I'm not sure if I still have them, but I used to love MLP (the original '80's ones!) - I kept ahold of them for years and haven't seen them since moving to our new house - but I can't remember giving them to a charity shop... They have to be here somewhere! I had the stable and a carry-box to take them to friends' houses!
