OH MY GODDDDDDDDD that's them!  The back of the box seems to be missing the yellow one with green hair & palm trees but this is them.  What's weird is they're by HG, which means when I bought mine in the 90's they must have been old stock! 

I WANT THEM OMG



They are NOT Matchbox's Carousel Collection. 

These horses were smaller than a Barbie horse and a FSF but were made from similar plastic.  They had brushable hair and their molds were (I believe) unique.  They had removable saddles (possibly bridles) but the neatest thing was that they had a carousel pole that snapped on to them so that they looked like they belonged on a carousel.  I had a white one with pink hair and a purple one with teal hair.  They might have had symbols (I want to say the theme of the white one was snowflakes and the purple was red hearts?).  I'd be interested to find them again and see if there are more.

GO GO GO

Oh, I know the ones you're talking about.  I had the white with pink hair and black with blue hair.  Someone was trying to ID them several years ago but I don't think much information was ever found. 

Here's the old thread (sadly the pictures are gone): http://mlparena.com/archive/Forums/viewtopic/t=257523/

There is also a link to a Ghost of the Doll discussion about them that does have one picture remaining that happens to be the purple with teal hair and heart symbols: http://ghostofthedoll.co.uk/Forum/index.php?topic=889.msg21957#msg21957

The link to the site mentioned in those threads that talks about them is dead but using the Wayback Machine on it you can see a few more: https://web.archive.org/web/20050309125956/http://bluegallop.topcities.com/ATXTHGToys.html

Breyer, that's her!!  I'd have LOVED to have the black one too.  It shares a pose with a lot of running GC horse it looks like.  Off to research, I MUST have more of these!

I have one of those! They're HG brand. The one I have is pink with purple hair and she has blue and yellow roses on her. I have a few realistic HG horses. I'll post pictures soon if I can.

Yes, please!  I've saved all the pics I could find of each horse but yours would be one I've not seen yet.  I still haven't found my white with pink haired girl either.  10/10 would totally collect.

I totally will! Probably tomorrow since she has curlers in her hair right now so once that's done I'll get pictures right away.

See update omg!

Oh wow, that's awesome!  Nice to have the official names for the most of them too.  I wonder if the yellow was a special set like the green one or if it was a late edition to the standard line.
