That would be awesome if she's on the cover of the one with Blackberry/Boysenberry Pie. I will have to keep a look out for that one.
I had a quick look through the pictures I have of my pony comics (which are far inferior to the scans other people have) and she's on the cover of 128 and with Blackberry Pie on the cover of 138 as well. Here you go Spoilervisitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginIronically, she has a forelock But then most of the comic pictures were done either from the prototypes or the US release that was already out in stores. We didn't get Sweetberry ponies till around 1990ish I don't think...so a lot later than the 1988 release in the US. The second comic is certainly dated 1990 and that makes sense with my memory.I am also now wondering how they are pictured on the insert/back of Cherry Treats' card. And whether it's 1990 or 1991 I have in Hasbro catalogues...
Wow, thank you so much, Taffeta! I love those! That's funny she has the forelock. That's interesting how you didn't get the Sweetberry ponies there until 1990. I'm not sure exactly what you mean regarding how they are pictured on the insert/back of Cherry Treats card. Do you mean US Cherry Treats? I can't seem to remember an insert that has her on it. Is there an insert she is on?Quote from: Taffeta on September 09, 2018, 02:11:04 AMI had a quick look through the pictures I have of my pony comics (which are far inferior to the scans other people have) and she's on the cover of 128 and with Blackberry Pie on the cover of 138 as well.

Thanks for all the pics, Taffeta! I'd have liked them to make a petite CT. I'm saving all these pics and am so glad to have them! I love that new in ponyland photo one! The forelock in that one is so funny! It kinda looks like they took one without a forelock and tried to make a forelock.
The Chinese forelock pony is curious to me as well. I'm kind of glad to know she does exist and I didn't imagine her, but explaining why she does is really annoying xD. I think it must just be that Hasbro in the US wanted forelocks and Hasbro in Europe didn't care, and the HK ones maybe happened first and then manufacture shifted to China and the European ones (which came out a year later) were therefore all China.

I suspect that's the case.By the way, the mail order pearly babies are another set of three variations like this: HK with forelock, China with forelock, and China without forelock.
