Pony Urban Legends

[Tropical_Sunset]

Wasn't there a urban legend about 'the Mysterious Pony' seen in Firefly's adventure? I think it was she was supposed to be released with the Pretty Parlor? Anyone know the full legend?

Oh yes, the unnamed white pony with rainbow hair and a rainbow for a symbol! People were claiming she was supposed to come with the Pretty Parlor because in both scenes in Firefly's Adventure she is seen with an orange tabby cat riding on her back (and the cat comes with the Parlor). But as far as I know, there's never been a prototype seen of her or any evidence that a toy of her was supposed to exist. (Though I've seen some nice customs of her!)

Oh my gosh!  I recently watched Firefly's Adventure and spotted that pony and wondered "who the heck is THAT?"    I just assumed it was a pony I wasn't too familiar with and left it at that.  It's totally weird that she doesn't actually exist, given how specific looking her character looks!

Awesome thread.    I want to see more pics associated with all these mysteries!

What about the First Tooth Sundance? I spotted it on a comercial.

Here's:

She's a prototype and never commercially produced, though there was at least at some point one of her (used for the catalog/commercial, as an art reference, etc.)

Random tangent: *watches commercial* ...why is the ice cream shop shaped like a shoe?

The rainbow pony commercial promo at the end of fireflys adventure makes me NUTS!

I want to believe that it's really out there!

"Well, it seems like the mystery has finally be solved ^_^! Someone emailed me and told me that he used to work in a video store, and thus had the opportunity to buy the videos for his sister. He suggests visiting a Suncoast Video and asking them to research MLP videos. "Chances are there'll be an unfamiliar title in there! It will be pricey because it's rare, but it is in existance!".

This was posted on that website and I remember somone coming forth years ago and claiming this! Somone needs to contact that company and put an end to this madness!

Eh. I've searched imdbpro.com and nothing new MLP comes up.

It's easy to say anything online lol. No proof = doubtful

In 2004 Rhino Studios put out a dvd set that included all the season 1 episodes plus both short animation specials (Firefly's Adventure and Escape from Catrina). Within a year they also put out other dvd's that included the full-length movie and all the season 2 episodes. If they were able to put out all of that, you would think they would have put out the rainbow-hair pony special as well, if it really existed.

I think we can all agree that the 'rainbow haired pony special' is that stuff that pony urban legends are made of.

[Starie]

That BBE pony is... the creepiest pony I have ever seen O_O

Haha exactly this! It makes me CRAZY! Knowing that it MIGHT be out there but also MIGHT not be!

Is there a chance that pony could be Starbow? Or maybe Raincurl??

I don't think they were made yet.

There was definitely no pony of that design existing at the time, Midnight Castle came out in what, year 2? 3?  Early on, that's for sure. My guess would be she's just an extra put in to "fill out the ranks" because they needed another pony in some shots.

Random response: This drives me crazy too..someone had a few too many alcoholic beverages when that one was conjured up...."A sweet shop what shall we make it look like...a house? no...a giant ice cream cone? no....a sundae? no...a shoe? PERFECT!"

[Yuitsu]

Yeah I never understood that logic either. Satin Slipper ice cream shop. *boggles* If it were selling pony shoes, it'd make perfect sense. But no. Food stuffs. Also the ONLY food shop in Ponyland if I remember rightly.


I still want to know where the babies came from before the boy ponies showed up. Or did they do finding them in a cabbage patch and stuff?
