The trim and grow beauties were, I think, sold WITH scissors. Certainly there's a very disturbing image in the Hasbro catalogue I have which shows "How to cut the pony's hair!" so trim and grow was not coincidental. I guess you vandalise your pony then put in the other plugs? I dunno. Very bad design idea. There are some really beautiful FSF ponies. I got rid of most of mine but I do have one with the fancy patterns on her body. I think she's a teal kind of shade. Those are very pretty. I always had FSF on my birthday and Christmas lists as well as MLP. I never had any, only MLP. I wonder what my family would have done if DBs had happened here..."Yay, MLP + FSF! Two in one!" possibly..?

I wanted them so badly as a kid, never had any. Maybe we should try putting a bug in Basic Fun's ear?Post Merge: April 29, 2019, 07:01:48 AMQuote from: sd_dreamcrystal on April 29, 2019, 04:29:25 AMThey likely won't attempt them again, I think. Hasbro has a tendency to forget some things existed... especially when they didn't last very long.I would love, however, to see them do something like Dream Beauties or even their never made Irresistibles.Fashion Star Fillies were sold in the 1980s by Kenner before that company was acquired by Hasbro in 1991. Dream Beauties were created after that so... I think in a since Fashion Star Fillies inspired Dream Beauties a littleWhat were Irresistibles?

In a way they were kinda in the G4 show; https://mlp.fandom.com/wiki/Saddle_Arabia_delegates
Yes. That's the same image.Edit, actually, maybe it's not the same image? Or a less zoomed out one? I dunno? Now so confused... *shudders*. Hasbro ,please DO NOT tell kids to cut pony hair. EVER! Though my catalogue has no caption and just has the cutting image.Hang on. I'll upload it.Edit: Here you go.Spoilervisitors can't see pics , please register or loginIsn't that more terrifying than the other one? Just presented like that?? And yes. Irresistibles. I should read threads more closely.
How can they be "All Grown Up" MLPs when plenty of regular MLPs had their own daughters?

Who knows? Maybe its like Pokemon evolution and DBs were there final form. They all have a Megastone.That advert is horrific to watch and I don't even like Barbie.And Hasbro only gave ONE refill for the T&G beauties. My ones fortunately have uncut plugs of hair but I don't have the alternate colour/refill ones, so I can guess what happened at some point in their life.Kid "Wow, I can cut the hair!"Kid (ten minutes later) It didn't grow back.Kid (cries)Mother (replaces hair with other colour) don't cut it again then!Trim & Grow is sort of false advertising really.I mean, Brush and Grow Tails sort of grew. And I had a couple of these as a kidhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ms-HV83GgV4Off topic butSpoilerFor some reason I remember the Ice Skater is called Holly. I definitely had her. The skates didn't fit ponies. The other one I had was called Polly, had red hair, and jelly shoes. Which also didn't fit ponies...you see a theme here. I didn't like dolls as a kid but those fascinated me with their hair thing to the point I remember them, their names, and kept them when I cleared a bunch of old toys from the attic a few years ago. Now if Hasbro had done something like that as an evolution of the BnG trick, then sign me up...Instead they give scissors and encouraging haircutting. Not good.
