I found my My Little Pony!!

My mom called and said she found my old My Little Pony with the wings and white hair. I could’ve sworn it was a unicorn with wings, but it turns out, there’s no horn. It’s…a Pegasus. Coincidence?

Here’s the link to a pic of the same one I had in 1987. It should be in the mail soon.

What’ the furry thing on the left of the pony? I don’t remember that coming with the my little ponies. Not that I played with MLP’s of course. I was busy with… uh… GI joe and sports.

Oh man, that’s the funniest thing I’ve seen today! What is that little thing? It has to be some sort of hairy gnome, since frogs don’t have fur. And you can tell this is one high class pony with all that tinsel in her hair.

My personal favorites…

Little Pony?? Wha?

I’m still searching for my Stompers trucks.

Lol StevieSpin. I have no idea what that little thing is that comes with it. Some kind of lucky gnome I guess. And if you didn’t have a MLP, you totally missed out. :wink:

Number 13 - A classy lady indeed. I think her actual name is supposed to be “Princess Tiffany” in the “Butterfly Pose” (whatever that is). Good thing I never knew that as a kid.

How 'bout a picture of that Falcon?

Ah yes… the Falcon. And don’t forget the Tie Fighter! I’ll get photos!!

As I understand it Olmost, you also have a Darth Vader with his sword AND cape!! Impressive… most impressive.

Yes, the Force is strong in this one… er… eh… I mean me! :wink:

Is there a way to upload photos? I’d like to share the Falcon!

Get a flickr acct. and add it to the GWC pool.

I just now realized that my first My Little Pony’s name was…Firefly. cool.

I still say that the greatest Star Wars toys came out from Micro Machines. I still have the awesome Deathstar/Tatooine (gawd I hope I spelled that right :p) combo playset sitting on my shelf. Mostly because I don’t want to risk shoving it into a box.

I bought my daughter a my little pony castle and about 5 ponys for 3 buck at a Thrift store. She likes them. She just discovered my He-Man and She-Ra Best of DVDs. She knows alot of the characters names. She also has been doing a Poke mon move or something. She says, “I choose bibble use bumble bee.” She is only three.

Only 5.99? Audra, these are for you…

It’s kinda like, if Mr. Ed had ever been voted into the oval office, this would be be what was in Disney’s The Hall of Presidents.

I just don’t know how I feel about an expensive non-walking reactive robot pony.
-On one hand it’s another example of American excess, parental over-compensation and our disconnect with nature.
-On the other, it’s a big robot pony.

Oh, the duality of man.

Hey Audra,
Is this the kind of gateway toy that lead you from My Little Pony to Sci-fi land?

So…I walk into my brother-in-law’s house last night after a long day. My awesome five year old niece comes running up to me, gives my knees a big hug and exclaims, “I have a pony! I have a pony!” “What do you mean you have a pony?” I responded. She looked at me with a cross face and simply said, “Come here!” and with that dragged me into her room where this thing was.

It is hard to describe. It is big, not huge. It sort of moves around in that Chuck-e-cheese Pirates of the Caribbean really bad motion. It is impressive that it is engineered so that the child actually can climb on top of it. Slap it’s hind and it makes a sound like you are trotting along. Stick a carrot in its mouth and it pretends to chew.

All-in-all I really wasn’t impressed. I am pretty sure that this will soon become a humorous footnote next to Teddy Ruxpin and other less than well executed attempts at robo-toys. I am sure this expensive plaything will be yesterday’s news sooner than not.
