OTHER COMMENTS/INFO:

• Butterscotch had multiple releases, but looks functionally the same in all of them, with only differences being in packages and accessories. In order, her releases are:

  • 2003 - Europe Exclusive line Seasons Celebration Ponies - She came with a charm and orange brush

  • 2003 - Walmart Exclusive Promo packs - Paired with another pony - Sparkleworks or Minty, depending on the pack - Earlier versions had a misplaced hoof heart - on the inisde instead of the outside of her hoof

  • 2004 - Berry Pickin' Fun - Berry themed dress up set - She comes with a hair brush, picnic basket, two berry baskets, a hat, and a shawl

    Her colors in this one are slightly different than in her other 2 releases, but only small differences in shades - Her fur is a little darker, her cutie mark is less saturated, her eyes are more green

  • 2005 - An Easter Egg themed pack - She comes with hair brush, watering can, potted plants, bunny ear headband, and little shoes - She has darker fur, and more orange toned eyes (First 2 releases were brown toned)

  • 2005 - Came with the CVS Exclusive Super Sundaes Ice Cream Parlor play set, along with Lickety Split and Cupcake

  • 2006 - Kohls Exclusive re-release of the Super Sundaes Ice Cream Parlor play set

• For identification of the small differences between the different Butterscotch releases, look at this page on Strawberry Reef!

• She has a magnet under her hoof and tinsel in her hair

• As a young teen, I decided my G1 Butterscotch was a guy, so I'd feel better about liking My Little Pony, as a guy. In honor of this, I think Butterscotch is a bigender he / they / she - Perhaps a drag queen?
