80's Weekend: Several My Little Pony commercials!

Of course, My Little Pony is still with us! Just in a different form. But I still think these first ones were the best. So many poses! Boy ponies! Sea Ponies!

I always kind of get sticker shock when I buy a pony nowadays. Back in the day, five bucks bought a pony big as my hand. Now they're teensy-tiny, and they're still five bucks.






This one just doesn't seem right without "Shoo-be-doo, Shoo-shoo-be-doo!"


The early baby ponies had cutie marks, but I will give the newer cartoon that the idea that you have to find your special talent to get your cutie mark works really well.


I had SEVERAL of these ones!

I love the original MLP toys! I still have most of mine from childhood and buy more whenever I can find a good price on them. I'm really sad that everyone now associated My Little Pony with Friendship is Magic which as a long time old school pony fan I highly dislike, I just can not get over the art. I like my ponies cute and chubby (except the sweetheart sisters which were thinnner but still pretty cute).
