Backcard Stories
Note: These stories are reproduced exactly as they appear on the ponies' backcards, including all errors.
US Backcard Story
It was daybreak on a beautiful spring morning. Dawn raised her head while the sun rose over the hill. The honeybees in the garden buzzed happily from flower to flower, collecting nectar to make honey in their hive.
A magical pegasus, with rainbow-colored hair, hovered over the beatiful flower garden. The bees stopped to stare at her. "She looks just like a rare rainbow butterfly!" one bee whispered to another.
The pegasus gracefully flew down and said to the bees, "Your sweet smell so flowers! I mean... your flowers smell so sweet! May I pick some to take back with me?" (When the pegasus gets excited, she gets her "mix" all "talked" up.)
The bees buzzed excitedly. "What's your name?" they asked. "Butterfly... no, no it's Flutterbye!" the pegasus answered, giggling at her mistake. The bees thought that Flutterbye was beautiful and very funny, so they gave her a huge bouquet of flowers and a large pot of their sweetest honey.
Media Appearances
Flutterbye was a character in the UK comics. She was good friends with Septimus Spider who once saved her when she hurt her wing.
According to the comics, her birthday is March 28th.
Argentinian Flutterbye
There are at least 11 Argentinian Flutterbye variants. [1][2]
Argentinian Flutterbye Variant I
- Brillitos Ponies
- Bowtie pose with a orange body and light pink hair
Argentinian Flutterbye Variant II
Argentinian Flutterbye Variant III
- Firefly Pose with a yellow body with green hair and blue butterflies
Argentinian Flutterbye Variant IV
- Firefly Pose with a yellow body with red hair and blue butterflies
Argentinian Flutterbye Variant V
Argentinian Flutterbye Variant VI
- Glory Pose with a orange sparkle pony body and light pink hair
Argentinian Flutterbye Variant VII
- Collectors Pose with a light purple/blue(?) body with purple hair, and three red butterflies, AKA Hybrid Blue Belle with Flutterbye symbols (unconfirmed/considered as fake!).
Back in around 2004 or 2005 these were "made" by someone in Argentina and sold on eBay. It is said that the seller had factory stamps and the blank trotting pose ponies, as well as other bits and they were cobbling ponies together. Back then, there were LOADS of Argies on eBay, many real and some "made up" and some "repaired hair". In result, there also is a wide variety of Flutterbye ponies in both CP and walking pose with fake/custom symbols painted on them.
Argentinian Flutterbye Variant IIX
- Posey Pose
- white body, 3 red butterflies, white mane and tail
AKA symbol stamping test/white prototype pony (unconfirmed/considered as fake!).
