And yet another! This is Applejack, a G1/year 2 pony who sported some adorable freckles. The year 2 earth ponies sported nifty facial markings like freckles and forehead markings shaped liked diamonds. No other Earth ponies afterwards had such extra details. Applejack was re-released with her plastic mold-counterpart Bowtie, but with curly hair (they kept the freckles though!!)
Applejack was also featured in the first MLP special, and aside from a raspy voice and the tiniest hint of a pessimistic streak, she didn't have that discerning of a personality like Firefly and Twilight. Lots of people seemed to have pegged Applejack as the tomboy pony (some even made her a boy outright) and they were not alone. My Applejack was not only a tomboy, but a type of down-home country gal to boot. I guess those apples made me think she was a farmer of some kind. I also imagined her confident, friendly and robustly energetic, which I tried to portray in the pose and expression.
**Edit**
It just occured to me that Applejack is colored like a bright Palomino-- the type of horse that Trigger (Roy Roger's horse) was. Maybe that contributed to the country influence.

You know, before they came out with the "boy" My Little Pony, my sibling and I had assigned genders to them and accidently made a whole community of happy lesbians! ;D
Of course, we ended up giving genders to my HotWheels too, so...

I was older when the Big Brother ponies came out, and I got such a huge kick out of them! An Indian, a Pirate, a Construction worker--- they were practically the Village Ponies!!
