these have been quite the mystery for me for awhile- a 3rd(?) set of G3 Tiny Tins is assumed to have existed yet I can't find a single photo of them, either loose or MOC. the picture below of a backcard featuring them is all i can find. G3 fandom wiki mentions them, as well as an old G3 news blog- specifically this post from Oct 2004, which reads:

October 19, 2004 - Get the latest on the International MLP Convention!
New poster available for order on www.mylittlepony.com. One side of the poster shows Star Catcher. The other shows 50+ pony friends! (Thanks, Athaliah.) If you remember the unique Cherry Blossom Tiny Tin pony... there are more! Meagan shares the picture from the backcard. Click here to view. New birthday jewel ponies confirmed at TRU (thanks, Diamond). Looks like there will indeed be one for each month.
Checklist, watchlist updated... Product code updates still pending... Um... let me know if I forgot anything (feeling much better, thanks!).

were they possibly discontinued/never released? if so, how'd that picture of the backcard turn up? who's Meagan? because i'd like a word, LOL
this set was supposed to feature Tiny Tin Cupcake, Cherry Blossom, Cotton Candy, Shenanigans, Toola-Roola and Sweetsong.
anybody have any information, or is everything i mentioned the last of it?

well... yet again, i guess i have my answer :rofl: this is from the strawberryreef page on tiny tins:

"3rd Edition (these were suggested but never released)
Cherry Blossom
Cotton Candy
Shenanigans
Cupcake
Toola-Roola
Sweetsong"

but that still begs the question... where'd the backcard come from? and what do they mean by "remember the unique cherry blossom tiny tin pony"... was there a pic released back in the day of one in the works? i don't think i'll ever know
 
I'd love a Tiny Tin Shenanigans!
