I was born in 1987. So, quite a few are older than I am. All my childhood ponies were secondhand. I know that there were some sold after bit for some reason I was not aware of them in stores. However, I did get some petites and one My Little Kitty set in store. Don’t remember actually picking them out though. Flea markets, rummage/garage/yard sales, and thrift stores were my main sources of ponies. My cousin had her older sisters collection. Firefly, Hearthrob, Baby Firefly, Sugarberry, Dancing Butterflies, Locket, Mimic, Snuzzle, Baby Glory, Creamcicle, Baby Shady, Baby Milkweed, Baby Cotton Candy, Butterscotch, Medley, SS Gusty, Gusty, Baby Sundance, Sweet Stuff, Lily, Tropical Breeze, Princess Primrose, Blueberry Baskets, Strawberry Surprise, Lady Flutter, and Buzzer were all childhood ponies older/same age.
Beautybloom, Baby Tappy, Baby Dangles, Streaky, Baby Brightbow, Lil Honeypie, and Baby Stockings were childhood ponies younger than me.
