1985: Baby Sea Ponies
SEA STAR
yellow baby sea pony with purple mane, pink and purple duck float
Sea Star, according to her fact file entry, was pitched much in the same vein as Sparkler - a magpie pony who collected pretty shells. However, she used them to build shell castles and throw parties. A little odd, I grant you. I don't remember this from the comics, but maybe it was there :S What I *do* remember, however, is a story when two Twice as Fancy Ponies gave her a perm for her birthday!
Sea Star had a second edition the following year as one of the Pretty N Pearly Baby Sea Ponies. HOWEVER she was only sold in this form in the United Kingdom set. She was not part of the North American release of Pretty N Pearly Baby Sea Ponies. Her float remained the same, though the baby pony now had a pearly sheen to her body.
The accessories listed to the right are those for the original release. I do not know the accessories for the pearly baby or if they differed.
