Take Cheerilee as an example...
This is a known "old" Ponyville pose:
And this in the "new" pose, but if you look closely, the legs and the tail are 100% the same, they only turned the head the other way:
I guess they did that to make the new removeable hair fit better... BUT!!!
Is this a NEW pose, or an old, modified pose? I need to figure this out to decide how I should update my website, Rereleases Encyclopedia.
The thing is that I sort ponies by pose. In 2006, when Hasbro introduced moveable heads, I didn't consider that a "new" pose, if both body and head were the same.
Take the example of this Bowtie, I consider this one pose, allthough the moulds do have minor differences... Since the head turns, you can actually make these poses look different one from another. But, what's important, if you turn the head the appropriate way, those two poses will have a definite match!
And this Minty I consider to have two different poses, eventhough the LEGS are 100% the same and the poses are quite similiar! That's because the head is clearly different, it's sculpted in a different way so it's not quite the same at all anymore... However you pose her head, it will never be close to the earlier release.
***
Summing this all up, what do I do with this Ponyville Cheerilee?
I do not know if the head of the "new" pose is the same as the old head, the picture is too small to see that... if the head is not the same, I will definitely make it a new pose. But suppose, just SUPPOSE that the head is 100% the same, but turned the other way...
Is this a "new" pose, then, or not? What makes me doubt so much is that since those heads are glued, you can never turn it to make the pose match the older version...
