I received my box of Wave 8 blind bags that I had preordered. The bags have changed so there is no middle flap with the codes anymore, but there does seem to be a pattern to the imprint on the bottom of the bags. The bags were in order from AA to AZ (skipping J and Q) and those letters corresponded to the numbers on the cards:
A = 01 Applejack
B = 02 Big Macintosh
C = 03 Royal Riff
D = 04 Mosely Orange
E = 05 Gilda
F = 06 Flam
G = 07 Flim Skim
H = 08 Fluttershy
I = 09 Skywishes
K = 10 Granny Smith
L = 11 Princess Cadence
M = 12 Golden Harvest
N = 13 Flower Wishes
O = 14 Pinkie Pie
P = 15 Sassaflash
R = 16 Comet Tail
S = 17 Rainbow Dash
T = 18 Sunny Rays
U = 19 Gardinia Glow
V = 20 Lemon Hearts
W = 21 Rarity
X = 22 Ribbon Wishes
Y = 23 Lotus Blossom
Z = 24 Twilight Sparkle
The letters apear more than once on the bottom. Here are a couple of pictures to show what I'm referring to (this is Big Mac's bag so AB). Hopefully, this is true for all the boxes so it will still be possible to track down an individual pony in the stores.
For those wondering about the differences between the Wave 7 mane six and these, here are some pics with Wave 7 on the left and Wave 8 on the right.
For Rarity and Fluttershy, the main difference is that the new wave has much brighter hair. Wave 8 Fluttershy might be just a half shade darker and her eyes are a bit different in shape as well.
Twilight's hair is also brighter, but the Wave 7 version has a redder tone to the body color.
Rainbow Dash is much darker and has hot pink instead of red in her hair - the rest of the colors are brighter as well.
Pinkie Pie is a very bright hot pink.
Wave 8 Applejack is a neon orange that my camera hated. I tried my best to get a good comparison shot, but I'm not sure how well it came across - the difference is extremely noticeable in person.
I hope this helps once they start appearing in stores. :smilepony:
