That's Mummy Bright Bouquet, the Loving Family Pony. In some countries, she was sold along with her husband and baby. In other countries (including here in the UK) the family were sold seperately, and she had two babies (a boy and a girl). I hope that helps !

Oh wow! A good deal? That's amazing! Those particular ponies went out of production back in the late 1980's, and the modern ponies cost more than that in the shops nowadays! The rest of Mummy Bright Bouquet's family (and most other ponies) would cost quite a lot more than what you paid in their MOC state, I'm afraid to say ... Of course, if there were any more Mummy Bright Bouquet's in the shop, there's probably another pony collector somewhere who would trade her for a different family member. The Show Stable is also a rarer later edition, and ten euros would be brilliant for any MIP pony building, let alone one of those!!! Were there any other ponies in the shop? Oh, how I wish we could find ponies like that over here in the UK!!! Your collection has started off in a very interesting way. Did you have any other ponies when you were younger? Maybe you'd like to tell us more about yourself in the introduction forum which can be found here? I can't wait to hear more about your ponies, and hope your collection will grow very soon .

Is Mummy Bright Bouquet on an unmarked card? I've never heard of a pony like that before!

Oh WOW!! You are so lucky to find those ponies!! Actually those exact ponies went out of production in the early 90s but still - that's like 15 years ago!! How I wish I was lucky enough to find new ponies of the old ones in a store!!! They cost a fortune when you buy them on eBay and the like

Oops ! Did I get my end-of-production dates wrong again, The Loner! Well, you've got to remember I wasn't around until the early 1990's myself...not that that's any excuse for not knowing the correct dates!

Hehehe. Well I was around but I sure can't remember them straight : 0-P
Woooowww, what a way to start a collection! X 0-) And for what awesome prices! (How'd you spot the stable was a later version, Lancer? I hadn't a clue myself O.o ) I'd sure be trading those MOCs off for lots and lots and lots of awesome ponies right now...lol. *agrees: she sure wants really cool pony finds like that here where she is* I just got Mommy Bright Bouquet myself yesterday in the mail, pretty nice but definitely not MOC ; 0-P I have to say, though, I got Daddy BB a little while before her in a lot on Ebay--pretty cheaply if you divide out the dollars per pony I think, heh--and now I'm about to buy their baby on the pony Trading Post! So somehow I've managed to get the whole family in very short order, and not for much money (under $15 total)--so it is very possible to find them : 0-) But if all MOC you were meaning, welllll.... >.>;; That'd be tougher or at least a whole lot more expensive. Mint on cards are verrrry valuable o.o;; Not a lot of people bought ponies twenty years ago and kept them in perfect condition, unopened...lol.

I've got the first edition Stable in a rather bashed up original box. If you take a look at the rainbow logo, the later one has different colours, and far blockier letters spelling out "My Little Pony"...does that make sense? Also, the Stable is pink as opposed to white, and the accessories are in different colours. Plus Lemon Drop is a different version with writing on all four feet (You can tell that by the boldness of her eyes).

Lancer, that's okay. You have a valid excuse! I grew up with those ponies. I think it must be really difficult for those who didn't grow up with the ponies in the 80s and early 90s to know when the various ponies were avaible, what it was like etc. You are correct about the Show Stable . That version was released in the early 90s. About the Mummy Bright Bouquet, she is the version made in Spain without it being marked on her hoof. I can see it on her eyes. I just wanted to mention it in case it ment anything to someone.
