Nirvana ponies are pony variants with very limited distribution. (Variants on the ponies sold in North America.)

These ponies are exclusive to certain countries because they were either only made in that country or they were only sold in that country (and made in China or Hong Kong for instance).

Ponies are listed here under their respective country. You can click on the country name for more general characteristics of ponies and extra info on country´s pony production.

Ponies with subtle variations can sometimes be identified by their hoof markings, ie MACAU, SPAIN, ITALY etc.

Ponies were exported to neighboring countries, so a MIB pony in a German language package may not be a German nirvana pony. You have to check on the package where the pony is made, or somehow get a look at the pony's hooves.
