My Little Pony has again made the list of finalists for the\u00a0National Toy Hall of Fame<\/a>. Maybe the seventh time will be a charm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pastel toy horse with the silky mane is among this year\u2019s 12 contenders, said the announcement Wednesday from the Strong National Museum of Play, in Rochester, N.Y.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Introduced in the early 1980s, My Little Pony became an immediate hit, for a time outselling Barbie and spawning\u00a0movies<\/a>\u00a0and TV shows. The 2010 animated series \u201cMy Little Pony: Friendship is Magic\u201d led to the baffling trend of\u00a0\u201cbronies,\u201d<\/a>\u00a0a fandom of grown men.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the popularity, My Little Pony has always fallen short in the annual balloting for the Toy Hall of Fame \u2014 taking a backseat to not only Barbie, American Girl and Cabbage Patch Kids but a stick and a cardboard box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
