Ooh, I did a couple of those ideas you pitched!

*Regular Dainty Dove
* Regular Moonshine/ Moon Shadow

It's such a shame that G2 babies are more difficult to come by. I think we need more G2 baby customs

I would love  a beach themed playset too I might try to make a tropical G2 in the near future

and and....! I finally got all my toy catalogues. It took soooo long though! But the second one has the weird Dainty Dove prototype in it <3

I did some updating on LavenderLagoon.com as well. Now my 2 oddball/ prototype babies have been added to the information page: http://www.lavenderlagoon.com/prototypes.html

:0!! More prototypes? N Y O O M

Just to put my theories out there

Oddball - I think she might've been produced as Sunsparkle's baby but the design changed for some reason, resulting in the baby we now know. The colour may be the closest to Baby Dew, but it's too purple imo, so could it started off as Moonshadow/Moonshine's baby?

I think that's the closest in colour, at least time wise. An even closer match exists in Autumn (imo) but she was produced in 2003 so I'm not sure. Or I could be over thinking things and she could've had too much of a certain pigment added. The symbol might've been a prototype design for Dart/Dash, Stardust/Moondust or Dew, or maybe just an unused design for a cancelled pony. They might've just stamped on a random symbol to show a technically finished item for the boss people. It'd match up with the 2000 twins as a few have headgear and it's the year Dew was released.

Jewel/sparkle - A semi related theory, where they pitched the initial designs to boss people on a display (hence the painted eyes) and got feedback on it. It could've even been an eyeless blank with just a symbol and maybe a designer painted them for their kids.

How they ended up where they were - idk, maybe they were thrown in the trash and rescued, on someone's desk when they were fired or retired, maybe even stolen, found in some old boxes in someone's attic or old Hasbro storage unit.

Ooh tropical G2! So many ideas! Maybe a whole set? Maybe even Tropical Babies?

Yay toy catalogues!! Are they going to be scanned and uploaded to your website? I want to see this weird Dainty Dove!

She could have been Sundance's baby, or part of a twin set. We might never know! It was pure coincidence that my green oddball actually turned up in a French Toy Catalogue! So I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this one will turn up as well, I mean she's a finished-ish product like my Apple Meadow.
Jewel/ Sparkle is more of a prototype-ish pony. Let's say she's heavier than the usual baby

Aaaah, yes. Prototypes.
Here's Dainty Dove:

I'll be making more scans. It also has the prototypes of Moonshadow and Tipsy Tulip in them.
I might have to make a seperate toy catalogue page though, my prototype page is getting way too long!

@ZeldaTheSwordsman:

Sundance is great. I loved her in the PC game
Hopefully you'll get more G2 soon!

Ackk the mystery is too much!!

Omg she Dainty Dove! That's so interesting! i think they might've just cut out the legs to show what the product would be, as there's parts that would block or severely impact the ability to move the legs. I do think this pose is much more elegant and fits much more with the whole playset though.

And Tipsy tulip and Moonshadow prototypes? That's so cool I look forward to seeing them! Are they any different to their final form?
