Sea Sparkle Baby Sea Ponies


Adult Sea Ponies were a thing of the past, but Baby Sea Ponies were still a thriving commodity in 1987. The third set of Baby Sea Ponies was released in this year. Oddly, they were called Sea Sparkle Baby Sea Ponies, although there was absolutely nothing sparkly about them at all. They are probably the hardest to find set of Baby Sea Ponies second-hand, and are also some of the most distinctive - each baby had a stripe of colour in her hair and a painted necklace around her throat.

A new float style, the lobster, was also introduced with this set; it was sold with three out of the six babies. The set used two of the existing three baby sea pony poses - the 'looking up' and 'head turned' styles.

The Sea Sparkle Baby Sea Ponies were not sold in the UK. They may have been sold in Europe on import, but this is unclear - of all the Baby Sea Ponies they are the ones with the least footprint outside of North America, which may help to explain why they are generally harder to find.
