G4 Pony Figurines are fully molded toys smaller than the 'regular' sized pony toys. With their molded hair they more closely resemble the character in the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. G4 pony figurines are similar to the Ponyville figurines of G3 and G3.5 (so on this wiki they may be referred to also G4 Ponyville or G4 PV).

In the US (up til Fall 2011) only five (out of 24) figurines have been released, either in multipacks or single packs (much rarer). Where as in Europe the full (first?) set has been released. However in Europe the figurines are packaged in 'blind bags.' Blind as in you can't see what pony you are getting until you open her up, but collecters soon found that each bag had a number stamped on it indicating which pony was in each bag negating the randomness of in-person purchasing (where as buying online can still be quite random).

Identifying Blind Bags Chart[1]

In the blind bags the ponies come with an info card indicating which number in the set of 24 she is. This is the same number that is lightly pressed on the outside of the bag on the top(/bottom?) of the back seam.

In the US only the main characters were released (minus Fluttershy). They appear to be releasing the ponies in order (very slowly) in the US.
