Baby Glory in the United Kingdom

Although Baby Glory was not sold in the UK, she did appear regularly in the early My Little Pony comics.

Baby Glory in the United States

Baby Glory was issued in a yellow box in North America, with an array of accessories befitting a 'play and care' set, although this set name was not used officially in the North American line. She was one of two baby pegasus introduced this year. A pearly version of Baby Glory was also produced, in blue.

Baby Glory in Other Places


The American boxed (or translated versions of it) Baby Surprise were sold in other places around Europe. There was also a carded release featuring only a bottle as an accessory, which was sold in other parts of Europe, such as Scandinavia and Finland, as well as in Germany. This release was definitely around in 1987, according to a German insert, and sometimes featured Baby Glory with a painted symbol, instead of a glittery one. She had no Pat. Pend on her hooves, which also indicates a later release.

.Some countries which had the carded version also had the boxed version via import in earlier years.


Baby Glory's Character

Baby Glory was the second baby pony to emerge from the magic mirror in the first pony comic, after Glory made a wish for someone to take care of.  Ironically, her American back story depicted her looking into a lake, like a mirror, and being encouraged to make a wish. The wish she makes is for a special friend to catch stars and chase rainbows. In the first comic story, Baby Glory indicates that she had also made a wish to find a special friend. Whether that first story was based on this backcard concept or not is unclear, but it seems like an uncanny coincidence.
