The Spanish piggy ponies were the original G1 ponies made in Spain. They have the "piggy" pose, which a pose that simulates that of a Spanish dressage horse with its left front leg raised.

Milton Bradly Perla
Brekar Snuzzle
Brekar Blossom

Piggy ponies were made by two different companies in Spain, Milton Bradly (MB) and Brekar. The packaging art is noticeably much sadder on the toys marked Brekar. None of the ponies had any hoof markings.

For a long time, it was thought these ponies were "fakies." It was not until one was presented mint on card that the collection community realized this was an actual Hasbro version.

Brekar and Milton Bradley each had their own versions of the G1 ponies. Some related to the usual ponies such as Blossom and Butterscotch, but others were completely new creations, such as Rayito and Algodoncete.

In addition, Brekar and MB each manufactured several runs of the ponies, and some of those runs had variant symbols. As a result, there are quite a few variants per type of piggy pony.
