Megan and Sundance - here we go again.

If kids were not already sick to death of Megan and her clumsy horse pal Sundance, 1986 saw the set re-released in North America (and later distributed via import in some European countries like the Netherlands. While 1986 was the year regular Megan and Sundance began to be rolled out in the UK and other areas, Hasbro were already ramping up the gimmicks to fit their theme of the year - which was undoubtedly fuzzy.

Sundance (made in Hong Kong) is basically the same as her regular release, only flocked. Her hair is intentionally curly. Megan the doll is also basically the same, but has a new dress for the occasion. Hasbro US seemed obsessed with putting Megan in impractical dresses, which she rarely wore in the animation - not suitable attire for saving the world.

Megan and So Soft Sundance were also sold via mail order in North America over successive years, remaining available until around 1988-9. This makes Sundance probably the last So Soft Pony to be available, as the So Soft phenomenon departed the line at the end of 1987. This frequency of promotion as a mail order release may indicate overproduction or underpopularity. It's hard to know which.
