Lots of ponies are worth $100+! Especially nirvanas!
Here's a couple I can think off the top of my head:
Greek lady bird
Spanish Milky Way
Spanish sweet tooth
Mint Brazilian ponies with fabulous hair!
Piggy ponies
Peru unicorns
Argie unicorn sparkle sprinkles
Many htf Greeks and babies
Some Colombians
Mint well listed mountain boys
South african ponies.

I just paid $110 for a mip baby up up and away! ive seen lots of ponies hit pass the 100$ mark. It depends on whose looking and how badly the want it!
Thanks to calico star for my avatar!

I paid $120 for my Mimic, but for me in GBP is only £75. My Ice Crystal was £65. They were my most expensive ponies so far.
Next would be Munchy who was €50, which worked out at around £40. All ponies in extremely good to mint condition.

I've seen mint Hollywood go for around $300 odd. I wouldn't personally pay that for her however.

The ponies I've paid around $100 for are Mimic, Rosey Posey, Frisco, Trolley, Licensing Show Rarity and a G3 Comic Con Prototype.  My Rapunzel I got for around $300.  Did I pay too much?  Maybe, I don't know.  Are they actually worth it?  I guess they are to me.  The way I look at it is that if I have the money at the time and I find a HTF pony in a price range I can afford, I ought to jump on it then instead of waiting to see if prices jump up in a few years.  I can already tell you that even more common G1s are going for about twice as much as they were when I first started collecting.  I'm trying to concentrate now on finishing my G3s while they're still in their lull stage and picking off my older gens as I can find reasonable deals on them.  However, I'm also a "gotta catch them all" kind of pony collector.

thanks for the stories everyone!

I just wondered because the most I paid for a pony so far is $40 or a fair condition MB Sunburst.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to buy a special display/storage box as soon as my transformer arrives,  I feel like I gotta treat this part of my collection different , ya know?  as opposed to just tossing it in the bin with the rest of my robots! ;P... the same for a pony if I spent that much.  I think.

this is all new for me!

Excluding Nirvanas, there are not as many G1s up at that price range as you would think. A lot of the later mail orders are the main culprits plus Ice Crystal. Even ponies like Mimic and Red Roses and the other MBs can be found for under that price point most of the time.

However if you love a pony or a transformer then its totally worth whatever you pay for it!

I think, if you hunt ebay long enough?  Her price can fluctuate.  I've seen her go as low as $75.  If you get her in a lot, she can also average out to less.

I paid $90-ish for Ice Crystal.  MO Mommy and Baby are easily worth $100+ each.

There are so many ponies that will go at $100 and more, the difference is what I'll be able to afford or want badly enough to bite my tooth and pay.  ;)

This.  My Mimic came out of a large lot I dropped $150 on.  By the time I sold the excess off, my Mimic cost me about $50 and she's super nice.  She has some light color transfer on her NDS, and the pink in her hair is almost all gone, but other than that, she's perfect.  That was well over five years ago, but you can get lucky sometimes if you go for a lot or an auction with bad pictures.  I got my Crumpet in an auction with a Truly, and after I sold Truly off, Crumpet worked out to $40, and by joe, is she the mintiest Crumpet that I've ever seen online or off.

My Mimic was only $75, that was a case of right place right time. Ponies do fluctuate a lot in value over surprisingly short periods of time, so the going rate in September can change drastically depending on time of year - Xmas, holidays, tax returns, all make a difference.
At the end of the day, a pony is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. :)

On at least 1/2 of her recently ended ebay auctions. She does hover up around the high mark and she is pricer right now than she has been for months but patience and the right time she will be $100 or more often lower.

Truth.  I managed to get 2 of them very cheaply in the last year alone.

I don't think anyone should ever be forced to pay $100+ for what was originally a $5 toy but that's just me.
