My Little Pony Collection

Hi, I'm Beth. I started collecting My Little Pony two years ago. Some of my favorite ponies are Mint Dreams, Princess Serena, Princess Taffeta, and Munchy. My favorite Nirvana pony is Nightlight. Since I grew up with Generation 1 ponies I didn't collect other generations until recently. Now I collect ponies of all generations. I also collect Vintage Littlest Pet Shop and Care Bears.

I started MyLittlePonyCollection.info as a comprehensive collector's guide to G1 United States, G1 European Exclusive, and G1 Nirvana, Generation 2 (G2), Generation 3 (G3) and Generation 4 (G4) My Little Ponies. I keep my own personal checklists of all known My Little Ponies. I decided to use this infomation to create a website to help other collectors keep track of their collections. This site is a work in progress for now. Over the next few weeks I will add My Little Pony identification information for all generations of MLP. I am also creating checklists to help collectors keep track of their ponies and accessories.

My Little Pony G1

Generation 1 (G1) My Little Ponies were the orginal ponies created by Hasboro. In most places, they were sold from 1982 through 1992. Though, they were sold in the Netherlands in 1995.

G1 My Little Ponies come in many shapes, sizes, and colors. There were Earth Ponies, Pegasi, and Unicorns. Some even had moveable wings! There were also mommy and baby ponies.

As of right now, I have counted over 1400 unique G1 My Little Ponies.

Nirvana My Little Pony

Nirvana is a term My Little Pony collectors use to describe most ponies that were sold outside of the United States and United Kingdom. Most are variation of ponies that were sold in the U.S. and U.K. Many have unique colorings and poses. They were sold all over the world. Often, new ponies are discovered. Recently, Venezuelan My Little Ponies were found. Rare varaints, and error ponies are also considered Nirvana.

Some countries that Nirvana My Little Ponies come from are:

Argentina

Argie Green My Little Pony

Argentina My Little Ponies, or Argies as they are know to collectors are some of the most unique ponies. Most are very brightly colored. They also had different poses than most of their U.S. counterparts. They have Argentina stamped on their hooves.
Australia

The Mail Offer Birthflower ponies were recreated and sold in bright colors with different flowers. These ponies were sold in stores in Australia and Scandanavia.
Brazil

Brazilian My Little Ponies are characterized by shiny bodies and brittle hair. Many are variants of U.S. ponies in different poses. There is also a unique set of Non-So-Soft Brazilian ponies. They have Brazil stamped on their hooves.

Colombian My Little Ponies are also a somewhat recent discovery. They have very soft, almost transparent ponies. They mostly consist of variants of ponies sold in the United States. Many are very brightly colored. There are many different variations of the same pony.

My Little Pony G3

Generation 3 My Little Ponies more closely resembled G1 MLP. Their bodies were less exagerrated than the G2 MLP. Most were about 3.5 inches tall. They came in a wide variety of colors and characters.
