She looks very nice in green, but I personally prefer the pink and white hair. She doesn't seem like herself without it.
I seem to remember the first publicity photos of G3 MLPs that I ever saw included a prototype Minty with green and white hair. She was packaged with a G1 shooting star brush (which was also green!) Surely that photograph must still be knocking around the internet somewhere? There was a photo of a dark purple G3 with Toola Roola's cutie mark at the same time (also with a G1 brush in the packet with her). Can't remember what name was written on the purple G3's box though.
Sorry, I don't remember seeing an in-box Minty prototype, but I did save a copy of this old promo picture of the 2003 Glitter ponies, including green-haired Minty.

The Toola Roola prototype was mocked up in a Kimono box.
This is a color combo I wish they'd kept!

Perhaps that's what I was thinking of then. There were photos in a kids' comic here in the UK when the G3s were first released, and I'd swear the photo showed both the Kimono/Toola Roola hybrid and the green haired Minty MIB. But I could be getting mixed up. Wish I knew what happened to that magazine!
