A world of knowledge

Although prices might have fluctuated from printing, this is still such a solid resource on My Little Pony. Clear, concise descriptions accompany beautifully done photographs, which illustrate many versions of the classic pastel equines. Also included are several examples of MLP items that non-pony, such as accessories, radios, sleeping bags, and more. Debra also writes about foreign ponies, given well sought information to even the most experienced collector. I use this often to identify ponies, rather than having to search through fan databases on the internet. Hopefully, they'll be a second edition with even more foreign ponies. Well worth your money, it will help you with your collection over and over again.

Worth the wait!

This book was a great addition to the My Little Pony collecting community. I couldn't be more pleased with it! The photos are large and clear, and all of the info a new collector could use is here. It seems like we were forever without a guide book, and we have one at last! It was well worth the wait.

Great Comprehensive guide to pony collectibles

This is a wonderful book for anybody interested in My Little Pony. These small collectibles are becoming one of the hottest items on the second hand market. If you are only a starting collector or and avid one, this book is for you. It conatins pictures of over 630 ponies, and even includes variations, pony friends, and the such. Not only are these wonderful pictures included, but so are playsets,clothing, and other collectibles such as movies, clocks,keychains,posters ect. This is a well written book and is needed for any fan. All should be greatful to the author, Debra for doing such a great job. The only thing off may be the price guide. Different collectors offer different prices. However with indexed names, it is easy to calculate your collection in no time. I reccomend this book to any pony collector!

FINALLY!

I'm an avid collector of the toy series, and it is about time someone published a guide to the toys. Any MLP collector knows this book is definately worth the purchase.

My Little Pony--a GREAT book for the MLP Lover !

This is a GREAT "detailed" My Little Pony Book. "The World of My Little Pony, A Guide to Pony Collectibles", is a MUST have for any MLP Lover. Although this book has only the American Ponies, the pictures of the Ponies lets you catalog your collection in no time. Find the Ponies you are missing or name the Ponies you have. There are great pictures of Ponies MIB or MIP too. There are MANY, MANY other My Little Pony items not listed but this book really gives one a better insight into the Pony World. This book does have other items pertaining to My Little Pony like the play-sets and videos, audio tapes, and Pony clothing. It also has Pony purses, sleeping bags, skates, etc. I believe you will find this book very informative. This book also has a pricing guide but REMEMBER, just because it says how much a Pony would cost in the book, prices ONLY reflect the authors view. If you need a particular pony-you will pay more...if you have 2 or 3 of the same pony laying around-you will pay less. The old adage goes here of beauty is in the eye of the beholder--the same goes for $$ amounts. The author, Debra Birge, did a Wonderful job-thank you Debra for bringing our beloved Ponies back to life.
