                        In early 
                        2004, Strawberry 
                        Swirl and Daisyjo returned from a previous issue. They 
                        now came without charms and had different backcard 
                        pictures, though they still had the same backcard stories. 
                        The ponies themselves had no distinct differences 
                        between editions. Bumblesweet and 
                        Serendipity were advertised as "New Friends." 
                        The ponies 
                          in this edition would 
                        sometimes come with 30 bonus stickers.  |

                        This edition 
                        remains harder to find, in particular Cupcake and Sweetsong, because they are unique characters, 
                        unlike the reissues of Bumblesweet 
                        and Serendipity (which show no distinct differences 
                        between editions). Cupcake and Sweetsong were advertised 
                        as "New Friends." These ponies 
                        made up the last official  "Glitter Celebration" 
                        assortment, which would be replaced by the
                        Perfectly Pony group 
                        in August of 2004.   |
