Unpopular Pony Opinions

[Ponyfan]

I have a few favorite  G1 episodes including Rescue at Midnight Castle, Escape from Catrina and The Glass Princess. I never get tired of watching the ponies go through the pony wash. I’m not a big fan of Bright Lights or Quest of the Princess ponies. Revolt of Paradise Estate is a fun episode for me too. I also like the Prince and the Ponies.

Wow. I can't believe this thread has gone on for 49 pages. That's cool.

I don't always mind cut hair. Sometimes it actually looks really cute when it's short! I guess it all depends on the pony and how much hair was chopped off.

Yes! I have two Shaggies, one in great condition with long hair, and one in less great condition with chopped hair. The "nice" one is always in my pony box, while the chopped one is always around somewhere so I can see her. She just has the cutest toddler hair! It's really like she was supposed to be this way.

My chopped Shaggy:

I know this is a very unpopular perspective for many people (and for others not so much!) but to me MLPs are collectibles.  a lot of people say that they're toys first and their condition doesnt matter, etc.  and I am happy to know that most of my ponies have been loved in the past!  but I will sometimes upgrade a pony to a better-condition one (I found an UU&A with nice pink hair so my faded one is off the shelf and will hopefully go to a good home soon!).  I also upgrade my childhood ponies for collector pieces on the shelf, and keep the beat-up childhood toys separate.  my ponies don't have to be mint but I want them to look near-mint on the shelf and in most photos.  I like them lined up in rows, and quantity does matter to me; having a large collection makes me feel proud, accomplished, and very fortunate.

Interesting, Lockette! I am not sure your opinion is unpopular, I have heard a lot of other collectors who do that (upgrading and selling on the original). Myself personally, I keep the original and the upgrade, which is part of the reason for my space issues xD. Although there are rules associated with this because originally I collected with my sister. So if it's a pony she had and then I got one, probably I will upgrade mine and sell the one I have already because the 'collection' one belongs to Naynie and so mine is just a fill-in. If it's one that I had originally in the collection, I will keep both.

I might have, if it were new and fresh.

I find it interesting, but I'm neither excited or horrified by it. I like speculation about stuff, but to me that's all it is. I still consider G5 a myth until it actually appears on our shelves. Hasbro are prone to changing their minds. Often

They do seem a wee bit wishy-washy from time to time.

I LOVE late generation gimmicks.  Colorswirl, color-changing, tropical neon, rockbeat, dance n prance ponies -hay yeah. The g4 ones too (snowglobe, pearly, seaponies), but I'd like them more if I liked g4 style better  :P1

I like them as well, just some of the funkiness to them.

With G4, I kinda hafta have gimmicks. They're mostly not worth owning otherwise. Impo.
