Invent your own pony line!
« on: May 25, 2016, 01:49:11 AM »
So as of late, I've begun to realize I have a lot of ideas for themed pony lines, in the vein of G1's pony sets. From soda float ponies with transparent, bubbly bodies to jewel-toned queens, my brain's been going wild recently. So--what kind of pony line would you like to see? What kind of concepts can you come up with? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Ooh, I love soda floats! I planned a set of ancient egyptian ponies for an artwork piece once. One had a scarab symbol and the other one an ankh, and they had this extra eyeliner to imitate the hieroglyph art.
I'm looking to buy Port-o-Bella. Please email me.

I had thought of a line of pegasus stallions named for tropical weather.  Monsoon, Hurricane, Jet Streak, Trade Wind, Pineapple Express, and Squall Line.  Their gimmick is that they come with Hawaiian-style shirts and have tropical island-themed backcard stories.

I did this as a kid, a lot. I have several terrible traced or scribbled images from my very young self xD. I remember inventing a set of ponies with horns and wings. Also some flutter ponies in more bold and vivid colours. The ponies with horns and wings were princesses, they had some kind of rainbow and jewelled connection. I think I created about eight of them, but I don't remember the names of any of them now.

I remember one looked a lot like Tickle in colours, only with a horn. I think I imagined them to have slimmer, flutterish bodies, but with proper pegasus wings, not flutter wings. I know another was yellow. I can't recall the rest :) but I remember writing them all special magic tricks, like the comic ponies had :)

I've done this a lot as a kid with many of my toys! I have been thinking of a few new g1 toylines to create since I joined here.

One toyline I dreamed up is a clear sparkily ponies with star themed names and symbols, like a blue and purple one called "Crystal Comet" and a purple, red, and white one called "Stellar Swirl" after the milky way! Fun spacey things like that LOL.

I also like the thought of sea ponies with horns like a narwhal, except not a tooth, but a unicorn seapony.

I also want to invented a set of G4's in my head a set of glow in the dark pastel ponies with glow in the dark paint and hair. In my head I've got a few with starry symbols, a blue pony with pink and white hair with a lantern symbol, a pastel pink pony with a white jellyfish symbol, and a green pony with a lightning bug symbol xD Even the packaging  will be glow in the dark! Muahaha!

I'd create holiday/seasonal G1 sets. G3 had so many wonderful winter ponies, Easter ponies, Halloween ponies, etc... It'd be great to have G1s like that.


I'd also make a massive playset. The G1 sets that were released were to small. It'd have been nice to have one that could easily accommodate 30 or so ponies.

Hmm, they probably wouldn't be very marketable but I'd love to see some 19th century nautical themed ponies, with really detailed woodcut-styled symbols (so they'd probably have to be a subset of TAFs!), with motifs like compasses, galleons and those really flamboyantly stylised serpents. :heart:

That's perfectly fine.  Do you want to know their colors?

Yeah.  I made the Mountain Boys unicorns (Sunburst having healing magic and rest having elemental magic based on their names and symbols) and created these "Island Boys" so there were stallions of all three kinds.

I love nature - could be because I'm an Earth sign  ;)

Growing up, I used to love exploring the woods and fields where I used to live. I'd sit under & climb trees, listen to the birds and just daydream. So I would have loved some G1's based on woods, forest's and trees. The colours would have been beautiful.

I think one based on a Willow Tree would be lovely. Her name would, of course, be Willow  :P

I wish I had the skill to create customs!
