To honor My Little Pony’s 35th anniversary, Hasbro decided to bring back the beloved Generation 1 (G1) ponies. These reissues meticulously replicated the original ponies, including their vibrant colors, signature cutie marks, and accessories, while offering updated packaging that evoked the charm of the 1980s.
The initial releases, launched in 2018, were specifically branded to celebrate the anniversary. However, as the line continued beyond the anniversary year, the packaging transitioned to a simpler “Classic” label, reflecting the timeless appeal of these iconic characters. This initiative not only rekindled fond memories for long-time fans but also introduced the magic of the original My Little Pony designs to a new generation, ensuring the enduring legacy of the franchise.
So, let’s take a look at all the MLP 35th Anniversary ponies and where you can get them today!

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.
