G4 seaponies. WAIT WHAT!?

[reanna-mator]

*hides* don't want. sorry guys.. *runs away*

I'm not a fan of seaponies at all. :3 Why can't we have some G4 animal friends (like Edgar and Leafy) instead?

Heck, let's have both! : D

Ooh yes, pony friends besides the little molded ones would be lovely.

Also, love the avatar.

What I heard is that Hasbro has no intention of ever making G4 sea ponies because they are convinced that today's children don't know what a seahorse is.  I mean... really? Is your opinion of children so low that you honestly don't believe that they are intelligent enough to know what a seahorse is?

But then again, with G4 being so popular, and with fan demand bringing out a lot of character toys that were initially not intended to be made (such as Ditzy Doo or Nightmare Moon), who knows? We could absolutely have a chance of seeing some sea ponies if we keep expressing interest...

Honestly, when my 8-year-old cousin comes over to visit, the first ponies that she wants to play with are not the actual ponies but the sea ponies. I think there's a child interest too! (Unless my cousin and I are just weird and really like seahorses.)

I think seaponies would be fun.  My girls have some of the G1 seaponies I've found from flea markets to play with in the tub (no worries, no adults from the second set, lol!).

I think kids would love them - especially if they market it as something you can play with in the water.

Oh.  I came into the thread thinking there really was going to be G4 sea ponies!  What a shame.  Still, you never know...

I know! That happens any time I see the two terms in the same sentence. The thread could be called "Kumquat three G4 clouds superfreak Sea Ponies kablam lemony-fresh" and I'm pretty sure I would squeal "G4 seaponies?!"

Who knows, maybe we will get some seaponies in an upcoming season of FIM. FIM has all kinds of stuff little kids normally wouldn't get, but who cares! If you don't expose kids to new things they'll be way behind on culture!

And kids LOVE bath toys. I took all kinds of plastic toys into the tub when I was a little girl. Who here hasn't?

I really never considered G3 ponyville mermaid ponies to be considered sea ponies.  Mermaid ponies yes..but as of today I have not seen modern sea ponies and I really want them unless they ruin them and make them look awful.  I fear what they might do to the look of them lol.....

[Saja]

I hope they bring them out!

i have always known kelpies to be dark creatures  (in the celtic tradition)  beware the bogs!   

[Ivy]

lol. You know I was thinking the other day - why are  they even called "Seaponies" We only ever see them in Fresh Bodies of waters like Lakes and Rivers.

"Fresh Water Ponies"...sounds like something edible you would get in one of those "weird" restaurants...

[Tiggums6]

I always think of the faerie kelpies...

This.. This sounds like a tragegy romance waiting to be written.

Scottish legends, like most, tend to wax a little lyrical!

I have a feeling eventually g4 seaponies will show up. Until then I sit and wait patiently.

 I would prefer the g1 style ones with no legs, not the "hippocampus" version.
