The Spanish “Piggy” Ponies have distinctive, rounder, and slightly stockier body molds, which differ significantly from the standard My Little Pony figures. Their design gives them a charming, almost whimsical appearance, making them instantly recognizable among enthusiasts.
Produced by the Spanish company Brekar, in collaboration with Milton Bradley 🔗 for some variations, these ponies feature vibrant color schemes, unique cutie marks, and often pastel-toned manes and tails. Some Spanish Piggies share similarities with well-known G1 characters, while others boast entirely new designs that are exclusive to this lineup, adding to their allure and rarity.
These ponies are made from softer, more pliable vinyl than their Collector Pose counterparts, and their hair is finer and longer, often resembling the flowing manes of Andalusian horses. Piggy Ponies also came with specially designed outfits, enhancing their unique charm and individuality.
The Original Piggy Ponies and Their Rarity
Over the years, the Spanish Piggies have become treasured items for collectors, not only because of their unusual molds and limited production but also because of their cultural significance as part of My Little Pony’s global history.
Initially, collectors believed Piggy Ponies were imitation “fakies,” but their legitimacy was confirmed when one was found mint on a card. However, their distinctive look, combined with their scarcity, has made them a favorite among fans of international My Little Pony variations.
The Complete List of MLP Piggies
Both Brekar and Milton Bradley produced their own versions of Piggy Ponies, with some resembling familiar characters like Blossom and Butterscotch. However, the line also introduced unique creations such as Rayito and Algodoncete, adding an exclusive flair to the Spanish lineup.

My Little Pony G1 Essentials
If you want to learn more about ponies and how to restore them, here are two resources that can help. The first is the unofficial MLP G1 guide (which has photos, prices, etc). The second is my own book, Restoring My Little Pony!
Restoring My Little Pony is the result of almost three years of restoring and customizing My Little Pony toys for my channel RetroGeek Crafts. The book contains 86 pages full of detailed step-by-step guides, project features, material and technique comparisons, and much more. The book is mostly focused on My Little Pony Generation 1 (MLP G1). However, these techniques can be applied to all other generations, including MLP G2, G3, G4, and even G5.
This unofficial MLP guide to the first generation of My Little Pony (known as G1) was created by Summer Hayes. The book provides everything a collector needs to identify G1 ponies and their accessories, and understand their value. The guide contains large, full color photos of every pony, playset and accessory released in the US (and in some cases in other countries) in the 1980s and 1990s.
