Think Lady Clutterstep also the first run was an blank flank an later reissue called My Pretty Pony and Beautiful Baby added an cutie mark and included an normal sized brushable Butterscotch as the baby.

They started out with six... interesting. The original "Mane 6"? Let me get this straight. 1981 toy was the cutie markless brown pony toy. But 1982 was when true cutie marked MLP began?

But 1982 was when true cutie marked MLP began? the actual MLP toyline began in '82 but late in 81 the MPP toy was repainted pink and gained her cutie mark. the first 6 ponies were Cotton Candy, iButterscotch ,,Blossom,, Blue Belle,, Minty, and Snuzzle all earth ponies. ironically this makes Minty the oldest pony name still in use by hasbro. Applejack was Year 2 83-84 when the other breeds were born. http://www.kimsites.net/dreamvalley/2nd_edition_ponies.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bonnie originally only planned on normal ponies when the line came out Hasbro pushed for fictional breeds to add more fantasy to the mix and give Marvel more to work with as they were making the cartoon..

Lord Seraph 74 Report post Posted August 28, 2016 You know I wonder if G4 will ever be able to use ideas from those Rainbow Ponies line and expand on Rainbow Dash's background. They could have a Rainbow Clan thing going on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Interesting... coincidentally, they also have a zebra in the mix. you found MLP's Care Bear Frends equivalent line late in G1 they tried to keep it going by selling other pastel animals with cutie marks including my little bunny in y9. ZigZag is literally the toy that Zecora was based on but less pink seeing that Faust based her FIM show bible on how she played with her G1 toys basically G4 is Hasbro letting the old fans run the show.like they did with transformers. also see the first pony box.

I could name at least 20 toy lines, not even well known that were just plain awesome, and gave kids creative play freedom. If only those kind of things could be made today, maybe kids would actually get off the electronics and...play with something. I had weird things I enjoyed, even crazy pony fakies, and each had their own story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
