The theory we came up with back in the day for why Celestia was always pink is that technically she *is* pink, just a really light pink. Compare her to Rarity or other white ponies and she's a different shade and has pink line art. Probably on her official write up that goes between the cartoon and toy departments she's listed as "light pink" so that's what they mix up in the factory.

[@mageofdoomsie1598]

Yea she’s more cream than white, but given the sheer amount of pink Celestia I wouldn’t doubt the theory that they made her pink to sell toys.

Instead of a mane she just had her fuzzy grey pony head out for all the world to see. There was no indication she'd ever even had a mane; no ripped seams or places where it looked like someone had removed her locks. just a big, round, bald head. obviously she came home with me.

13:25 Celestia's coat isn't white. It's pale pink. But it's a VERY pale pink. I think a lot of manufacturers didn't want to replicate it, so they just went with the lightest pink they already had on hand

[@minimaemarch]

​@venusrhodonite6988and Im pretty sure rarity is also not completely white too (could be wrong) and I don't see anyone make her not white!

[@swucifer]

it could also be due to the fact she has a notable pink outline as well, she's an extremely subtle pink tone that's washed out by the outline color itself but then the manufacturers just? ignore it and goes for the full pink even if it doesnt match the outline color and goes into a darker magenta/purple kind of color

There was also the way that so much official merch would miss out Applejack and sometimes Rarity. If 3 were included, Fluttershy would typically also be dropped.

About 10 years ago I went to a Pony Convention where the local BaB had set up a stand, and next to the table they had black bin bags full of unstuffed Twilight's and Dash's.

My theory with them using pink instead of white is just that white plastic can yellow very easily, is easy to stain, will look grubby faster, etc. Plus, if for children's toys, white is made with titanium dioxide, which innit exactly something you want a kid putting in their mouth. White plastic in general is kinda rare. You more often will get off-white, and instead of going for cream, they likely decided to just shift to pink.

[@elasunset4429]

Makes sense if it wasn't for the fact they've made Rarity toys since the start and she's always white

[@a_bear]

And in the show she has a slightly pinkish outline so the entire color could be easily interpreted as a pinkish white (?) if deemed necessary

[@HollowRoll]

Titanium dioxide is still regarded as food safe in most places, and was only taken off the list in the EU in 2021.

[@gege1178]

@@a_bear i guess, but like that isn’t a pinkish white. It doesn’t even register as off white it’s just plain pink not to mention the fact that her main is also often incorrect and I can’t find a logical reason for that . Idk man . They made rarity white so they can do it . Plus rarity has a blue outline and she’s never been anywhere near full on blue. It’s just really odd

i think a part of the reason why celestia often times was miscoloured as a pink is because if you look closely at a lot of the art of her (official art) she is a very pale pink, and also the pink outlines on her can also trick the eyes to see her as more pink-ish. that doesnt excuse her being a full on pink tho, at least they could have made a very light pastel pink that is mostly just an off white

The reason Princess Celestia toys were pink is because Hasbro REALLY REALLY wanted a pink mascot for MLP, much like how Pinkie Pie was for G3.

It also shows in that Luna toys are always a light purple instead of the dark midnight blue color she's known for (looks too 'evil').

[@heckyeahponyscans]

The Twilight rumor seems unlikely since Twilight Sparkle's design is from a G3 pony who was purple (Twilight Twinkle.) Also Lauren Faust originally envisoned her as a reintroduction of G1 Twilight, who is pink. But yeah, spot on with the Princess Celestia stuff . . . They wanted a pink alicorn to sell big toys of.

Does anyone remember the Concerned Pony blog that someone has for their terrified pony? They take her everywhere, like a Flat Stanley! It's really sweet, the love that someone has for this scared little pony fakey! I wanted one SO BAD when I first saw this blog, and to be honest, I still do today xD

[@squeakybelle3711]

yup! there's both a tumblr and twitter now

[@LiterallyYinYang1]

I think the reason the interactive twilight sparkle looks so weird and stitched together was because it wasn't made for twilight specifically. I remember seeing one in stores only it wasn't twilight, instead it was just some random unicorn for a toy line called "Little alive pets"/"my alive pets" can't remember if it was one of those or smth else along those lines. I'm assuming they made a twilight varient for a quick buck though I'm not sure which came first

[@Vampire_Logic]

My friend and I saw all those bootleg ponies with the terrified looking sad faces, and we lovingly refer to them as "My Little Worry". Because they look worried.

I remember there was a moment when the Equestria Girls dolls came out when I didn't generally have complaints, but I didn't like that they had cutie marks on their cheeks. I disliked it so much that I got my dad to help me write an email to some contact we found about how I didn't like it and how I had a better suggestion, which was that the dolls could have small stickers in their sets that girls could attach to their cheeks if they wanted to. A lady responded really nicely, saying that it was a good idea but she wasn't the one to send this suggestion to. She told us where to write about it but we would have had to write it in english (not our first language) so we procrastinated on it so long that in the end we never wrote there

[@pinkiepielunagirls4541]

back when g4 had just come out i was VERY upset that they had changed the designs of many of the g3 characters (i would've been about 8 when this happened). my dad suggested i write an email to hasbro about it so i did. multiple times. i remember one of them was literally just "dear hasbro, please make rarity pink again." unfortunately unlike you i never got a response from an actual person, i just got the auto-reply

[@Wolfdog992]

“You’re not a furry, you don’t have any MLP merch!” The one $80 statue of Celestia sitting in my room: *bet* The statue is actually really well made, it looks like it just came off the shelf even thought it’s like 5 years old and extremely accurate. Oddly enough, it was made by Hasbro. I recommend you get one.

[@pixel_99]

I'm surprised she didn't mention the NFT MLP Funkos when she was talking about them... they sure are something that exists. Also one official toy that I find extremely funny, while not from G4, is that one Hitch toy with molded on hair that comes with a brush 💀💀

[@zeframmann1641]

I have another theory about Celestia's color scheme. White plastic tends to stain and discolor over time VERY easily, and even Gunpla fans recommend you paint the white parts of your bot a slightly grey off-white to avoid yellowing over time. Could that be a factor in making Celestia more pink?

[@pinkiepielunagirls4541]

pretty sure it's been confirmed multiple times pink celestia was because the execs thought a pink princess would sell better

[@captaincaspian42]

Then why are Rarity and Sweetie Bell toys white?

[@yourenotanordinaryfella]

@@captaincaspian42 Most likely because they aren't princesses

[@thecrustyargonianmaid]

I believe Lauren Faust said that they made a lot of her toys pink, because according to toymakers girls=pink and alicorn toys were the most popular. Lauren wasn't happy about it . She also had to fight to keep celestia without a love interest. Cadence was basically just shuffled in there to be the pink,married celestia they wanted initially. Rarity toys have always been white, so they could just do it, they just wanted to cashgrab with stupid antiquated ideas

[@j.2512]

They had storages full of these toys before they even knew what the cartoon was gonna look like. The toys always go into production first and they choose things they already have the mold and materials for on stock.

[@SockMan17]

I had a busy book spike, and so did my best friend when we were younger. We had a play date one day and decided to cut their ear fin things off and feed them to him. Hence we dubbed the phrase: “well cut his ears off and feed him grass” We still quote it almost a decade later

[@FantasyFlighty]

As an owner of the original Rarity EG doll, I would like to point out that it didn’t have feet. I wanted to switch out the shoes only to realize it had these little ball numbs that connected directly to the boots. I also had some sort of twilight with wings you could press the get a voice line, and I don’t think I could get the shoes off to see what it had.

[@faerie5926]

That's how Bratz dolls are too- they don't have feet either.

[@rockhistoria2537]

As an owner of the original Twilight and fluttershy EG dolls, the sound the shoes made when they got detached were the most satisfying thing little me could hear

@@raventate0112 Less active, but definitely not dead. r/mylittlepony is very active even now.

[@Andrani]

I'm pretty sure it's the fascination of it, but also the collector value. There's G1 ponies who have incredibly wrong colors due to factory error, or because it's a version released only in one market, and because it's rare it's worth a LOT as a collection piece. Usually if you see these pop up on eBay and it goes from some lower price and the price goes up a couple hundred dollars, it's because of that factor.

I gawkingly point at the screen every time Gen 3 material comes up. Like Gen 3 Rarity on the knockoff packaging and logos. I was that kid who was excited seeing boys and adults enjoying My Little Pony, because I used to enjoy it when I was little. I had the Hidden Treasure pony with the magnetic hoof and would always make two ponies touch hooves where the magnets were, because it felt like there was a force field like dome around the hoof.

[@isabellamorris7902]
