This is a leftover from the original artwork, where artist Marcelo Matere was under the impression that Glen was a girl. Though Glen was eventually redrawn to be a boy, the Pony remained.
Trivia
- Many Generation 1 voice actors, including Frank Welker, Susan Blu, and Charles Adler, also worked on the first My Little Pony TV series
- In an interview, Buzz Dixon claimed that his initial "punch-up" of the script for My Little Ponies: The Movie would have featured the ponies encountering characters from The Transformers, among other Hasbro franchises.
- At one point one of the Little Ponies had to go looking for...something or someone, I forget. I suggested she encounter some of the Transformers and Joes in her search, specifically, a scene where she flies up to Shipwreck who is drinking some amber fluid from a bottle.
- Shipwreck would just stare at her in bug-eyed disbelief and she’d fly on, then Shipwreck would smash the bottle, take his cap off his head, put his left hand over his heart and raise his right hand in an oath, muttering frantically under his breath. Hasbro said, "Very funny. No."
- According to Aaron Archer at the BotCon 2008 Hasbro Commentary viewing of the live-action Transformers film, the My Little Pony prop carried by the little girl had to come from the personal collection of a Hasbro employee, as that particular style of figure ceased production prior to the beginning of the movie's filming. She never got it back, as it was later auctioned for charity, and whether she was ever able to replace it is uncertain.
- In Transformers Animated, Professor Princess' flying unicorn doll Powdered Sugar is a homage to My Little Pony toys.
