OTHER COMMENTS/INFO:

• In 2018, for the 35th Anniversary of MLP, Hasbro licensed out the rights to G1 MLP to manufacturer Basic Fun, who made re-releases of several G1 brushables.

• Firefly was released as part of Basic Fun's Unicorn & Pegasi Collection, which also included Glory, Twilight, Moondancer, Sunbeam, and Medley.

• She came with a red bow and a red brush. This does not match her original release

• To tell if a pony is a genuine G1, or a Retro re-release, you can look at the date on their hooves. A notable difference between the two will also be the texture of the plastic - vintage G1's are made of a more rubbery-feeling plastic, whereas the Retro re-releases are made of a more solid, hard plastic.
