Do you have a version of her? What do you think of her? Share some more pics!


I just have a few store releases. She's got some great nirvana variations too!

Have her, she's really pretty, I like her a lot. Love that bright red streak next to the rest of her pretty light colors.

Have her ! Found in a flea market with 25 other G1s. I made a pic, she's all dirty and frizzy but I can't show you yet, I don't have my SD card at reach. ^^ I really like her neon red streak, I can't wait to see her all stunning when she'll get restored.

She has somehow avoided me for the past few years. I'll get her soon!

Sparkler was my first G1 pony ever! I'm obsessed with her!

She was one of the first ponies I organised to trade for when I realised that she really existed!

Sparkler was on the front cover of my first ever edition of the MLP comic (issue 18). She was something of a magpie character, with a love for jewels and gems and a collection of them...the story was something about a picnic and her collection saving the day...

Here she is! And I just found the story on Youtube :)

Here it is for anyone interested. Helpful baby ponies, but not the brightest...:)

My Sparkler sadly no longer has curls. I really would love TBD to make this set at some point because I'd like a fresh new one from box - but she's still on my theoretical upgrade list. If I had space I would have armies of the year 2 and 3 pegasus and unicorns and year 3 rainbow ponies, just because I was never able to get them as a kid :)

I think I also have an Italian one. I believe she is a lot more curly than her HK counterpart is...

I looove Sparkler :heart: She's such a pretty and unique colour, and that bright red streak really pops and stands out compared to the rest of her more muted colour scheme..

I love Sparkler, do have her already.  She's such a pretty colour combination, normally I'm wary of purple and red being used together, but it works so well with her.  Her symbol does annoy me a bit - why that random forth diamond in the middle row?

I like her, but somehow I like her better in illustrations than the "real" pony.  That picture from the first post is the quintessential Sparkler to me because I had that brochure and looked at it sooo much.

Finally one I have! She was a longtime childhood want. I love her, she's so pretty.

I adore Sparkler! She's one of my very favorite G1s now, although when I was a kid and more obsessed with symmetry, her symbol really bothered me.

Her curls are a little wild, but that's just the 80s in her. ;)

If I ever get vv lucky, I'd love to get an Argie Baby Sparkler!

There's an Argie Baby Sparkler?

She's on my want list, but I do feel stubbornly compelled to find her in the wild. I really like her understated design and interesting colour scheme. :)

I have her US version, but I dont know what kind of nirvana ones she has. I would like at least one nirvana one some day.

I have three versions!

I have her US version, but I dont know what kind of nirvana ones she has. I would like at least one nirvana one some day.

The regular release, the Italian version of the regular release, and the CP version with the dark purple hair! I'll take a photo of them all together later today!

She has some pretty good Nirvanas, especially the baby!

Well, I felt like cleaning her up during the day, but her head is sadly yellowed as well as other parts of her body. She's far from the mint-est. I want to sunfade her, is she safe to do so, please ? Thanks ! ^_^

She should be, I haven't her of her burning or being prone to it :)

Definitely on my want list. She sure is one pretty lady!

I have her; she came to me all the way from America and is totally gorgeous!

I have a regular version (who came from Italy; not sure if she was sold there originally or was imported as part of someone's collection) and an Italian one (who came from Germany, and was bald when I got her; she's been rehaired now).

I so want both versions of her.

She wasn't sold here, so your chances of doing that are pretty slim :( Unless Basic Fun make a retro one of course.

Just saw a pic of Baby Sparkler. She's a beautiful little pony!
