Little Beauties Horses
« on: Saturday 13 March 2010, 01:17 pm »
Little Beauties were a series of ponies which came in two sizes. They were brightly coloured and had moulded clothing and brushable hair. They are marked "'Copyright MT 1988'.

Jana's is the only picure I have (from the Identified Toys section). Does anyone know anything more about these horses or have any images I can use to create a section for them?

I have a scanned backcard for the ones with clothes... somewhere. I'm really interested in the carousel ones... that's the ones I had growing up.

I've managed to get a lot more than those now, plus a MIB carousel one and some twins.  I will try and take some nice pics of them for you pronto :)

I think that we decided that the carousel ones were Little Pretties as well, even though they weren't wearing outfits.

I've gotten pics taken of most of them now and will be emailing you in the next few days with them.  Be on the look out!

I thought I'd post these here in case anyone was interested in seeing them early.  :D I have six different ones. I'd love to know if they have names or if there are more. I picked these up here and there back when I was collecting MLPs more. Some have haircuts, but others still have their long hair.











I love this sea-themed one. I wish I had one in better shape!



This night/celestial design is my favorite.

I have the sea-themed blue one and the yellow one. I think one was my sister's actually. I was usually good at keeping accessories to my toys but I seem to have lost the base? I could have sworn they came with them...

Oooh, Eilonwe, you have the white carousel one!  That is the one I am missing!  She is gorgeous!

You better look out!  Jeanette, and now the white carousel LB... don't tell me where you live, lol.  I'd have to invest in a catsuit and a goodie bag  ;D

I have one of the carousel stands remaining, which will hopefully help out when the page for them gets up.  Here's a preview of the pics I have:

Oh my gosh... I had sworn for years that the backcard had a picture of the carousel on it... and it does! I didn't imagine it! (I think I thought it was specific to the carousel horses and not all of them with the styling gimmick, but oh well).

I knew I couldn't have imagined the base since they have a hole (I knew they were carousel horses after all)... it's even the color I remember.

I think I was somewhere between 4 and 5 when I got this... amazing how much I remembered from that young (mom would throw out all the wrappers, of course).

Seriously, I can't believe how good my memory was of something from 20 years ago when I was that young...

Don't like the fashion ones, though. A bit too "Charlie the Unicorn" looking for my tastes.

Ooo, fab pics! I have the safari one with blue hair in my childhood toy collection. And I had some of the minis, but might have sold them.

I like these two:

I'll have to keep an eye out for them. And an upgrade for my sea-themed carousel one.

On one hand, it's really cool to see the carded one and based on the artwork, I think I have them all. But on the other hand, I'm disappointed they don't have names!

The pony listed as "Blue Pose 2" in the Carrousel section is really more of a green shade. Like seafoam green, but darker.
