G1 Basic Fun Retro Ponies: A Collector's Guide

I'm still confused as to why we aren't getting Skyflier and Powder? And where's Surprise at?
 
Hmm. Should I go for broke and get all my childhood ponies back? The only 2 I've been excluding from my wishlist are Lickety-split and Wildflower.

Look what someone on the Arena found! Tootsie and Posey look sooo pretty! I'm thinking I might want Lickety-split back into my collection after all.

Cherries Jubilee is one of my original ponies from when I was a kid!! She may have even been my first pony (or Mommy and Baby Surprise). I'll need to add this one to my collection!

Back to what @Sweet Daes was saying, I check the target website all the time, though I never order. I'm in Ontario and it costs significantly more in shipping and duty than the actual cost of the items. I hardly ever see the U&P ponies. I purchased a ST Applejack from a lady who was selling on FB and she had all of them from multiple trips across the border. She said Medley was especially hard to find.

I was in Hot Topic with my niece the other day and wrote a request on their form for them to carry them. I just don't understand why Basic Fun isn't releasing them in Canada. I've written them on Amazon.com and asked, but they never replied.

That would be pretty smart, however, Glory, Moondancer, Firefly, Cotton Candy and Blossom would have to be reproduced again to have their babies in a set like that to make up for the odd only 1 mommy Surprise and baby in that set. It would be a money drain ti set it up like that. Here's hoping for a pair, triple or whole set in one box of Year 3 Baby Ponies.

Me yesterday: Ah yes, I have finally completed my Basic Fun collection, I don't have to go hunting for them anymore, I am finished, this is wonderful.
Me today: oh no

While at Target yesterday I said to my boyfriend, "No pony hunting probably until March or April. The next batch should come around then." This afternoon though, my instincts were right that the new sets would be shown. I only jumped to my suspicion of the time they'll hit stores.

The Pony Force is strong with all if us.
 
This is a set I might actually buy! Hopefully they make their way to stores in Canada. We never did get the unicorns/earth ponies or wave 2 rainbows :(
