Hi guys, my sister and I have been trying to identify some toy horses we got for Christmas of 1996.
I remember asking for the horse because I saw it on a TV commercial and my sister got one too, they were both part of the same series. They were plastic horses, I don't think they were articulated, but they had batteries inside that allowed them to light up. They were the size of standard toy horses, too small for a Barbie to ride. Looking at the main website here, they seem similar to the Fashion Star Fillies, but these were from the mid-90s so not part of that line.
Mine was kind of a turquoise color, with purple legs, mane, and tail. The gimmick on mine was that she had purple plastic flowers in her hair that lit up. I think there was also a purple plastic jewel on her forehead and some kind of glittery design on her hindquarters.
My sister's was pink with purple legs and a light pink, crimped main and tail. Hers had big red Pegasus wings that also lit up.
I have a few low-res photos from Christmas of that year if it helps.
I hope you experts can figure it out!
