Description

In 1986, Hasbro expanded the My Little Pony universe by introducing the Pony Friends line, featuring non-pony animal companions with the same brushable manes and tails. Among these unique additions was Zig Zag the Zebra, who stood out with her vibrant pink body adorned with bold turquoise stripes, capturing the playful essence of a zebra in a whimsical design. Her mane and tail were a soft pink, complementing her overall look and making her a delightful companion in the My Little Pony world.

Zig Zag’s distinctive appearance made her a favorite among collectors, as she brought a fresh and exotic flair to the lineup. Her playful design and vibrant colors embodied the imaginative spirit of the Pony Friends series, making her a cherished addition to any collection.

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.

My Little Pony, launched by Hasbro in 1983, was a beloved toy line featuring colorful ponies with brushable manes and unique symbols, or “cutie marks,” on their flanks. Each pony had its own name and personality, from unicorns to earth ponies and pegasus ponies, inviting kids to immerse themselves in a magical world of friendship and adventure. The toy line was accompanied by animated specials, a TV series, and movies, making My Little Pony a cherished part of 80s and 90s childhoods and a timeless classic for collectors and fans.
