:( So yesterday was my day off..... so we drove down to town and decided to look around. Of corse BOTH Walmarts only have wave 4.... so we decided to go to the mall and see what they had.

Upon walking into Hot Topic I saw the silver blind bags and almost flipped out. I reached in and grabbed a handful ready to buy them until I saw the price.

They want $5.50 a piece for these little guys. :( I couldn't find the wave codes anywhere online so I couldn't even get the ones I realllly wanted. I tried feeling them to try to get the body poses but it still didn't narrow it down enough.

I'm pretty bummed. I adore bindbags and I hate how they've done them. It seems like our stores all ordered too many wave 4s and refuse to order others till they're all gone. When I went home for Christmas I found the dark purple ones but they were only out for like a week. Just like what happened with wave 3. :/ I found some yellows at one point but there were so few and I have never seen them there again.

Has anyone else had this frustration?
 
I'm in Australia and we seem to just have the Wave 4s around as well. But as I've only just started collecting I don't mind too much because it gives me a chance to get more of them before they disappear (have only seen them at 2 stores).

We also tend to get things a million years (slight exaggeration) after the US etc so I guess it'll be even longer before we see them here?

Hope you find them somewhere that sells them cheaper soon!
 
the same thing happened to me my walmart had 3 differnt waves one week and sold our the purple dark purple and yellow now we are back to the same old purple wish i could expand my search area but my car needs brakes
 
Well, I had wave 5 in ONE walmart long enough for me to acquire the princess trilogy and nothing else. I keep returning to this SPECIFIC one and they seemed to only order the wave 4's since! I'm like, people, everyone has this wave already! Move on!!!
 
Totally MLPMommy4Life! All my Walmart carries is Wave 4! Once I cleaned most of the box out, I come back a month later and they have a big new box full of the same ones! At one point they had two giant boxes of Wave 4 together. On a random stop by, sitting in those Wave 4 boxes were two Wave 1s!! I had never gotten any other blind bag that wasn't sparkly!!! XD Just two though... I'm not sure where they came from. My nearby Farm-and-Fleet's seasonally toy aisle had Wave 1 as well.

Sadly, if Blind Bag Ponies aren't in common, simple retail stores like Walmart, Target... they're going to charge the price higher.

Here you go, hope this helps you - Strawberryreef Wave 7. Also I do believe there is one on Equestria Daily just put out.
 
All we have here are the blue wave 4 bags. It would be nice to see a different set. :/

They are slowly trickling into Walmart. I just bought a whole box today after refusing to pay the prices at Hot Topic. I am really want wave 5 to show up again as I missed a handful of them. Our local stores are only showing wave 4s as well. I found wave 7 four hours away in our state capital.
 
Yeah I was lucky that my one target was carrying three of the waves for a short time (short at least once I was interested in collecting them) Now them and the meijer I go to have been stuck on the crystal light blue bags for awhile. And my walmart didn't have any blind bags the last time I went in there. I'll be happy once they move onto the next wave after the crystal ponies. Wave 6 only showed up with one bag in the walmart , since then I haven't seen it anywhere.

FYE prices BB's at $3.00 a bag. Not even close to outrageous like HT. FYE is a mall store.
 
Wow, that's nuts. More expensive than a brushable from walmart! Please don't blow so much of your money on such a little item that isn't even of the best quality. Just be patient and wait for them to show up elsewhere...they will eventually!
 
I'm a bit guilty of buying the 5.50 Wave 7 blindbag from Hot Topic (And I also got the first 2 issues of the Friendship is Magic Comic), but the technique of figuring out the index code is the same for all of the other waves that have 5 digits on them. (I figured out how to get Spitfire) But the toys r us near me had Wave 1, 4, and 5 while the HT had wave 4 & 7, and Target had only Wave 4. I feel the frustration of those who want to see different blindbag waves though....
 
The Walmart by me still has a box of the Wave 4 bags. Last month they go one box each of 5 and 6. I was able to get most of Wave 6 but only a few from 5. I've been hoping to find them again. I really want Luna from Wave 5.
 
*smacks head* gah I almost feel like we need to create a support group here for everyone guys ha ha! Like the "we've suffered through waiting to get rid of the wave 4s and would like reasonably priced blinbags in wave order that are in stores long enough for us all to get them" club.....

wow, catchy! We need shirts!

Boo for wave 4 being re-ordered so much!
Boo for jumping waves back and forth!
Boo for not keeping with one wave for enough time so everyone can complete their sets before moving to the next one!!!

yeah! It is nice to hear that I'm not the only one pouting (I actually stomp my feet and poke out my lip like a child and i'm almost 26) when I walk down the pink isle and see that blue box staring back at me!

Hahaha, I do this, too! I still sulk and I'm nearly 27 (not necessarily with the bling bags but with other toy problems). ;)
 
Ugh, the only place I can get to is Kmart and they only have a mix of Wave 1 and Wave 4 still. The nearest Walmart is just about an hour away, and the only way I justify going out there is to go to the fencing store which is nearby, but after my last experience there I'm only ordering my equipment online... No Walmart for me.
At least Kmart has a decent price, $1.99.
