Description
In 2019, Hasbro and Netflix collaborated to create a unique crossover between My Little Pony and Stranger Things, resulting in the special edition “Upside Down” Applejack pony. This limited-edition collectible reimagines the classic Applejack character with a distinctive design inspired by the Stranger Things universe.
The “Upside Down” Applejack features a gloomy gray and blue color scheme, deviating from her traditional bright appearance to reflect the eerie aesthetic of the Upside Down dimension from the show. Notably, her cutie marks are inverted, adding to the thematic crossover elements. Packaged uniquely, the figure is positioned upside down within the box, further emphasizing the connection to the Stranger Things series.
This collectible was released as part of the promotional activities surrounding the third season of Stranger Things, which premiered in July 2019. It was available exclusively at Target stores in the United States, priced at $9.99. The packaging includes a quote from the character Dustin Henderson, highlighting the show’s reference to My Little Pony:
“All the pink in the world can’t disguise the irrefutable fact that CASTLES and CENTAURS and DRAGONS and MAGIC are all standard NERD TROPES – ergo, My Little Pony is NERDY – ergo, YOU, ERICA, are a NERD.”
—Dustin Henderson
