Beddy Bye Eye Baby Gusty

Baby Gusty was sold as part of the Beddy Bye Eye Baby set in North America in 1985-6. The set was also sold in Benelux countries in translated boxes. She came with an array of accessories, in order for her new guardian to take good care of her. She was one of only three baby ponies ever made in this mould, which was created to accommodate her open-shut eyes. This version was not sold in the UK.

Unlike the UK Play and Care Set box, the Beddy Bye Eye baby box made a direct connection between mother and baby pony. The set name was on the top flap, while the front of the box proudly announced that Gusty now had a baby. The box featured Baby Heart Throb and Baby Ribbon on the top flap and Baby Lofty and Baby Lickety Split on the bottom corners. All six characters featured on the back of the box.



Baby Gusty's character

Baby Gusty's backcard story mentions her playing in the autumn leaves. After tidying them all up into a pile high enough to reach the rainbow, she started playing in them and created a huge mess.
