&2, 3&4, etc. In the dance the feet are kept comfortably together, while various arm and hand motions are possible. Movement around the dance floor may occur, but there is no line-of-dance. Couples, who generally face each other, do not touch[1] and turns and chase positions are possible.

Reading about a dance is not the same as watching.

Ernie already vouched for DFW but Im glad to help out too. Also looking for both crystals please

Postby **TulaBug** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 8:39 pm

Tabby, thanks so much for helping me out. I didn't realize that anyone had noticed what I had been going through. Hopefully everything is under control for now.

Rob, you live awfully close to where I grew up in Rockland County & NYC. My sister lives in Nanuet...Is there a Hot Topic in the Palisades Center? What is even funnier is I was just in the Paramus Mall last weekend.

The manager in my Hot Topic is a sweetheart. As soon as the variants come in she will hold all of them for me and call me. Then she will call all my area store and have those stores hold what they have. That is always a great start. As soon as we have any sighting someone will post and we can go hunting!!!

Postby **mikem** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 8:40 pm

I will help get them. I can do the legwork.

Postby **ShoMeNodder** » Sat Sep 28, 2013 8:43 pm

That is cool of your HT manager, and i think a lot of people noticed how hard you have worked on organizing the hunt.

Yes, there is one in the Palisades Center. That's the furthest of the three from me. About 25-30 minutes. Which mall in Paramus did you go to? There's Garden State Plaza and also Paramus Park, but only Garden State has a hot topic. Both are only about 5 minutes from me, so you were pretty much in my backyard.

Rob- you must live close to me! Those are my closest stores. I also venture to rockaway since it's close to where Kailey dances.

Love having funatics close by!

omg Stacey I can't believe I've been absent for a few days, missed out on even seeing there were new ponies until today! and haven't been put on this list to find/get variants.

If I'm not too late you know I really need to make sure I get those variants....my ponies aren't complete without them. PLEASE HELP! lol
