LaW, referring to the symbol when you say part and parcel with mlp?

Not so, MLP has always had blank flanks as far back as G1.  I forget their names, but the blank G1 baby ponies are totally cute and I am pretty sure I have one of them...somewhere.

Nothing wrong with no-symbol ponies and Star Dreams is about the best looking G4 I've ever seen, got to get me a few of her.


Blank Flanks is a G4 only term and yes i know that there have been a few here and there without symbols. But it's still a core part of the identity of MLP and you'll notice that aside from sea ponies, the symbol-less ones are few and far between. There were also none in G3 aside from the Blank Pony, but she doesn't count as she was meant to be customized.

Excuse me for the overbroad application of the term but I still think Star Dreams fits into the category of the few and that is just one more thing that makes her special.

(though it is interesting there are no G3 examples, what about G2?  None?)

I love her colors. And due to that there aren't just a lot of "babies" apart from the CMC, that makes me all the more precious to me. :)

I really like her, and she has eluded me for a long time. I will be a happy lady someday when I finally nab her.

I'm not really sure. I've never even seen one in person. You'd probably be better off asking G2 collectors. ^^; Sorry lostpony.

I'm about 99% sure that there aren't any G2s who don't have symbols.

I love her, but I still don't have her. Gonna buy her on Aliexpress when the 7 years celebration sales will start.

I fully understand that the butt tatts are MLP's identity, but does every sinle pony need one?  (98% of ponies have them, so that's why I said a pony without one makes them unique)

In G1 the only symbol-less pony(ies) that were not sea ponies was Ember (Pink/Blue/Lavender), G2 I don't recall any without a symbol, and G3 there were none. G1 and G4 were the only ones that did this and G4 just pretty much expanded on it

I hope you're able to get her. There's a seller on this site asking $15 for her, and listings on eBay that are around $20. Sadly, I don't think she'll get much cheaper than that.

I'm pretty sure there was a baby pony who lacked one. I think she was the Club Pony?  For members of an MLP Club in Europe or something?

Edit: Found her! She's all white  and is the Activity Club Baby.

The photo in the first post is adorable, but perhaps you should have linked to the source? Since it isn't your photo :) Not trying to sound mean, just saying. A lot of people don't like their photos being used without permission.

Anyway, more on topic, I love Star Dreams! She's adorable. I only ever saw her once - when I bought her - and IIRC she was kind of rare when she was released? So that might be why she's sort of underappreciated. (Well, that and there are thousands of ponies now - some of them are going to get lost in the shuffle, unfortunately ^^;) But she is very cute ^^

I have her!  she was in a distribution wave that was all wonky so Canada got her first and the US really didn't... so there are less of her variations out there.

I adore her. I've just never seen her in stores. I'd love to have her.
