Year 3. Confetti, Pinwheel, and Trickles.

[SourdoughStomper]

In my childhood, I had one pony from each. Parasol and Tickle. Year 2 is so classic looking, but that chartreuse color in the Threes is so fetching.

I can't decide!

Although, I think I lean a bit more toward the threes, today.

year three for sure! i love how vibrant the colors are

[HelloGoodbye]

It was a close call for me, but I went with year 2.  I think Parasol was the deciding factor.  Personally, I think she's one of the most beautiful ponies ever, so she helped tip the scale towards year 2.  I also really like Moonstone, Windy, and Sky Dancer.  Well, I like all of them, those are just my faves.  It was a hard choice though because I LOVE all of the Rainbow ponies.  They're probably one of my favorite sets.

I can't decide!  I love both of these sets, and Moonstone is my favorite overall (with Starflower being my favorite of the Year 3's) but... they're all so gorgeous~!  I really need to get my hands on Confetti, Flutterbye, Pinwheel, and Trickles so I can have all of these lovely girls.

I love all of Year 2. I only love Tickle from Year 3

I think Year 3 if you have shy pose Confetti, I prefer her in that pose although I liked Confetti a lot more once I worked out she's not necessarily a wedding pony, I think her US backcard says something about her cutting out streamers and paper dolls 

Plus I love yellow chartreuse

Year two.  I honestly love both sets, but year two is just, I don't know, just so pretty.  I love vibrant colors, but for the rainbow sets, I really like the more pastel, soft colors.

I also really like the pegasus poses for year 2.

Mmmm, so hard! I almost voted for year 2 because of Starshine (my first pony), but I like more of the ponies from year 3! So I guess year 3 it is...

Year two.  It says "rainbow" and not "we picked four random colors out of a hat" like G3 does.  I also like the look of more Year 2 rainbow ponies (Starshine is the best of the whole dozen).  The Year threes are still great ponies, but the Years still edge them out.

That made me chuckle a bit. lol

Year 2!!Love them all!! Besides I'm still trying to complete Year 3 (Trickles, by the way)

[slyons]

I've had both sets since childhood, and can't really say I prefer one over the other... although for this poll I picked Year 3, mainly because of Confetti 

I would like to put this out there... my entire set of Year 3's are afflicted with age spots... some of them real bad, but my Year 2's barely anything... anyone else notice this with their ponies?

[Juliepants]

I really can't decide on this!! I had five of the year twos as a child, and I now have the full sets of both. I really really love each one of them!!! It's so tough!! If really pushed, I'd probably have to pick the year twos, because I physically owned them as a child. But most of the other set were top of my wish list as a child although I only got them last year.  See what I mean about how tough it is??!!
