More new ponies. As if you hadn’t had enough. Thanks Sunsparkle for finding these pictures of Sweet Summer and Winter Snow.

It never fails. Go on vacation and stuff happens while you’re away. It would appear that the in-store promotional 2-packs are showing up at KBToys and Walmart will have an exclusive Butterscotch pony (thanks, Firexie, for taking pics). Hasbro announced that the pony-points program will begin on August 1st, but more details will be on the site July 15th.

Promotional packs confirmed. A free pony with the purchase of one!

KBToys online has ponies in stock and ready to ship, which sure beats inflated eBay prices. A big thanks to Ms Twilight for this update. Also, Hasbro has updated their FAQ section: ponies are now being shipped to stores and ToysRUs was indeed the first to receive them. Ponies should show up soon in Walmart, Meijer, Target, and Kmart (US), but it may take a while to release in all areas, so be on the lookout for them July-August. Hasbro also posted a new message for pony points, stating no promotions were active, but that they had things planned for the future. Pretty much sounds like old news, right? Good. Then we’re doing our job.

New promotional packs were seen at Toy Works (KBToys) in New York (thanks Summer Skye for the update). Included were two-packs of ponies, some of which are new to the line: Autumn Skye and Star Swirl.

Visit the G3 Network: collectors dedicated to helping other collectors collect new ponies at low prices. (Dang that Toys R Us. Just sent us a $10.00 off coupon. Could have used that last week, lol. Guess we’ll have to go get more ponies now...) PonyRebublic Message Board for 2003 Ponies Only

New Ponies make long-awaited appearance in Australia at Kmart store. Thanks Satin Slipper for the update. Ponytopia is working on a new 2003 section for its site...Silverfall is addicted already. Hasbro also added new puzzles to their product section. Thanks Jennifer2004 for the update. Download your own pony images to color and create by Sunsparkle!

Hasbro has updated www.mylittlepony.com with a new product section that includes very nice images of all the little pony products coming out this year.

Ponytopia has completed putting all the heart and star stickers on its new Celebration Castle and opened all its other little pony packages. Silverfall agrees that all the new ponies are adorable, albeit different than the originals, and are worth the wait. Many friends and family came to see the new additions to the herd and today Silverfall will give her young cousin a Cotton Candy Cafe for her birthday to start her down that road to “forever pony love.” Winged Fantasy’s 2003 Gallery
