My Little Pony, pre-FIM

G1 and Tales are also streaming on Tubi and the Roku channel.

Question.

I've been wondering if Mimic would qualify as an example of Ensemble Dark Horse; I know that she gets a considerable amount of fanart and appears in at least a few G4/G1 fanfics, despite her having a very minor role in the cartoon, but is she popular enough to truly fit?

I'd say so; her toy was initially dismissed for its off-the-wall colors, but because she was seen as an eyesore it looped around to being desirable and rare.

Munchy is also an ED. She's so weird. XD (Munchy is a G1 Twice as Fancy pony famous for her bizarre symbol, a bunch of hot dogs, burgers, and pickles, and even stranger back card story involving her transmogrifying sports equipment into food. Because of this she's popular among G1 collectors and the general fandom, usually in an ironic sense.)

There's a Sunbow Marvel archive that includes a lot of G1 MLP resources, including storyboards with deleted scenes, song storyboards, scripts, and character models! https://sunbowmarvelarchive.blogspot.com/

EDIT: I found more G1 stuff on this forum and thread, including stuff from the Writers' Bible! https://www.mlptp.net/index.php?threads/g1-animation-items-picture-heavy.95625/

Stuff it mentions are unmade characters like Snow Ponies and Little Burros, and personality traits for Paradise and North Star.
