Non-English G1 Comics - Germany, Italy, Sweden, France, Argentina, Belgium...

[moonflower]

I am very interested to find out more about G1 non-English comics/magazines.

Which countries had comics? (I know of Germany, France, Sweden, Italy, Argentina, Belgium - are there any others?)
How many issues did each country get?
Did they come with free gifts?

This is the info I have so far:-

At least 8 issues
Other info = Italian comics had their own artwork, unlike reusing the same artwork as all the other countries did.

EDIT: Added more new information.

[Doedeardarling]

I have seen some finnish versions of the magazine, so that exists too, but I cannot help with the details. I believe it was simply called "My Little Pony"

[moonflower]

Thanks Doedeardarling, I will update the first post with all new info.

[Mirnyj]

Oh, there's one issue in Finnish at my parents house! I'm going to visit them next week so I'll check that out for you.

[moonflower]

Awesome! Thanks Mirnyj!

[LadyGuinevere]

I have a couple of Portuguese ones, but would have to check on the detail

[Wildshadow]

I have a few, well I thought they were German but I think they are the 'mijn ' ones (very similar to mein to me , heh)

I was going to sell them until I compared them to the uk ones of similar games and panels which they were more vibrant than the originals and sometimes the games/extra stuff was slightly different. 

[Mirnyj]

So here goes:

My Little Pony SARJAKUVAKIRJA
Leijuvaiset ja muita seikkailuja (Engl. original: The Float-Arounds and other stories)

Published by Oy Kirjalito Ab, Printed in Finland 1987
ISBN 951-28-1720-9

Also in the series: Talven Ihmemaassa ja muita seikkailuja

So in this case it was published as a mini comic book rather than a magazine. No puzzles or anything, just the comics. I don't know then if there was a magazine too?

[Doedeardarling]

I found someone with many of the finnish magazines, just scroll down http://www.kmlautanen.fi/fi/lelut/kokoelma3.html

You can probably find more by googling My Little Pony and Sarjakuva/Sarjakuvalehti/lehti

Wow, there are so many cool things I have not seen before on that page!! <3

[LadyGuinevere]

Had a check on my notes and Portuguese go at least to issue 8. For Argentina I only have issue #1, so that's no help, lol!

Oh, not sure if Denmark had comics themselves, but some of the comic stories were issued in book form - the one I have is Lommeserien 2.
