1988: Big Brother Ponies

WIGWAM

Orange shire pony with white mane and tail (blue streak in mane), blue and red teepee and moon symbols. Yellow feathered headdress and blue bandana.

Not quite sure how to take this one. Obviously meant as a connection with America's native culture, WigWam was the Native American pony - with a feathered headdress and, of course, his own 'wigwam' (shouldn't that be teepee?)

In one of the comic stories, he, the Baby Ponies and some of the attendants and pets had a camp out in the gardens of the Lullabye nursery, during which he told them the story of the Heatstone and each pony had magical, mystical dreams. To say he had magical powers may be a stretch - but there was always something about WigWam ;)
