You just have to love these little ponies!!Friday, March 18, 2005
My 6 year old daughter just loves these little ponies, she doesnt really play with them as much as collect them and they all are displayed on her window sill. She actually enjoys collecting and playing with all of the MLP ponies and accessories. Her grandfather actually drilled wholes through 3 of these ponies and strung them with beads and made her a beautiful necklace which she just loves to wear. I'm glad the My little pony collection is back!!

Cute and fun and take up less space then the big ponies!Monday, February 28, 2005
My three girls prefer these little ponies to the regular sized My Little Ponies. I also prefer them because my girls are not into 'grooming' them, only playing with them, so the standard sized ponies are always very matted looking. These little ones are jointed in the neck, cute, and colorful. They are made very well. The tins do bend fairly easy but they bend back just as easy and it hasn't been a big problem for us as the ponies are usually loose in the storage bin and not always put back in the tins nor are the tins always used when the ponies are. My girls love putting these ponies on the My Little Pony dance studio which spins them around. Very fun. My girls have no interest in the big ponies since these came along, including my 2 1/2 year old. We bought the first series of six some time before Christmas and now we have purchased the new series of six more. I hope they keep coming. If your girl likes to brush the hair and do the dress-up hair bow thing, then this probably won't be best for her. But if she just likes to play with ponies or enjoys setting up cute collections, this might be perfect for her as well.

A Collector's ReviewWednesday, February 23, 2005
I'm a 26-year-old MLP collector, so please take that into consideration when you read this review. I am obviously looking for different things in my toys than the average child would be, so if you are considering buying this for a child, this review may not be that helpful to you :)
The Tiny Tin ponies are a collector's dream. Such tiny little replicas of the ponies we already know and love - and such adorable little tins to keep them in. Not to mention that the tins come in handy for storing candy, medicine, safety pins, paper clips, pony points - you name it. I've even bought extras to be able to use. They make a great (and adorable) mini-first-aid-kit for your car or purse. I love how each tin has a different design even on the inside, too. It's such a nice detail :)
That said, I would advise any collectors who are particular about the condition of their ponies to try to find these in their local toy store instead of buying the multi-pack here. I ended up having to replace my Daisy Jo because of a dark purple smudge right in the middle of her face. On the other hand, most of the ponies WERE in fine condition and you really can't beat the convenience of getting them all at once - and the little cardboard box they come in that perfectly nestles all 6 tins is strangely cute - and perfect for storing them. Whether you take the chance on getting all 6 at once or try to hunt them out yourself is really a judgement call that only you can make.

Very small poniesFriday, February 18, 2005
I knew these were smaller than the regular ponies, but I had no idea they were this small! They are only about 2 inches tall. My daughter got these for Christmas & really hasn't played with them at all. And the tins they come in are really about worthless. I'm thinking of throwing them away. We have the Celebration Castle & I keep a basket near it to store ponies & furniture in. The regular ponies have a magnetic foot so the tins are always stuck to the ponies. The tins also get bent really easy & that makes them hard to put back together. My advice, stick with the regular ponies.

Very cuteSunday, January 09, 2005
My daughers (7 and 4) both love little plastic animals...so when I saw these I know my littlest (who loves My Little Ponies) would love them, and she does. The tins are cute and the ponys all come in cute poses with heads that move. She has played with these more than all her bigger ponies since she got them for Christmas.
