Sparkle & Speak

"Press my saddle and you'll see my crown sparkle, and hear me whinny and gallop!”

There were three Sparkle & Speak horses produced in 1991, which was the last set to be introduced. The horses didn't have individual names on their packaging, but as the Marchon catalogue did name them that is what I have gone for here.

They were created in exactly the same way as all other horses, so once the battery has worn out there was no way to change it (bar prizing open the body).

Sparkle was almost identical to the pink version of Rose Princess, differing only in her crown.

Packaging

As this was the last set to be introduced, they had a yellow scroll underneath the logo and dated 1991.

This is from the 1991 Marchon catalogue. The ponies were show with cloaks, rather than the fabric saddles they were sold with.
