Title: Pennys Pony Club
Post by: little.fox on February 03, 2012, 12:55:54 AM: Does anyone remember these? I had these as a kid but could not for the life of me remember what they were until stumbling across some on eBay. I was so happy to finally put a name to them!

I could only find one item on eBay, where is a good place to look for them?
Does anyone have any for sale/trade?

If not, she's Brainshake on the Swedish forum and you can always PM her there. I don't think she's as active here as over there.
