And he wants to make it big and have all these extra mechanical things in it. My Pretty Pony was relatively successful, selling a couple million units. Hasbro filed a patent for My Little Pony in August ; it was granted two years later.
The bright ponies we know and love were not what Zacherle initially had in mind. Generation 1. These ponies—which are skinnier than their predecessors—are not popular with collectors. The ponies released as part of G3 more closely resembled the G1 ponies. In , the dramatically-redesigned G3. The current generation, G4 , was released in and includes ponies from the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic animated series.
Hasbro has released ponies in the United States. The company also released its molds to companies all over the world. Someone found a stash of mint-in-box '80s Venezuelan Ponies, and of course, they went on eBay and sold them to collectors.
Sunbow partnered with the animation arm of Marvel to create cartoons for G. Joe, Transformers, and, yes, My Little Pony. The second special, Escape from Catrina , aired in March The success of the specials led to a greenlight for the very first My Little Pony movie.
The show, which premiered in September , ran for two seasons. Potato Head's family. Breckin Meyer voiced one of the characters. It aired for one season and then in syndication. The first live-action Transformers movie, which was released in July , made a boatload of money for Hasbro. This was likely Friendship is Magic. The total is around ponies.
Every variant that I have seen so far is counted. I had no idea there were that many. Awesome G3 checklist Lancer! I'll have to count them when I have more time. Thanks guys for the info.!

I didn't know there was THAT many. Joined Jul 25, Messages 1, My hopes are just having all the ones I really like.
I think you're right Jagular, the re-releases are just torture. I just collect one of every pony that has multiple poses and re-releases. I don't have the room for all the "duplicates. But now, I view it as I can eventually find a pony I love in a pose I actually like!
Well then she comes out on a scooter and looks so much cuter! Of course, I also like her pose as a bonus pony with Lily Lightly Seaponies , named very similarly to G1 Sea Ponies , first appear in the storybook Under the Sparkling Sea , where the main characters go to the underwater kingdom of Aquastria. They resemble sea horses and are referred to as "cousins" of the earth-based ponies.
Mermares , named somewhat similarly to G3. Mermares are described as more introverted, bigger, and faster than seaponies. Neither kind of submarine ponies bear a cutie mark. Coral and Arrow are seaponies; Electra is a mermare. More seaponies later appear in seasons eight and nine of the show. Kirin [note 1] are a type of pony first mentioned on an expanded map of Equestria in a location called Kirin Grove.
They are formally introduced in the season eight episode Sounds of Silence. Kirin are described as a peaceful tribe "known for their kindness and truth-speaking". But when they lose their temper, they transform into beasts of fire and rage called Nirik —"Kirin" spelled backwards, pluralized as "Nirik" or "Niriks".
After their tempers resulted in the accidental destruction of their home, the Kirin leader Rain Shine forced them to step through the Stream of Silence and suppress their voices and emotions so that it doesn't happen again. They have a large culture, with lots of singing, dancing, musical theatre, and stand-up jokes.
Like unicorns, Kirin can also use telekinesis. Prior to the map of Equestria's inclusion of Kirin Grove, a hypothetical Qilin encounter was addressed in a December 29, Twitter conversation with Jim Miller. Apart from the above terms, others are sometimes employed: Trixie boasts in Boast Busters that she is destined to be "the greatest equine who has ever lived"; Sapphire Shores mentions "Clothes Horse magazine" in A Dog and Pony Show ; and Braeburn refers to other ponies as "horses" in Over a Barrel.
Zecora is a zebra and explicitly stated not to be a pony — despite being the only other creature to feature a cutie mark.
Like Zecora, they have cutie marks and all speak in rhyme. Cranky Doodle Donkey is a donkey as his name implies; Matilda is another donkey. The draconequus Discord is introduced in The Return of Harmony and "has the head of a pony and a body made up of all sorts of things", says Cheerilee in that episode.
The changelings are equine-like insect creatures introduced in A Canterlot Wedding - Part 2. Granny Smith wears a horse mask in Scare Master. The Breezies are tiny, magical fairy-like creatures that have distinct pony attributes and body shapes, whilst also having large, clear wings and antennae. In the third generation of the My Little Pony toy line, Breezies were originally considered an official pony type, as previous generation Breezies had cutie marks , whilst in contrast the fourth generation Breezies are completely blank-flanked.
Abada are equine-like creatures from the zebra country of Farasi. They are similar to unicorns, except they have two curved horns one in front that's shorter than the other , thin and slightly angular bodies, backswept ears, and thin tails. In African mythology, the abada is an animal similar to a unicorn that has two crooked horns instead of a unicorn's single straight horn.
Lyra Heartstrings sitting like a human. The show's developer, Lauren Faust , wanted the ponies to act in ways characteristic of horses and avoid human conventions that wouldn't fit with their stylization, like human poses, holding items in their hooves, sitting in chairs, and driving vehicles such as cars and trains.
Despite this, season two and onwards saw the show incorporate more human-like stylization as new artists joined the show. Most of the time, ponies hold objects with their mouths, with their "wrist", between their hooves, by using magic or wings, or simply just with a single hoof: ponies hold shovels in their hooves in Winter Wrap Up , and Octavia Melody and Fiddly Twang "hold" their instruments' bow with one hoof.
In Pinkie Pride , Pinkie Pie uses a sticky tape-like substance to hold a bubble blower onto her hoof. Modern Ponish is largely identical to the real-life English language and alphabet ; Olde Ponish is loosely similar to real-life Old English. And they represent the home team of Ponyville. And as Pinkie says, 'Pee for Ponyville. Harshwhinny , and Applejack move their hooves to imitate air quotes ; as part of the point of air quotes is that the two fingers of each hand represent the two curved lines of the quotes, this gives the impression of single quotation marks ' rather than double quotation marks ".
In Parental Glideance , Bow Hothoof and Windy Whistles plug their ears using their wings, Spitfire and Fleetfoot use their wings to salute, and Rainbow Dash counts off on her wing feathers like fingers. In The Washouts , Rolling Thunder uses a wing to wrap a bandage around one rear leg while gesturing with her front legs. Ponies applaud in the series in two different ways. A hoof-bump, also known as high-hoof or brohoof, [7] imitates either a handshake, high-five, or even a fist bump.
Ponies bump their hooves in several instances in the series:.
