I am so entirely jealous of your collection! I especially love seeing all the cow girl barbies back to back. They look so lovely together on their horses!

I was comparing the boxes of Blizzard and SnowDance, EU version shows 6 barrettes and the USA one came with 8
the boxes were designed differently :)
It was kinda cool to find out that little detail, to me is a little worth it to have added the USA version after I had 2 from Europe, I already had Blizzard by the time i found out that there was a USA version with different name :).
very cool to add a 3rd one to the collection.

What are your thoughts on the horses with the more poseable legs like this:
visitors can't see pics , please register or login


I have this pegasus (I am to lazy to post my own pic) and she was probably one of my favorite toys as a kid. I always loved the Barbie horses, but this one really stuck out because you could do whatever you wanted with her legs, and her wings would flap. I had the large tan pegasus as well with the gigantic pink wings, but I was dissapointed her legs never moved.

I know in your earlier posts you had specified the Arabian pose as what you mostly collect, but I was just curious

(Sorry if you have this horse or posted about it a while back, I didn't get a chance to scroll back to page one  :lol:)

I have not come across this horse ,It does look like the new design that I don't think look as good as the vintage ones .
there are so many that look nice and all ,but the  eyes on this one I do not favor them .I guess I'm stuck with the 80s,90s and early 2000s designs .
I was only interested on the Classic Arabian pose when I first started, but some others have come with horses I want and some I have kept, others go to the nephew LOL If this one came in a lot I would keep it for sure,but I wouldn't look for her, the moving legs are a very cool feature I must say, the motorized horse High Stepper that I just added are very nice, I love that walking horse, I might add the other one Tawny , I like that their face design is still a natural horse not as stylized as this one.

I prefer the look of the older horses too.  Their faces are gorgeous!    And I'm startled by how many different color variations they made over the years.

However, as a kid, I think a posable horse would have been on my wish list.   :heart:

Houstoncollector72, your horses just keep coming and coming!  So many more all the time; it's a stampede!  So, some of them come with the twisty hair styling tool and instructions how to use it??  That's pretty good instigation.

I think I have one that has the separate shoes but it has nothing including no shoes.  Can I find just the shoes somewhere?? and the rest of the tack would be good too....without its shoes it's not spectacular but seeing yours with the separate shoes; they look so good!

Chelsea7 I just saw the Barbie movie with that Pegasus...she's the older sister of the Princess turned into a Pegasus by the bad guy.  I ...resisted getting it for weeks looking for G3 dvds that rarely appear and finally gave up and bought it and watched it last week.  It....wasn't too bad and what happens to the bad guy in the end was really appropriate.

As for poseable, I found some other jointed horses and one of them walks along when you push it forward....not motors or batteries, it just walks when you push it along.  It's fun but the joints are a bit unsightly.

:) Yes, the instructions came with the twisting tool, pretty nice :) I think the horses will slow down now
very few to find now :) ,some doubles here and there maybe too. I was outbid on a lot for 2 Rosebud Horses, I was sick , so I did not pay attention to the ebay auctions for the last couple of days :).

I saw that movie of the sisters and one being turned into a Pegasus, good to know this is the toy for that movie :)

Yes I am certain that is the correct Pegasus from that movie; the bell around her neck is a gift from the lady (forget her name) in the city in the clouds with the Pegasi and the princesses use it to call on her for help.

Don't know who the tan Pegasus is, Chelsea do you have it still?  They would go together well as you have both the poseable one and the one with the non-jointed legs.

I really like those pink n white etc plush saddles and fetlock warmers! But I gotta say your curls with the TV-infomercial flat-curly thing-er-izer makes better curls than the Barbie twister.  A product that I think may be made for people, but is strong enough for ponies!

I just came across the name of the Pegasus, her name is Brietta.

I stopped using the magic curlers, the curls were not lasting very much, plus at the time of the release of the twist, there was static being produced with them and the hair, so it was off putting sometimes, went back to my curlers and paper towels :)

So results like that last image above are from paper towel and regular curlers, not the gimmicky kind?  Looks great.

Hm I have a lot of trouble getting hair to stay grouped right as I wind around my curlers, so hard to hold onto and control...I bet paper towels would resolve that...great tip, I will try it.  Thanks!

Yes there is one scene where the male hero meets the princess and the pegasus and hears they are sisters and he says to the princess "Yes I see the resemblance" basically calling Barbie's character "horseface" which was pretty funny.  Someone tell me it's Ok to slide down the slippery slope of animated kids movies into enjoying Barbie movies too...I'm not sure it's OK but did enjoy watching it...then at the end they do a bunch of fake out-takes that are also pretty funny.  You just gotta see what happens to the bad guy in the end...it's just so good...Probably NOT ok to watch, haha....oh well I need to go curl up with my pony toys now.
