Need 20 Derpys from SDCC

Delc17 · 06-13-2012, 10:19 PM

Can anyone help? I will pay in advance for the ponies, and can pay after the purchases are done for the amount for shipping. Will pay a little extra as a convenience as well. Please help. I'm trying to keep the cost as low as possible for the people around DC who are buying from me.

You might have some trouble as they are limiting the Derpy's to one per person (I think due to the fact she is the Fair pony as well)

The limit of 1 per person is only at the fair, not the comic con. There haven't been any announcements as to limitations at the con.

Also need the new Jem doll. If anyone can pick one up, I'd appreciate it. And any of the MLP motivational posters too

!!!!! Given that they sold out at the fair rather quickly *with* the one per person limit, I will be kinda agged if people can scarf up fifty derpies at comic con only to turn around and sell them on ebay for outrageous prices to the people who missed out on her at MLP Fair, and probably therefore leaving non for Hasbro to sell on their online shop (again to those who missed out--either place-- or those who couldn't come)

I realize SDCC has a heckuva lot more attendees, and therefore it makes sense that there would be more ponies *available* there, but no limit? I wouldn't count on it, as in previous years there was no limit placed on the MLP fair ponies, either. I don't think Hasbro is blind to the ebay turn around of g4 merchandise for 1000% ( so it often seems) profit system. I hope they aren't.

...you do know that this would be the equivalent of being run over by a train and all its following cars about 20 times, right?

Derpy is like gold. Even if you don't like My Little Pony, she's a meme and that's like releasing an official Nyan Cat figure/plush right now. And, not only is she a meme, but she's a beloved character, an I-Spy/Where's Waldo? game for each episode, AND an underdog who was almost a censorship martyr for this politically correct society that we live in.

And that's not just the people who love her. There are also those who don't even care about her, MLP, memes, or otherwise and just see her as a quick money-making opportunity. Their greedy little selves will be drawn in by the potential of making $500 or more from a $10 figure, just because she's Derpy.

All in all: she's a big deal.
You are not likely to get 20 Derpy figures.
I seriously hope that you didn't promise 20 people that you would get them SDCC exclusive Derpy figures.

Exactly what the last two posts stated. Good luck on that. :(
I couldn't even get ONE pony at the fair and I didn't even wait in line for maybe...15 minutes max and they sold out with the limit of one per person. I'm so upset about that. But you can guarantee they will be on sale at list price online after the SDCC. They stated that at the fair.

what website will offer them? hasbrotoyshop.com?

If they are to be found, it will be on hasbro in very limited amounts, or you can pay scalper prices on ebay.
