I guess I can kind of understand the G3/G4 "baby doll" ponies. They're more baby doll-y so I can see how they'd appeal to kids that liked baby dolls *and* ponies (I'm assuming they sell well with kids? Collectors usually seem uninterested in them, but like you said, they obviously sell well enough if they keep making them...). They're not my thing but I can just about see the logic/appeal there.But the Soft Sleepy Newborns in G1... who the heck were THOSE aimed at?!?! And why did they call them that?? They're not soft! They're just terrifying!!!
@Carrehz, that sounds like a standard 'blame it on the UK' myth. I'd be surprised given how standard all the stuff is in G4 for one name to be different here for any reason. G4 is also full of fan names which still have currency even if they are not on the pony package, so maybe an excuse to try and 'legitimise' a fan name...? Not sure but it would be odd if they did it just for one pony.It's true that other companies did change names as well, but the lack of pattern/consistency in how MLP is done means that it's difficult to just assume it as one of those things. Sylvanian Families aren't even Sylvanian Families in all locations, iirc.Perfume Puff Palace...yeah. Well. Right.They still showed the G4 episode where AJ and co are making lotsa cider though over here. Whoops. I did see that one and I may have laughed all the way through it.Baby dolls...are there baby dolls in G4? I thought they were a weird G3 only thing. (Not so) Soft Sleepy Newborns are more just what would happen if your baby pony stumbled onto the set of Honey I Blew Up The Kids...I don't really see them as baby dolls as such. I suppose they could be...? But yeah. I'm still stuck on the name. I only have Hushabye but I guarantee she is anything but soft.I think she could probably be used as a cannonball, honestly. She'd do damage.

I will never get why these cartoon-exclusive G3 Pegasus and Unicorn ponies were...cartoon-exclusive and not 'real'. :<visitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or login
