Revision as of 11:08, 13 October 2014
G4 Blind Bag Ponies are pony toys that take the form of fully molded figurines that approximately half the size of a Playful Pony figure. Blind Bag Ponies tend to more closely resemble the characters from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic due to their molded hair. The term Blind Bag Pony refers to the packaging that the figurine comes in: opaque "surprise" packaging that prevents the user from determining what pony is inside. Blind Bag ponies comes with special dedicated Collector Card, which represents this particular pony with colorful picture and brief description, almost always - about her/him favorite activity.
Some blind Bag sized figurines have been released as part of a Miniature Sets, including anywhere from three to six ponies. Most revolve around a specific theme. Figurines released as part of these sets are more likely to have unique, individual molds, rather than being recolors and thus, are more likely to be accurate to the show. Some of the molds used for these figurines have been used in later Blind Bag Waves for re-releases or as recolors for other ponies. Miniature sets does not include collector cards.
And some of them was released as Miniature Collections, which usually consists of clearly visible through plastic fold 4-12 ponies, many of them not found in other sources, such as blind bags and miniature sets. Such collections was often a targed exclusive toys, for example for Wallmart or Toys 'R Us stores, and some of them are hard to find nowdays. Only Toys 'R Us "Pony Collection Set" includes collector cards so far.
Also a few blind bag ponies (usually, but not always Mane6) can be parts of other toys, such as Playhouse Puzzle or My Little Pony Chutes and Ladders Game.

About Blind Bags
Each bag always have an unique imprinted code somewhere on the bag. As collectors have discovered, this code can be deciphered to reveal the identity of the pony within the bag. Inside there are: a pony mini figurine, collector's card, small parts warning sheet and sometimes a colorful pamphlet.
Previous Gens
G4 are not the first My Little Pony blind bags. See Blind Bag Ponies. The scale of G4 blind bag ponies is similar to Ponyville figurines of G3 and G3.5 (so they may be referred to also G4 Ponyville or G4 PV).
Blind Bags vs Sets
Pony figurines are either released individually in blind bags or boxed sets (with the occasional boxed single).
Blind Bags include one figurine and a matching collector card, featuring the name and artwork of the pony, and a simple description about the pony's personality. The monolingual US collector cards tend to feature a longer description than multilingual European cards.
Distribution
The US distribution of blind bags mostly missed the first two waves. In their place were briefly packaged ponies on cards.
The initial delay spurred collectors to source their ponies from Taobao.
Blind Bag Identification
- Two Digit Codes
- Early European blind bags have two numerals lightly stamped on the outside of the bag on the top the back seam. These numbers correspond with the pony's number listed below.
- Five Digit Codes
- Except for the newest Neon set, all American blind bags, and later European blind bags have a five digit code stamped into the flap on the back of the package. The 1st, 3rd, and 5th number is to confuse you. The second and forth numbers tell you which pony is inside. See the charts below.
- Two Letter Codes
- The Neon set has a two letter code stamped into the bottom flap of the bag. The first letter is A and the second letter tells you which pony is inside. See below for a chart matching ponies to letters.

Blind Bag Waves
Bland Bags released in "waves", usually 2-3 within a calendar year. Each wave consists of 24 unique (for this particular wave) ponies, sharing a common style (e.g. pastel colored ponies in wave 5, bright transparent in wave 8, etc.), but often includes a few "special" ponies, such as glittery versions of Pinkie, Twi and Dashie in wave 1; glow in the dark versions of Rarity, Twilight and Pinkie in wave 3, etc. In some countries (United Kingdom for sure) later waves was splitted in two sub-waves (consists of 12 ponies each), distinguishable by slightly different bags and boxes designs.
Although ponies are not repeated inside each wave, some of them can duplicate figurines from earlier waves, sets or other toys. Duplicate rate is around 30% if we count all known ponies from all known releases till October 2014 (and considering different molds, styles and paintings for one pony as different figurines), and is about 11% if we focus only on Blind Bags waves from 1 to 11. Mane6 receives the most of re-releases, as you can guess of course.
Each wave offers it's own, unique design for collector cards (with the exeption of waves one, two and TRU Pony Collection Set, which shares the same design). So, for example, common Twilight Sparkle figurines from wave 3 and wave 5 will come identical, but have differing cards.
Early Blind Bag waves consisted solely of female ponies and were recolors of the Mane Six. At this point, Unicorns were based off of Twilight Sparkle or Rarity, while Earth Ponies were based off of Pinkie Pie or Applejack. All Pegasus Ponies were recolors of Rainbow Dash, including Fluttershy, one of the Mane Six. Later waves added more variety in molds, including male Earth, Unicorn, and Pegasus Ponies, and Alicorn Ponies. Also, while some early waves featured the Mane Six and recycled G3 ponies, later waves tend to include more supporting and minor characters from the TV show.

All 24 ponies were released in blind bags in Europe from the start.
US Wave I
At first in the US/North America only the mane characters were released. Fluttershy at first only appeared in the US with the puzzle house (which is still quite rare), which drove her value up extremely high initially.
They have been packaged:
- as individually packed singles
- as a four pack
- as singles in a cardboard house with a puzzle
The individual on card ponies have been sold in the US, Canada, and the UK so far.
- Wave 1

US Wave III
The first set of blind bags appeared by the box (finally) on hasbrotoyshop.com February 2012, ie officially available in the US.
It seems that some/all of the first full run of blind bags released in North America do not have their collector card number punched into the packaging. Secretly however they do. Each of the two-digit numbers have been interspersed with the numbers: 2, 4, and 5. (Single digit numbers written with a zero ie 2 is written as 02). [2]

The Pony Rainbow Collection versions of Pinkie Pie, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity are almost exact matches to the Wave 4 versions. Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash are darker than their Wave 1 versions. Twilight Sparkle is a brighter purple than Wave 1 as well. Fluttershy is darker than Wave 4 and slightly lighter but still close in color to her Wave 2 counterpart. Applejack is darker than in both Wave 4 and Wave 2. Rarity is more opaque than her Wave 2 version. With the exception of Emerald Ray, the Rainbow Collection does not have the black numbers stamped on the bottoms of their hooves differentiating them from the other waves.

Blind Bag Wave VIII
- Neon Bright Blind Bag Ponies
- Black/Dark Purple Bag
The bags for this wave were changed so that there was no longer a center flap for the codes to be imprinted on. Instead, letters were imprinted along the bottom edge of the bags. The numbers for the ponies were changed to the corresponding letter of the alphabet skipping the letters "J" and "Q" and adding an additional A at the beginning. That made #1 Applejack's code "AA," #2 Big McIntosh's code "AB" and so on through "AZ" for #24 Twilight Sparkle.
