Hello all!

I am the friend mentioned by ZuluSeashell and will be posting her photo's on her behalf. Please note: None of these photo's are mine and neither are the backcards or the ponies. They all belong to ZuluSeashell  :)

Firstly... PONIES

I have tried to match the front and backs of the cards, but please forgive me if I do make a mistake as I did not receive these together  :)

Oh, love the Fairytale cards! The back art is just so different with the rainbow :)

Which pony did came on the SA card?  Is it africaans as the other language?

Zuluseashell believes it was Seashell's card :) The backcard story is the same in both languages ^.^

:lovey: Awesome pictures.
The Surprise/Gusty etc card breaks my heart every time I see it, with the UK stuff on the bottom. We were meant to have those and they took them from us and gave them to everyone else instead :'(

I have never forgiven Hasbro for that decision :P

I knew that would upset you :hug: If the Flutterbye card had been vertical it would have just rubbed salt into the wound :hug:

Well, I do like to see the cards, because I love the cards, but it does break my heart because it's proof of how much we were betrayed. They made us love those characters and focused the bulk of the early year stories on ponies we were never able to buy. Despite that, they made them, packaged them in UK packages and then sent them abroad. The rainbow card is also upsetting but not as much as this one. I would have given a lot as a kid to have seen those in stores. I don't suppose I will ever get over the fact they had them and yet sent them overseas. Even now I still haven't managed to obtain a pony with that backcard, either. It's just a whole bunch of sad.

Oh well. At least I know they did make some kids happy, somewhere :/

oh dear, Sorry Taffeta!
But if it helps, it did make many SA kids very happy!

So strange though... I wonder what Hasbro's thinking was? :|

Oh, it's not your faults! It's Hasbro UK's. I don't know what the rationale was at all :'( I mean, if you aren't going to sell the pony here, don't put the character in the comics and books and on the merchandise..:'(

Hi everyone

So I just recently found something that proves that Prima Toys was licensed by Hasbro in the 80s :) https://photos.app.goo.gl/H8dGpFR7hXyVr8sLA

Amazing find!

Is that the bottom of a bubble bath or money box? I cannot tell :blush:

It's the Money Box :D https://photos.app.goo.gl/Jq4YiyShdDCToNHP6

Any idea on the value of something like this?
