::2003-2004 My Little Ponies::
Plush Items aka "Plushes" or "Plushies"

Plush items were popular with collectors in the 80s and it has seemingly carried over to the new ranges of My Little Ponies. Plushes have the wonderful form of My Little Pony in a squeezable, loveable type toy. The original 1980's versions were called Hasbro Softies, but adopted the slang term Plushes. Click here to view the various 80's plush items. There are also super soft Pillow Buddies, which are larger than the actual plushes.

::Plushes::

The beautiful plush ponies are very close to their plastic counterparts in appearance and shape. Each having an delicately embroidered symbol and individually colored eyes and highlights. You'll notice that Sweetberry, Sparkleworks and Pinkie Pie has a special double heart hoof mark, this is the same way that early prototypes and sketches appeared. These plush items were offered first in Australia. There are both large and small plush ponies. Matching sets of small and large, sold separately.

::Pillow Buddies::

These pony pillows are shaped like actual My Little Ponies. Each is roughly the size of a standard bed pillow (just the body area). Pinkie Pie, Sparkleworks, and Sunny Daze are soft and cuddly and fairly large in size. They were sold at Wal-mart and carried 8 pony points.
