Media Appearances
Although Lemon Drop never appeared in the cartoons, she was a frequent character in the G1 comic books. Unlike most earth ponies in the comics Lemon Drop does not have any magical abilities, but she is an athletic show-jumper has the silver cups and winning ribbons to prove it. Though her pride can sometimes lead her to accept foolish challenges--agreeing to jump over obstacles made of barbed wire to protect "the honour of Ponyland", for example--she really is the best jumper in all of Ponyland.
Although she can be a bit abrasive at times, particularly towards anyone who has been ruining her jumps, Lemon Drop is also one of the bravest ponies and is always ready to help a friend. Despite being one of the few wholly non-magical ponies, she goes on a quest by herself to confront the Stone-Hearted Sorceror after he turns Tickle into stone.
She lives in the Show Stable with her puppy friend, Brandy.
She is also in the books The Magic Nut Tree, The Trolls and the Castle of Darkness, The Cross Weather Witch, and A Shock at the Show Stable. In the book The Stolen Shadow her jumping ability helps save the day.
