Thomas D. ★★★★★

I bought this for the shelf of ponies I've kept since I was a kid, and Cover C's Bousamra artwork feels like it was ripped straight from those old storybooks. The glossy pages really make the colors pop, and seeing Minty and Cotton Candy again in a fresh light genuinely made my week.

Harper ★★★★★

The nostalgia hit me the moment I flipped through the pages—seeing the original six ponies like Minty and Blossom brought back so many childhood memories. It’s a well-made collector’s issue that nails the anniversary vibe without feeling like a cash grab.

Matthew ★★★★★

The cover art by Bousamra captures the six original ponies perfectly, and the special issue’s deep dive into their 1983 debut makes it a must-have for any collector who grew up with the toys. I’ve already read it twice and keep noticing small details in the illustrations each time.
