I was obsessed with both the toys and the original cartoon as a kid, and my biggest regret was being born just a few years too late for the ponies that starred in the cartoon to be available in stores. My older siblings had a few that they gave me when they grew out of them, and my favorite was Baby Moondancer because at some point I had seen the special episode she starred in.

 

Now over three decades later I still love both the show and the toys! My personal collection policy is that I want to try to get most of the ponies that appeared in the cartoon, and I’m well underway, only missing some baby ponies that I’m not entirely sure if I want, and Mimic, who is too expensive. I might attempt a custom one day, but I’m also holding onto the hope that maybe someday there will be a repro.

 

Currently my favorite pony is Morning Glory! My favorite part of the cartoon is “The End of Flutter Valley” because I had it on VHS as a kid and watched it over and over again. I wanted flutter ponies so bad, but there was no way for me back then to even know what the toys looked like! Now I have the full set of the ponies that appeared in the special, but Morning Glory is my absolute favorite.
