Hasbro is never good at My Little Pony from day one. They never respect little girls enough to put in meaningful effort. The toys keep getting worse.
I do remember seeing a scan from a UK comic somewhereabouts that said to keep ponies out of sunlight to stop their "pretty colours fading" (or words to that effect). They might not have known about the pink hair specifically being an issue but they did know sunlight could cause colours to fade back then.edit: Aha, I found it! It was on LadyMoondancer's blog!visitors can't see pics , please register or login
I just looked at Tuneful's backcard and it looks like she was drawn as an Earth pony instead of a unicorn.http://mylittlewiki.org/wiki/File:Sweet-notes-backcard.jpgPonyfan
Why was G3 the only one without males?
Quote from: VanillaBeanHasbro's questionable name choices are hilarious. My family held quiz nights on Zoom during lockdown, & I drafted a round where they had to guess which pony names were fake & which were genuine. Nobody got any of them right. I had to show them proof that somebody had actually named a children's toy Pillow Talk. I strongly suspect that with G1's perennial thirst for new names, people occasionally slipped in naughty suggestions to see if corporate would catch them. And some slipped through.

I also don't get why the Baby Ponies were treated like new characters, rather than just the younger version of the pony they resembled. I don't know if all canons did this (the cartoon did, and there's a comic that has the baby ponies being cloned from a mirror), but I find it strange that they made baby versions of the adult ponies, and made them new/different characters (I'll check what the toyline did, but the cartoon could have easily have had flashbacks to when the adult version of whatever baby pony they wanted to market was younger...)
I found a Jem doll at the thrift store and I was FLOORED by how tall she is. An amazonian queen! But I get it, it would deflate any of Mattel's attempts to sue Hasbro and claim that Jem was a copy of Barbie.
