I think of these sets as "Pony Friends" sets as I see a pattern, they are similar content wise and time wise and the cards are in the same style. Not all of them actually have "Pony Friends" on them though. Those who do are:Pony Friends (Swedish set)Amis Jolis (French set)Pony Freunde (German set)Maybe the Spanish one too - not sure what "Pony Caricias" translates to? (in any case that is the spanish counterpart)The German pony you posted is not a part of the Pony Freunde set, it doesn't have "Pony Freunde" on the card (and Bowtie is not included in that set).The Gypsy / straight hair CJ set is the UK counterpart I think, although it doesn't really have a "set name"....
In that case, if Bow Tie is not part of the Pony Fruende, that segregates the UK 1986 set from the "Pony Friends" concept pretty decisively. Bow Tie is on that set's UK card, and in Germany that's clearly also Mein Kleines Pony, which means that the Pony Freunde set in Germany too must have had a different style of card again?I tend to think of Pony Friends as an amalgamation of ponies sold in different years (yr 3 CJ, 1986 Hopscotch,) plus some new (white Tootsie/Truly/Cupcake) which are unique to specific lines. But, because these ponies (curly CJ, Hopscotch) are not sold in the same set in the UK, I can't classify them as the same :-/.
Ah, sorry, that was me getting them mixed up (that will happen to you when you're trying to type, eat chocolate brownie and chat on skype at the same time). That is the one I had - back when I was collecting Italians I don't remember the pink haired one being known about, and I think she's the harder to find, correct?Whereas with the HK ones in the UK, the one with straight hair is harder to find. I assumed that was because everyone apparently bought the original, probably because of that wretched picture disc xD and so few kids were interested in her the next year (but there are some about so I guess the ones that missed it got the song tape a bit later and then wanted her >.>)Hi Lolipouxi Thank you for your help Je vous en remercie And wow, armies of early ponies I wish I had the space. My sister does have a small Posey and a Cotton Candy army, though...
