Subject: My Little Pony

Quite the craze around the mid-80s, even did a movie on them! These were just dolls really, in may unique colors, they didn't do anything. I guess such as baseball cards or action figures, you try to collect as many as you can. How many of the women on the board had one of these?

My sister had about half a dozen and yes I was guilty of watching a few episodes with her  ;D

LOL! I know, we sometimes had to watch what our younger bros and sisters were watching, me included. They did have a show too, I forgot.

What came first the cartoon or the toys? The cartoon started in Sept 1986, but it seems kinda late in the day as my sister would've been 11 yrs old, and I doubt she would've been playing with ponies at 11?!?!

Okay, the toys came out in 1982 which now makes total sense.

I guess these toys tried to mix two 'typical' girls interests of dolls and horses.  Never owned one myself (I was about 12 when they came out).  My daughter has one proper one and a couple from McDonalds.

I had many My Little Ponies... and it's funny my mom kept them all for me and gave them to me last year when she moved...I'm 25 now, and it was cool to see them again.  They all have different designs stamped on their butts...a star, a butterfly...and I could'nt part with them.  Mabey someday I'll have a daughter and she'll play with them.
