| Baby Sea Ponies |
 |
Unlike adult Sea
Ponies, Baby Sea Ponies needed help to keep them afloat
in the water. The floats came in three variations
(duck, fish & turtle), each in a different colour.
They had no symbols.
Sea Shimmer
and Surf Rider returned in Year
4 as Pretty 'n Pearly Baby Sea Ponies
in the US, while Sea Star and Tiny
Bubbles were included in the UK
Pretty & Pearly Baby Sea Ponies.
Each Baby Sea Pony
came with a different coloured whale shaped brush,
and a round, scented puffy sticker. |
|
|
|
| Earth Ponies |
 |
Bow
Tie and Applejack made a
return from Year 2 in both US and
UK pose, only now with curly hair.
They each came with
a butterfly shaped brush, a ribbon and a round, scented
puffy sticker. |
|
|
|
| "Ember's Dream"
|
 |
This is the fourth version of
Ember to be made, and this time she had a symbol.
She came with a story tape. |
