I can't think of anything missing at the moment that hasn't been mentioned? I like the idea of having a Retro section as I'm actually really interested in these figures right now. I love Right Hoof Red and Peggy Mane, etc. <3

Thank you everyone for your detailed replies and information and especially the comparison pics are a great help!  i will work on compiling a list and updating the site when I can...

What about HQG1C too?
I'm not familiar with these... can you tell me more?

Did we mention ST Applejack as well?

What is ST Applejack?

I actually don't think HQG1C should be included on the website, for two reasons. One, people may start thinking of them as real MLPs, rather than customs, and two, it raises the question as to at what point should a custom be included on an actual MLP ID page?

I think talking to Clipper and co about that would be sensible, but I would expect HQG1C to have their own site or a site dedicated to their products, which could maybe be linked to but not incorporated.

They're great things, but we don't want to confuse new collectors by making them think they're real ponies when they're not. It's not the same as the retro ponies from BF, as they're licensed and so official.

Ya if they aren’t genuine licensed MLP I won’t include them. That is too much of a wormhole for me to go down... I don’t include fakies either... but I agree another site for these would be great.

That’s a fair point. A fakie section would be cool though!
