| Year
4 Ponies |
Year 4 had five
sets of ponies plus a new Megan & Sundance and the introduction
of Molly & Baby Sundance and a new set of Plush
Ponies. There were also several non US variations
and alternatives. There was one set of special offer ponies,
six playsets (including two re-issues), one accessory and
three pony wear sets.
|
| Baby Ponies [German
set] |
These ponies were only
sold in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. Baby Cotton Candy
from Year 3's Baby Ponies set was included
in this set along with four exclusive new baby ponies and
one which was also released in the UK (Baby Lemon Drop,
c/w Baby Pony Stroller) but posed differently.
Each pony came with a bottle,
teddy bear brush and a ribbon.

"Cute and
cuddly...Baby Ponies feature Beddy-Bye eyes that open and

Baby
Ponies with Beddy-Bye Eyes
had eyes which opened and closed, and also had eye
lashes.
This set was not sold

with regular eye as part of the Baby Ponies
Play and Care set in UK. Baby Lickety-Split
was also released as part of Year 5's Baby
Ponies with First Tooth set.
Each pony came with
one large accessory and a variety of small accessories.
They also came with a brush or comb, ribbon and scented
body sticker.

Brazilian Variations
Brazil had two variations
of the BBE ponies, both with regular eyes. I don't know
what accessories they came with or in what set but do
know Brazil only ever had five baby ponies released (the
other three being Baby Cotton Candy, Baby Cuddles and
Baby Tiddlywinks) so maybe they were sold as a set.
|
| Baby Pony Play
& Care [UK Set]
|
 |
Baby Pony Play & Care
set was the UK's alternative to
the US's Beddy-Bye Eyes set. It
included four af the same characters but all had
regular eyes. Baby
Lickety-Split was also released as part
of Year 5's Baby Ponies with First Tooth
set.
All accessories remained the same
as the BBE set (see above) except wherever the word
diaper appeared it now read nappy.

| Flutter Ponies |
|
"It's
easy to pretend your Flutter Ponies can fly...just
push a button and their iridescent wings flutter
gracefully. Each pony comes with a styling hairpick,
metallic ribbon and a scented body sticker."
Flutter
Ponies were smaller then the other ponies
with long, thin legs and extra long, curly hair.
They had delicate iridescent plastic wings that
easily broke. The wings were inserted into a shell
shaped button on their backs which when pressed
made their wings move up and down. A second set
of Flutter Ponies was released in Year 5 and two
differently designed winged ponies were released
in Years 6 and 7.
Each pony came with
a flower hair pick, metallic ribbon and scented
body sticker.

Sundance |
"It's always a happy
day when Molly and Baby Sundance come to play. Molly is
fully dressed, with bendable legs to ride on Baby Sundance
or other baby ponies. Baby Sundance has Beddy-Bye eyes
that open and shut, bridle and ribbon. Brush and scented
body sticker also included."
|
In Year 4, Megan
was given a younger sister named Molly
who came with her own pony, Baby Sundance,
who had Beddy-Bye Eyes. They
came with a bridle, brush, comb and body sticker
that featured them both. They were not sold in the
UK.
A prototype model
of Baby Sundance was produced with a First Tooth,
but this was never put into production. She was
only ever seen in a US promotional Hasbro booklet
and a TV advert for the Satin Slipper Sweet Shoppe
in this body type.

| Pretty 'n Pearly
Baby Sea Ponies [+ UK set] |
US Set
|
UK Set |
Pretty n' Pony Baby Sea Ponies had
shimmery bodies. Surf Rider and
Sea Shimmer returned from Year
3 along with four new characters. They
had no symbols. Year 4 floats included two new shapes
(alligator and frog), as well as fish & turtle
from Year 3.
The UK version
had the same four new characters as the US set but
instead of Surf Rider and Sea Shimmer the set included
Tiny Bubbles and
Sea Star (both returning from Year
3). Ripple, Sunshower and Water
Lily were in slightly different poses with
their head facing forward (rather than up), so only
Beachcomber remained the same as
the US set.
Each pony came with a different
coloured whale shaped brush, and a round, scented
puffy sticker.

| So Soft Ponies
[+ UK/Euro & other unflocked sets] |
| "So
Soft Ponies love to snuggle up close. Their delicately-flocked
bodies feel so nice to touch. Straight-haired ponies come
with a hairbrush. Curly-haired ponies come with a comb.
Scented body sticker and ribbon come with all ponies."
|
So Soft
Ponies had flocked bodies with their symbols
just visible underneath. Year 4 had a total of twenty
two ponies, the most ever released in one set. Some
were old characters but many were new. In the US they
were released in two goes, with sixteen in 1985 and
six more added in 1986.
They were not sold
in the UK but instead nine were released
without flocking in their own set simply called Ponies
in the UK and Movie Stars in Europe,
and four more were also released unflocked in a select
few countries too in various other sets (see further
down for details).
Each pony came with
a brush or comb, ribbon, and scented body sticker.

in the UK, but was also called "Movie

None of the unicorns
and pegasi had glittery symbols as they had done previously.
There was also two symbol versions of Buttons released
at the same time in the UK and Magic Star changed
pose.
