I felt a twinge of nostalgia when I found out that My Little Pony is turning 25 this year (me too! Back in the day I was the proud owner of the My Little Pony castle - with a working elevator...!). To commemorate the occasion Hasbro Inc. has produced the "My Little Pony Project: 25 Ponies for 25 Years". Designers have been commissioned to create mini figurines to be auctioned off online until October 2 to support the Give Kids the World charity. Some of the 25 designers are: Toki Doki, Japanese manga artist Junko Mizuno, John Stamos (yes that's right, Uncle Jesse!) and Kimora Lee Simmons. Graffiti artist Claw Monkey wins the prize for their pimped out pony in a silk jacket and mini-gold Nikes.

If you're not able to grab a pony before it sells out; you could just get the real deal - I'm sure the lady in your life won't mind - especially if it comes with the equestrian ensemble as seen on "Mad Men's" January Jones (NB: piercing blue eyes not included).
