The Bon Bon toy matches the pony on the show completely, which wasn't the case with Sassaflash. I would hesitate putting 2nd party merchandise ahead of 1st party merchandise no matter how much effort was put into either one; Hasbro's full ownership of the brand and the characters simplifies things, because we don't have to consider which depiction is more well-made, only whether or not it represents Hasbro's current stance.
