So, we are going to start doing a thread for the G3 Pony of the Day! Each day will be a new thread and a new pony and your job is to share everything you know about that pony... YOUR pictures, release types, merchandise, variant info, etc... Once we get all the info on that pony, we will move the thread to the G3 Reference Library.

8/25/09 Today's Pony: Minty
thanks to Ponyfan for the great suggestion!

Minty has a lot of variations. She can have a pink-and-white striped mane and tail, white in just her tail, or an all-pink mane and tail. It can be wavy or straight hair. She can have pink or red candy symbols. Her hoof heart can be misplaced (left or right hoof) and can be either pink or red. The pink symbol version was more frequently sold as a single and the red symbol version was more frequently seen in promotional sets, but it is noted that all versions show up in all types of packages.

Minty is one of the original ponies introduced in 2003. She is also used to promote the My Little Pony brand.

Minty I was first available in the US in a promotional 2-pack, which was available at most stores. With your purchase, you would receive Minty and a bonus pony Butterscotch, Autumn Skye, or Star Swirl. Minty would then be released as a single and for a short time came with the free “A Charming Birthday†video and charm bracelet. She was also available in the 2003 Salon value pack.


Accessories
Regular: green bow brush, green pony charm, and pearly ribbon.

Backcard Story


.


Minty’s colorful sock collection sure comes in handy on frosty-cold days! Of course, she has them in so many colors it sometimes takes her all morning to find four that match! Today my friend Sno-Glo is going to show me how to make a sock puppet!

Minty is one of the original eight ponies, apparently she loves to collect socks which still baffles me as I don't know where she gets them from. She must have a few of mine though. Minty is Melody's favourite original because she's green! Minty was re-released as a Winter Series III Target exclusive pony with her own mittens and scarf, see picture below, and is the star of her own Christmas DVD! She's been released in three different poses so far!

Nope! I think it's 7 poses!
 
The original 8 are my favorite ponies. I think Twinkle Twirl, Amberlocks and only a few others (which are still from very early on) are the only ones outside of the 8 that are my favorites. Anything from Butterfly Island and on I don't really like. I don't think I'm doing these polls much favor XD

Minty looks so pretty with her lighter pink hair though.
 
Ok, so this one is hard. I hate most G3 Minty. But there is one that could be my favorite G3 ever!!! The winter one?? Anyway. there is my vote.
 
eeeeeeeeeee minty! best day ever! sadly i a lacking the information other than she is the best and should be part of core 7.

idk she was one of the original 8 though. how neat!

:reaper: Kat :reaper:
 
welll this one is hard...
i chose "i like her"
BUT the TAF winter one is one of my FAVES!!
 
Minty rocks

Yay! Minty is one of my most faves!!
There's more of her isn't there? Wasn't there a couple from Brazil or somewhere,in a sitting pose and stuff?

There was a McDonald's toy miniature of Minty that was released in 2008 with the happy meals.
