The Show Stable
Another extremely common playset! Lemon Drop, in the classic 'collector pose' that the early My Little Pony products were full of, was the showjumper of Ponyland, and what better than to give her her own Stable to host her own gymkhana (presumably with help from Butterscotch and her gymkhana accessories!). In UK stories, Lemon Drop was known for her nimbleness around the course, (odd choice of pose, therefore!) and was often accompanied by the loyal Brandy the Dog (above).
The Stable would be reissued in European countries with a new colour scheme in the early 1990s, but the original stable is the one most commonly seen. It was sold with a variety of jumps, rosettes, trophies and a big double bed...
The original Show Stable's Lemon Drop was Made in Hong Kong.
