1989

1989 saw the introduction of more new styles, gimmicks and characters as My Little Pony continued to enjoy a massive popularity wave. This year My Little Ponies would learn to dance, have sun sensitive hair, would resemble carousel horses and be princesses, and there would even be the first bonafide My Little Pony family sets.

This was also the last year for some styles. The Windy Wing Ponies would be the final set of tiny butterfly-like creatures, and the Baby Ponies and Pretty Pals would mark Hasbro's last venture into animal companions for the little ponies to play with.

And, into all of this came a new playset, the Mummy Charm special offer and the final edition (can you hear me cheering?) of Megan and Sundance.

Some themes from earlier years were also modified and repeated, introducing the first set of newborn singlets, and clydesdale baby boy ponies with turning heads!
