Minty is a Generation 3 My Little Pony who shares her name with both G1 Minty and G4 Minty. She is a shimmery mint green pony with candy pink- and barely pink-striped hair with iridescent tinsel, violet/magenta eyes, and a green and pink peppermint candies Cutie Mark. She is one of the first eight G3 ponies released in 2003 and has a total of 11 different standard releases in seven different poses, along with Hoof Heart and Cutie Mark variations as well as several Mexican and Brazilian Hasbro-licensed releases.
Minty is featured in many G3 animated specials, where she is known for her clumsiness, cleverness, and her loves of socks and all things green.

Minty, voiced by Tabitha St. Germain, is featured in many of the G3 My Little Pony direct-to-video specials, including A Charming Birthday, A Very Minty Christmas, The Princess Promenade, A Very Pony Place, The World's Biggest Tea Party, and Meet the Ponies.
In A Charming Birthday, she is portrayed as a clumsy pony, whom Razzaroo describes as seeing “the world through green-colored glasses.” Minty visits Kimono and very cleverly presents an imaginary problem to her in order to figure out how the other ponies can surprise her on her birthday.
Minty also appears in the PC Play Pack as one of several characters the players can help to prepare for the Friendship Ball.
Minty retains her clumsiness and cleverness in A Very Minty Christmas, as well as revealing her love for socks. When she makes a mistake that she worries will ruin Christmas for all of Ponyville, Pinkie Pie convinces her to go to the North Pole to talk to Santa Claus and make everything right.

MINTY loves wintertime fun - she makes snow ponies with her friends, then warms up with a cup of hot chocolate!
Variants
In the first year of G3, all ponies were initially released with their hoof-heart on their display-side (the side on which their symbol appeared). Midway through the first year this was changed so that the hoof-heart was always on the magnet leg. Because of this, Minty can be found with the heart on either her left or right leg.
Mexican Minty
- one version of Mexican Minty is in the Walking Pose. She came packaged in a transparent pink house case with a brush, 2 hair clips, and a wand. the colors of the accessories vary.
- Another is also in the walking pose, but was packaged on a normal card, and came with a flower hair clip, a ribbon hair clip, a comb, and a wand accessory (colors of accesories vary)
- Another walking pose variant, this time with a bed, mirror, hair clips, and comb.
- another variant is in the Donkey Pose and came with a refrigerator, an oven, a counter, a flower hair clip, a ribbon hair clip, a comb and a magic wand accessory (color of accessories vary)
Unlike the US minty, Mexican Minty is smaller and made of hard plastic.
