Title: Different material on Happy Tails ponies?
Post by: LadyAmalthea on March 10, 2021, 10:33:05 AM
I acquired my first Happy Tails pony in a bait lot recently. After cleaning her up, I realized she is really in good shape, other than her tail being a bit dry and possibly having had a trim, since it seems a little short.

One thing I've noticed, though...she is really extra squishy! Almost like she's made of silicone or something rather than the regular plastic ponies are made of. I don't have any others from this set to compare her to--does anyone know if these ponies were made out of something different? Maybe because of her mechanism or something? I'm just curious!

Yes they’re all rubbery I think! I was shocked when I got mine too! I’m also guessing it’s to make squeezing them easier  ^.^

I have several and they're all quite squishy.

Okay, that's good! Just wanted to make sure there wasn't something wrong with her. It's an interesting gimmick...it's like the tail flicks back and forth rather than actually spins around like I thought it would; sort of like a real horse does when it's swatting a bug away!

I have a few as well, all much softer than regular ponies. I'm assuming to make them easier to squeeze for little kiddo hands.

I have one that was tail less so I gave her a squeaker from a dog toy.
