I am familiar with Bonnie Zacharle being the MLP creator, but I am not familiar with her beyond knowing that fact. As far as pony concept design and art goes, who did the art for the back cards? The puzzles? The UK comics?

When asked what my top favorite artists are, it would be only fair to include G1 art as my inspiration for my own art, but who drew it? Is there a database?

What are your most favorite pony memories as a child?  I really want to know the kind of ways you all played with your ponies or maybe fond memories of going to the store and having your parents pick out a pony.

I remember when I was young my father took me to Toys R Us and he let me pick out a pony to buy and I was having trouble choosing between Baby Boy Drummer and the one with the scottie dog on the side??? I forget the name but I asked my dad and he said that he liked Drummer better and I got Drummer...one of my favorite ponies of all time.

I also remember my mother taking me to Toys R Us and I was trying to choose between Dazzleglow and Starglow (i picked Dazzleglow)

And when I graduated pre-school I remember picking out a baby rainbow pony for my classmate's birthday party as a gift and looking at them all in a row on their cards and wanting them so bad. I chose baby Starbow.

I remember playing with my ponies in the pony estate (my cousins were very wealthy and had every playset so i got the hand-me-downs when my older cousin grew up. 90% of my ponies and toys were hand-me-downs. ) Filling the estate pool with water and having my ponies swim around.

And ordering the christmas baby pony from the baby of a rice krispies cereal box and waiting for her to come and then young and dumb me giving her a haircut with a lighter....(why?????) and the smell of burning plastic. I also remember trading baby ponies with a girl on my block.

One time when I was 10?? I went to Chuck E Cheese for my cousin's birthday and I remember one of my cousins saying "There's a my little pony you can get at the prize counter' and me seeing it and freaking out and my cousins helped me get enough tickets to get her (i think it was like 500 tickets???)

I would love to hear all of your fond memories. I wish I could go back in time in the 80s and early 9os and walk down the toys R Us pony isle. it would be like a dream.

I love baits! They have the least amount of hair, and their symbols are rubbing off and they have sharpie on them, but you know what? They are loved so much by children and adults! Not only that, but they are greatly priced in auctions and sales posts!

Please show me your best baits because I am here to see all the beautiful baits of the world with their terrific haircuts and dents.

I have been trying to find this toy's whereabouts for a while and every time I search I get zero results or anything that can even come close to an answer. I loved this wand as a kid...so much that I kept it along with my ponies. It's probably one of my most favorite childhood treasures. I don't know anyone that has had it.

It is a double A battery star wand that makes different sounds when you press a button at the handle. If you flick a switch on the underside of the star on the top, it changes the sound effects. One of them is the sound of birds tweeting, one of them is a woman saying "abracadabra" and another is a whooshing sound.
The side of the wand says Mattel 1990, but no matter what I search all that comes up is barbies and sailor moon stuff.

It is driving me nuts. I thought maybe there was a chance it was a Jem item since the star is similar to the star in the Jem logo but I don't think it was, and Jem is an early 80's show.

I just want to know. Can anyone help? Ive tried typing every word combination into the google search to no avail.
Anyways, here's the wand:

thank you for taking to time to read this!!

Every time I go to my local Goodwill they don't even have a section I could look for ponies in. They have a toy section, but all the items are brand new sealed toys made by Goodwill itself.


I have heard of people finding pony assortments in bags. Where would I look for such a thing?


And what have you found in your goodwill? G1? G2? G3?
