Yeah, it's really hard to find glitters around here. I know a few times I've called different stores and they've had glitters on hold for other people. So I'm always late to the party when it comes to that.

The HT I live closest to puts their glitters right out in the front after they get a shipment in (or so that's what a worker told me), so if I'm not there as soon as they put them on the shelves (which I never am), I miss out.

Remember I'm not part of the trading group. We talked about it a long time ago. I feel bad I can't be.

Mine does that too, and unless I want to drive about an hour to Greensburg I don't have any other HT stores close to me. :-/

Ouch.

I live 20 minutes to the west of Pittsburgh, and there are for sure 4 HT's near me that don't take very long to get to. There are I think 2 on the other side of Pittsburgh that I can drive to as well, but I avoid them if I can.

You shouldn't. I tried to be, but after being treated very rudely i quit and sold it to a fallow bored member.

Thank you. Yea I tried to join didn't understand the rules and wasn't treated nicely either. I put a lot of work into these things so the glitters make it all worth it especially right now where I don't have another two just two self employed jobs.

I got so excited to see that I had an email from HT but...it wasn't to go pickup Celestia at my local store.

Hopefully that will come either tomorrow or Friday. The thing is that my local stores probably have her in stock already.

Kinda off topic..but can someone name the HT exclusive minis?

From wave 1 I know it's SA Rainbow, Dr, Derpy, Vinyl and Pinkie.

Wave 2 I know Crystal discord and SA Lyra..and SA Spitfire I think?

Asking because I'm only missing three regular ponies from this wave (Colored Discord, AJ and Big Mac) and now it's time to focus on the others.

Wave 2 has Crystal Discord and the SA versions of Lyra, Spitfire and Fluttershy

Just called my local Hot Topic and still nothing on the princesses. I'm really really hoping they'll be in the store this upcoming weekend! I need to glitter hunt, come on!

Postby **Birdeh** » Thu Dec 18, 2014 3:12 pm

Alright so there're four. So that means for all the waves I'm missing 11, I think. Regular AJ and Big Mac, color discord / crystal, and SA Pinkie, Dr, Vinyl, Derpy, Lyra, Fluttershy and Spitfire.

So I bet these won't hit any other stores until easily next near now! Probably another 3 weeks watch.. I mean they are outta stock so...

I had a feeling. When I heard that they were out of stock online, I was like "Great, we won't be seeing them in the store until January". That's really upsetting, but at least by then the Christmas shopping rush will be over and there won't be a million people in that tiny Hot Topic store. :rolleyes:

What if they never come to stores! Its possibl... I mean they might just skip over these and move onto the next ponies, I mean look how long Lyra and Pinkie were in stores and Dj and Octavia they never got restocks.

Postby **GameOfWhooves** » Fri Dec 19, 2014 3:45 pm

I got my mine today. No glitters though. On a side note, I noticed the boxes were actually taped shut unlike previous waves and pops.

Mine were taped as well. So was my Baymax pop that I ordered from Walmart.

The HT's around here never got Spitfire, so I wouldn't be too surprised. I talked to my neighbor when I went to check the mail (he's a manager at one of the stores) and he said that they haven't heard or seen anything about getting the princesses, but he'd definitely let me know if they ever come in.

Soooooo, a few day's ago my HotTopic asked on Facebook "what would you like for Christmas? " i posted "Glitter Celestia!" And today thay posted "this one?" So i rushed down there and got her! Sooooo happy! I got a Top for a friend for Christmas so i only paid $9.00!

Called my local Hot Topic and they got Celestia! I asked about a glitter, but the guy seemed really confused so I'm heading over now to look. lol

Good luck Renia. Keep us posted. I'm hoping this means my Nj HT stores will get these in on Monday. My stores didn't have these things day. Fingers crossed that we get holiday miracles

They had her and the glitter was right out in front! One of the workers there had just put her on the shelf when I walked in. He said he thought of me when he saw her and was hoping I'd get her. Yay!

They didn't have Luna though.

Postby **ShoMeNodder** » Sat Dec 20, 2014 3:25 pm

What's up with not finding the Lunas ? Congrats Renia, i got Celestia glitter today but still have not received my ponies from HT that were shipped.

Postby **brand42** » Sat Dec 20, 2014 10:28 pm

I still don't have my Celestia preorder. It should be arriving next week at my local HT which incidentally already has their stock of Celestias. Hopefully mine will be a glitter although I'm not usually so lucky.

Postby **Birdeh** » Sat Dec 20, 2014 10:39 pm

I went to HT today. Hardly any ponies at all. Glad I grabbed Luna when I did. I'll go back in a week or so to look for Tia.

Postby **Dark69** » Sun Dec 21, 2014 1:07 am

Congratulations to all who found Glitter Celestia! Nice to see fans getting her for a good price.

Postby **AuthoressWings** » Sun Dec 21, 2014 1:13 pm

Went to a Hot Topic, they only had a few Celestias and she was up too high for me to look for the variant. Oh well, should get my order on Wensday.

Postby **wenhol8710** » Sun Dec 21, 2014 3:16 pm

Found glitter Celestia! My HT had her right out front, they said they had just put her out this morning.

My first glitter in the wild.

Postby **ShoMeNodder** » Sun Dec 21, 2014 3:21 pm

Big congrats Wendy, hope Luna is as bountiful !

I hope so! My HT didn't have any Lunas in stock yet, so there's still hope to find her. :colors:

Postby **renirawr** » Sun Dec 21, 2014 3:35 pm

Congrats, Wendy!

I'm so glad that so many of us are finding glitter Celestia. Let's hope we have the same luck with Luna!

Postby **AquaticNeon** » Mon Dec 22, 2014 3:02 pm

Congrats guys, looks like complete 0 for Luna stock anywhere around me, but apparently the site has 300 of them, not listed though. Anyways if anyone wants to buy a glitter Celestia from me shoot me a PM
