Echoing what others have said - that Baby Blossom Candy (Cotton Blossom?) is absolutely gorgeous and adorable.

[relcelestia]

OOOO AWWESOME!!!!
yay for new ponies!!! (that arent argies lol!)

im lovin that baby cotton blosom!!

[Aeithales]

Wow!  Are they MIP too?  Where were they found?

To cut the long story short, my friends' family had a store for rent and when the last tenanst left without notice, they abandoned their stock to compensate for the money loss!! The place hadn't been open for almost 15 years and the ponies - among other toys - were saved the very last minute from a cleaning raid - you can imagine "How Clean Is Your House" à la Grecque 
 

Wow!! That Peachy-Cuddles is beautiful! It seems that there are Pegasus babies to correspond to the color schemes of each of the earth babies now... oh wait, I don't think we've seen a Lemondrop colored Pegasus baby yet. Did these lovely babies come with blue buggies?

If my memory serves my right, one comes with the pink buggy and the other with the blue. I'll have to confirm that, though! They are both still MIB and in excellent shape!
 
I am pretty sure now that El Greco used the same colours that they already had available to create new ponies. Once a colour scheme was popular, why not repeat it? Think of the other pegasus Baby Cuddles, they correspond to Bowtie (darker shade of pink hair), Blossom and Minty. So, a pegasus in the colours of Baby Lemondrop could have been made - but what would her cutie marks be, a rattle, musical notes or lightnings? What's more, they made orange adult pegasi, anyway, so, why not make a baby too?
 
Keep in mind, none of the babies is - or will be - mine, this is just a pony-fix for me!

wow! i would have loved to dig through and see what else was in there! some goodies as well as big spiders no doubt.

not so long ago gazzy found a yellow firefly, her pictures is here in the gallery ~

http://mlparena.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.ShowItem&g2_itemId=217795&g2_page=2

her hair is neon yellow like surprise though, as far as i am aware this colour was not used on the greek ponies. also she had knots holding her mane in place. we don't know much of the pony's history (only that she was a childhood pony) is she a restore, OOAK or a new pony?

seeing these new ponies made me think of this firefly again and i am wondering if or how they all fit in.

love pkw xxxx

Wow! Gorgeous! What a lucky friend you have (and sounds like these ponies had a lucky escape too!)

I'm always amazed how many 'new' ponies show up that we have never seen before; esp from countries we thought we 'knew' so well like Greece.

Thanks for sharing!

I can understand how collectors can be skeptical about the authenticity of these ponies... The fact that new Greek variations appear out of the blue can, quite rightfully, cause a lot of raised eye-brows. However, I believe that our community is not familiar enough with El Greco toys. There was ABSOLUTE CHAOS (I always wanted to write this  )!! Friends here who collect Bibi-Bo dolls - the Greek equivalent of Barbie, and far more popular than any other El Greco toy - cannot even create a Wish List! There are uncountable variations of every doll! Same thing with the Happy-Happy Sisters, the Patapouf plush dolls, and so on and so forth! A die-hard collector would consider themselves lucky, or unlucky, depending whether you see the glass half-full or half empty! Too bad the information is not available on the Internet; that would explain a lot on how El Greco units worked.


Here is how I see it: there is an (adult) green Firefly instead of a Green Medley, right? Well, there is definitely a Green Medley too out there, as it was originally supposed to be, she is just hiding somewhere! When I was a kid, a neighbor owned pink Firefly and we used to play for hours together. That pony, however, is one of the rarest and most sought-after versions and I never saw her loose since then! Why is that, I will never understand! I am convinced there should be at least two more baby unicorns, a monochromatic yellow and a monochromatic green, because it makes sense with El Greco: they made a pink one, a blue one etc. Production was inconsistent, especially with adult Unicorns and Pegasi and I find impossible even to file all those variations. However, there seems to be some sort of pattern with baby ponies.


Now, to be honest, it never even crossed my mind to take a head off a pony's head to check how the mane is secured, compare it with others and all that. As I grew up with these ponies, there is only one proof I subjectively ask for: I only believe what my eyes and my instinct approve as genuine El Greco madness!!!
