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!

The new cartoon is cute, but I really hate the current look of the toys. I had heaps of them - I still remember feuding with my then-best-friend when I got Melody, one of the first two pegasus ponies, which she thought I purchased simply to lord over her. Still have most of them sitting on a bookshelf. They're so cheerful and rounded and cute and not weirdly big-eyed and pointy-headed.
