MLP Wave 12 Blind Bag
Hasbro seems to twist the term 'blind bags' around with the introduction of Wave 12 Blind Bags this week in the US: The bags are almost see-through and have a transparent 'window' in the bag through which you can see the pony (see images below). This seems to be a reaction on the fact that a lot of people were already using the blind bag codes to see what pony was inside. However, the codes are still present at the bottom of the bags. A few months ago when the bags appeared for the first time we've already reviewed them and noticed the lack of codes on the thin bags, this now seems to be confirmed. Images of the ponies are now more useful than ever to identify ponies, as this is 100% proof of the pony inside. So be sure to have a good look in our Blind Bag Database to see what ponies you're looking for. We'll edit our code post and Blind Bag Database to reflect these changes. An update for the Android app will be available soon as well.
The blind bags have been spotted at some Toys"R"Us stores and now it'll be a wait for every store to put them in stock, and other parts of the world will probably follow soon. There might also be a chance that parts of Asia already have access to wave 12 blind bags too.
Happy hunting to everyone. And feel free to send us scans of the collector cards! ;)
Thanks to Chad Alan for the video about them and carwyynx, Emma, Bin's Toy Bin and everyone else for the tips!

  1. Wow, this is quite awesome. Will save me from looking up codes or trying to feel what's inside the bag (thought finding Cheese Sandwitch would be easy, somehow got Big Wig... -.- )
    So yay :D

    2. There is a small piece of transparent plastic at the back of the bag. Through that transparent piece of plastic you can see which pony is inside without opening it.

  3. i think i would like the codes better, easier to go through and find the letters i need than having to fumble with the bag and look through the peep hole. plus there are rainbow dash, twilight and pinkie with cutie mark designs, so i have to spend more time trying to see that. Also if im missing ones i just tell people please look for AM or whatever i am looking for. now id have to give them a picture or something. I think ill miss the codes, as this means more work for me

    2. Depends on where you live! They have already been released in the US, but not every store has them in stock already, so you might need to look around for a store that has them.

  6. I found this site about a week ago and watched Chad Alan’s video. Been to over 8 ToysRUs this past week with no luck. Then stumbled up this Toy Genie Surprises Youtube video:

    She said the manager told her it was prereleased. Sure enough, I went to Target this morning and got 8 blind bags. Love it that you can see which pony you are buying. My daughter and her friends now think I’m the world’s greatest dad :-)
