This 1986 UK set was released as a standard assortment simply titled ‘My Little Pony’, it consisted of four new characters and two rereleases. The new Posey had magenta tulips and Cherries Jubilee came with straight hair. Each pony was given a bird brush and a ribbon in matching colours, with Posey and CJ’s being the most difficult to find.
In 2012 I hoped for Hasbro to celebrate the 30th anniversary of My Little Pony with a special G1 release aimed at adult collectors, sadly that was nothing but wishful thinking till I came across Pandabear’s beautiful custom work a year later and I realised then that I no longer needed Hasbro to get what I wished for! I instantly sent a message asking if she’d allow me to commission a few customs and to my surprise she promptly agreed!
I was most impressed with her Repunzel replicas, her customising skills and attention to detail was impeccable! We exchanged ‘research’ and discussed different ideas endlessly to reach the outcomes we wanted - what started out as a commission eventually turned into a long collaboration and a great friendship.
For our first project we decided to revisit the very beginning, I’ve always loved the original My Pretty Pony (or T.J) but her large size made her difficult to display with the rest of my collection and playsets, therefore creating a miniature replica seemed like the perfect commission.
It didn’t take long till she arrived home and I was astonished by Pandabear’s artistry, this probably was the pony I displayed on my shelves the longest. Two years later and I finally got a chance to photograph her, giving me the perfect opportunity to replicate the original My Pretty Pony promotional shots as there’s no better way to present her.
More of our projects to be shared soon!
“Fugitive Flowers” is my favourite episode from My Little Pony ‘n Friends (1986), the Flories were fierce! Watch the episode here!
I wish I kew where this came from, looks like a sticker sheet? Love it ♥
UK exclusives have been one of my obsessions in recent years and the ‘My Little Pony’ set from 1986 took me a long time to complete. Here it is displayed with my ‘Collection 4’ pony wear set which came out around the same time.
The first set of Rainbow Ponies as seen in the 1984 Toy Fair catalog, there are some differences compared to the released versions such as the lack of forelock and blush but most noticeably the unicorns were in Moondancer’s pose!
I wasn’t too fond of the Sparkle ponies till I had the opportunity to see them in person, Star Hopper in particular was one I never understood but have grown on me and has now been sitting on my shelf for weeks ♥

Baby Ponies with Beddy-Bye Eyes as seen in the Hasbro ‘86 Toy Fair catalog, these were hand painted prototypes and none had the eye feature except for the second Baby Heartthrob seen at the top and a modified Baby Ember on the facing page. This indicates that these ponies were initially designed as a continuation of the first baby set and the new BBE earth and unicorn molds were still not ready to be photographed when this picture was taken.
Love this Confetti paper doll.
I remember seeing this pack in stores as a child and not caring for it at all, it didn’t help that all the boxes had broken flutter wings and I thought the green baby looked odd. A seller offered it to me in beautiful condition last year for a reasonable price, after seeing it in person again I changed my mind and have newfound appreciation for it! I love the packaging and the assortment of vibrant colours are quite striking.

UK Grooming Parlour, probably my favourite MLP TV commercial.
Buggy with Baby Cuddles was one of the earliest boxed playsets I picked up, I had to include Lickety Split as she’s featured in both the TV commercial and the front of Baby Buggy’s box. Watch the commercial here!
