Phasing out plastic packaging?

That makes me think of vintage barbie packaging. They were a simple paper box with art on it, no plastic window or anything. So people buying it didn't know what the doll inside actually looked like, they just had to go by the art representing the doll.

I don't like the idea of that being done with modern toys.

G3s are retro now? Those look nice but what I would really love is new G3s, as in new characters instead.

I like her pose and symbol but pink body color is boring.

I like her but I don't have her.

(Why the G3-icon in the topic though?)

Thanks for sharing the Christmas story. I have never seen it before, it must be a very rare item.



Also found this image featuring some cards which must've been from my first year at school or thereabouts. I do remember these being sold as a set of cards. I have two of the Powder one I think, two people sent it to me the same year xD. I don't have any of the others. I am sure there were four or five designs in the box though. I may have had some to send to friends since the ones I still have were sent to me but because I remember the box I must have had them myself at some point as well...

Yes, Hasbro again promoting those ponies we didn't get here -.-. Let's just spam Powder everywhere...
visitors can't see pics , please register or login

They are also both dated 1986. I think I started school in November 1986 or thereabouts so I may have had them that year or they may have been out again the next year.

I have that Christmas card box and some of the cards from it. I think there are five different cards? I'll try to post a picture later.

I love the shy pose. And Heart Throb is my favourite. It's like the pose was made for her. (I guess maybe it actually was since she was one of the first ponies in that pose)

Pony Corral / Re: What pony would you like to see in 'reverse colors'?

A blue Tootsie with apple green hair.

A baby pink Posey with yellow hair and yellow tulips.

The other thread also mentions Powder being paler. I don't have any ponies I can confirm as Scandinavian release for the set except Moondancer, so I am super curious about all these minor variations that maybe exist...


I'm curious about that too. I have seven out of the eight ponies from that set. Six of them bought on card in a toy store here so I know they are the fable version. One of them being Powder. But I don't have the other version of them (US sold) so I don't have anything to compare with.

I've seen white Tootsie on cards that match the Groom & Style card here, too - are those from Scandinavian origin? I have seen Dutch ones but the artwork matches the US card instead, so I am guessing...?


Not sure what exactly your question is here but the Tootsie we got in that set is white, yes.


Whether they were in Scandinavia on the UK style of card or the one with the US artwork ;) Sorry ;)

White Tootsie was on the same type of card as Snowflake.



This is the post I was thinking of, regarding a possible Glory etc:

It's cool that you're interested in these details, I'm fascinated by those variants too.

The carded Baby Firefly was from Sweden and has glittery symbols, I have seen the same version sold in the Netherlands. With Baby Firefly I also got an adult Surprise with the original card from the same owner and according to the seller both were bought together with some Rainbow ponies from the same shop at the same time.

Surprise was from the Scandinavian Unicorns and Pegasus set which included Powder, Skyflier, Gusty (green eyes), Sparkler, Firefly (curly), Medley (curly), Heartthrob, Glory, Moondancer (yellow). Interestingly Moondancer, Powder, Glory, and Medley were not shown nor mentioned on their backcards. The Rainbow ponies had similar European art and were the second set (Confetti, Trickles, etc...).

(from this thread: http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,392523.15.html)

So as far as we know the set numbers eight but the card pictures six?


That is my opinion yes, and it used to be consensus. But I'm a bit out of the loop, I don't know if any new information has been found. I'll see if I can find the thread I was thinking about.
