Release Info

  • One of the MLP Read Along books - Kid's storybooks that came with records/tapes that read the book out loud

    • There are a variety of G1 Read Along Books, Most used cassette tapes instead of records, but the Kid Stuff produced ones also used records

    • There are pictures showing Kids Stuff books with matching cassette tapes and with matching records, so presumably they sold two different versions - one with a record, and one with a tape

  • Kid Stuff is actually also a record label - They licensed the soundtrack for the G1 MLP Movie! They released soundtracks, tie-in albums and book-and-record books for a variety of popular children's franchises, including Transformers and Raggedy Ann

Comments

This website is purely for educational/archival purposes. I do not own the rights to My Little Pony, and most photos on this site are not my own. I provide image sources if the source is still available online, but there are far too many photos for me to ask each person for permission (and some are from users who are inactive or not possible to contact -- i.e., from sites like Worthpoint) - The whole point of the site is collecting as many photos as possible. I try to ask permission on social media or forums that I'm active on, especially if I'm using a lot of photos from one person. If you own one of the photos on this site and do not want it here, message me and I will remove it. This isn't meant to take credit from or upset anyone; It is just for fun and to help record the existence of these toys. If you are made uncomfortable by me using your photos, I will remove them for you.
