I. Identifying a Retro Pony vs. Original Pony
II. Identifying the Pony's Name
I. How Do I Know if my Pony is a Retro (Remake)?
Basic Fun has set out to reproduce several lines of original G1 (and G3!) ponies with a close attention to detail--so close, that it may be difficult to tell them apart. One of the easiest ways to figure out if your pony is an original G1 or a Retro release is to look at the information printed under its feet:
G1 ponies were made in a wide variety of styles and sizes. Just because your pony doesn't look like the Applejack pictured above, it's definitely worth checking out if your pony is, in fact, a G1 My Little Pony product.
