Shop Spotlight: G3 My Little Ponies

In previous Shop Spotlight's we've featured the G1 my little Ponies and the G2 My little Ponies so it's time to G3's got some love.

As a long time pony fan I was at first a little miffed about the G3 ponies, they took a lot of names from the G1s and recycled them while totally changing to look of the ponies themselves. I didn't like their changed their proportions and a various other tiny perceived  infractions against the classic ponies I've loves since childhood. However before long I started seeing ones that were too cute to ignore and I've gotten more and more smitten with them and have quite a collection that's growing all the time, so naturally they're something we'd carry in the shop.

G3 Ponies are generally split into two parts. The original G3's which were based on the original G1 molds and were made for 6 years from 2003-2009. The "New Look" or G3.5 ponies which started being produced in early 2009 and went until the introduction of Friendship is Magic. The G3.5 looked radically different with large heads, large eyes and small bodies.  We primarily carry the older style G3 ponies and currently have a fairly large selection of them.





Misty Blue. Misty Blue really reminds me of an older Pony. Her pretty blue and white color scheme and simple cutie mark are classic and elegant.I think she's honestly look at home not only in collection of ponies but even in a china cabinet with other dainty little things. This Particular Misty Blue is in great shape and is $4.







 
 Hidden Treasure. The pegasus ponies in G3 have cute little stylized wings instead of feather style wings. When I first saw one I was delighted because they look so similar to CLAMP wings (the ones widely used in Card Captor Sakura and subsequently in their logos). As you'd expect with a pegasus pony, they're designs are a little more fanciful and well, magical looking than the earth ponies. Hidden treasure has a sparkly blaze down her nose, glittery hair and 3D jewled cutie mark. She's in great shape and could be making your collection more magical for $7.






Sweetie Belle Variant. Sweetie Belle was one the most popular G3 Ponies and by far the most popular unicorn. This is the name up the leg variant of sweetie belle sometimes called a 25th anniversary variant because it was released in the same year as the anniversary and had an anniversary sticker on the original packaging. She's looks fabulous on display, though her hooves have some wear. $5 is a great deal on this hard to find pony.










Sweetberry Plush. Sometimes you just want to hug your ponies and for that we have this cute yarn haired Sweetberry. She's got a super soft coat and really nice details on her embroidered cutie mark and eyes. She's in fabulous shape and ready to by cuddled by you for just $6.
