Generation 3.5 is the term for ponies in production from late 2009 until the present. They are commonly known as G3.5 because they are the same characters as G3, but Hasbro gave the ponies a heavy style makeover so drastic that many collectors consider them a whole new generation.

The Core 7
In a controversial move, Hasbro reduced the number of ponies they produced to just seven characters:
- Pinkie Pie
- Rainbow Dash
- Scootaloo
- Cherrilee
- Toola-Roola
- Star Song
- Sweetie-Belle
Year One - 2009
Towards the end of 2009, Hasbro redesigned the My Little Pony line. The new ponies had large heads, small bodies, big feet, and enormous eyes. The new style (G3.5) are considerd to be kid ponies. Each pony was given their own age, and are sized accordingly with Sweetie Belle being the smallest.
This is the year the Newborn Cuties were first released. These are baby versions of the Core 7. They are not proportionate to their adult counterparts and have diapers instead of tails. Their symbols are printed on their diapers.
This year's McDonald's ponies were in the G3.5 mold. Only six of the Core 7 were made, with Toola Roola being left out.
