1988: Princess Ponies

PRINCESS DAWN

Pink earth pony with lavender mane and tail (purple tinsel in hair) shield jewelled medallion symbol, spritz of tinsel forelock.

Princess Dawn is much more along the lines of the average Joe My Little Pony - pink and purple! For this reason she's often seen on the second hand market online, though not always in great condition.

Like with the Sundae Best Ponies, old poses were modified for this set to accomodate the symbol style. However, unlike the Sundae Best Ponies, this worked a whole lot better for the most of the Princesses! Dawn's accessories are fairly hard to find on the second hand market, and comprised a crown clip, a wand, a ribbon and a glittering Princess comb.

Princess Dawn was never sold in the UK, although she saw limited release in parts of Europe.
