Not all ponies got black eyeliner you can get shades of grey, brown and even navy in the G3 ponies.I have had a few brown eyed parasols through my hands over time. It is not always the case the eyeliner colour indicates variation as bluerose mentioned, but it is sometimes a clue especially in the case of the Scandinavian Truly and Cupcake.Love pkw xxx
Black / blue-black tends to be an earlier release, while brown is more commonly found in the later years of G1 after the switch to China manufacture from Hong Kong in non-Nirvanas - neither is more sought after than the other though, they'll fetch the same price. That said, it's quite common to find variations in black/blue-black/brown-black all through the G1 run. Factories weren't very consistent on what constituted 'black'.
