Unpopular Pony Opinions

[invaderhorizongreen]

I am not found of the blind bags at all, I would rather have more variety among the brushable ones. Also I dislike the new gen 4 pose and only like DJ pony in it.

I've never been a huge fan of the 'Tootsie pose', but I think a lot of people like it and favour it. I only just recently got Cherries Jubilee, the only one I have in this pose, because I don't like it so much. It seems awkward somehow.

I strongly strongly dislike that pose as well.

Not sure if this has already been said, but I don't like the Sweetheart Sisters or any ponies in that pose...

Ah so it seems to be a bit more common than I thought, the dislike of the Tootsie pose.

I feel the same on the Sweetheart Sisters, too, and the Bride pose. They all seem like they aren't G1s. The Bride pose seems like some corruption of the Quackers pose, which I think would have been fine had they modified it without making it overly slender. The Sweetheart Sisters have so many pretty designs and colours and such, but I can't bring myself really to invest in having them because of the poses and overall design; they just don't appeal to me. Oh well! Plenty of others love them.

I like the SHS. It's mostly because of Starflash and the other Glittering ponies, though. Starflash was a childhood pony for me, and I have a gorgeous Moonshimmer (Twinkler in USA) and Sunblossom as well. I would LOVE some nice minty prom queens - my loose ones are all a bit worse for wear but I think they are really pretty as well.

I hate the bride pose though. I never wanted either Pony Bride or Bridal Beauty. My sister has both but I'm not interested. And while I like Confetti and Satin and Lace, I am not interested in them dressing up as brides, either. Bridal ponies are utterly unnecessary to me O.o. So Satin and Lace and Confetti get away with it - they're enough ponies on their own without all the accoutrements. Bridal Beauty and Pony Bride are just...nope.

Yup.

I'm thinking Hasbro botched the names of that particular set of SHS.

I agree with you! Too many drinks one Christmas party, I think! Starflash. Yes, lets give her hearts. Bright Night? Bows makes sense. Sunblossom? She should have stars. And the final one is Moonshimmer here and Twinkler there. Twinkler is quite generic but those are definitely not moons.

But even if you switched them around, made the yellow Sunblossom, and the pink Starflash, bows and hearts still don't really make sense with the other two names

In the comic Hasbro added to the mess by making Starflash white and pink xD.

They're Nirvana ponies from Spain.

oh...oh my gOD!! i am LAUGHING

I like Algodoncete's colors and symbol though. It's like a rain storm.

I almost liked them when I saw this photo on Pinterest (I didn't know that their eyes open and close), but I realised that I just thought that the photo was very sweet. I see other pictures of them, and I may like a colour scheme or a name or a symbol, but overall, they are just not for me.

That IS a very cute photo! they look like theyre having a really nice dream

Me neither, at first. But then I ended up with a pair and they grew on me, especially wearing g3 accessories that happen tobfit perfectly. (Crown, flower Bouquet, and skirt) Just those two, though. As funny as the spotted giraffe-looking one is to me, I definitely don't want more.

I had a pony bride (the more common/cheap one) as a kid and, though I liked her colors, she was the first non-duplicate that I was willing to let go of when I was selling my old toys in college.

I also don't like the wedding ponies. Bridal Beauty & Pony Bride make me think of Miss Havisham from Great Expectations. The bridal ponies' identities are locked into being brides to the point where they've assumed permanent names associated with a one-time event, just as Miss Havisham wore her wedding gown every day as permanent attire despite it only being for a one-time event.

@PrincessNikki : It's super cute, right? I was shocked that they were Piggies and kept staring at it for a good while trying to figure it out and reconcile my opposing feelings. I wonder whose photo it is, maybe someone on here? I'm very curious about that now.

@Khoufu : I would have liked Pony Bride and Bridal Beauty more if they weren't in that goofy pose. I think a Quackers or Posey pose would have been lovely (but the Posey pose is possibly my top favourite, so I'm a bit partial). Same goes for others who were in the Bride pose.

@northstar3184 : I haven't read Dickens () but I think the locked identities you mentioned are another factor in my general disinterest in those two specifically. Confetti and Satin 'n Lace, as Taffeta brought up too, are excused for me because I like them aside from the wedding themes that were attached to them, and they had more potential not to be bogged down by that one theme, especially without the accessories (Satin 'n Lace actually just makes me think of 80s Madonna or Cyndi Lauper or Blondie, not weddings).

My unpopular opinion is that I quite like the Waterfire pose, I thinks it's a pretty nice one. It looks like the pony is sticking its tongue out to be silly or blowing a bubble gum. ^^
I also quite enjoy G3 tinsel as long as I don't see it too often. Problem is, I feel like I have too many tinseled ponies to enjoy this feature anymore. *Non-tinseled ponies are okay too, hasbro ! *
I just got Fancy Free yesterday with a bad case of tail rust. If my de-rusting methods ruins her tinsel, I'm pretty sure I'd be up to de-tisel her completely. But I'm still unsure, I don't like to damage ponies, I'm the first one against de-tinseling. That might hurt so much. ._.

Oh, and speaking of printed-out accessories....This upcoming lineup...

Wellp, spoiler about the new lineup(School of friendship brushables), you've been warned twice.

Spoiler

Look at this nightmare, I can't bear to look at those shoes.

those outfits would be better moulded on

[RoseNoire]

Of course they would. What were they thinking ? Also, if they dare to do that, they should bring back the butt symbol on both sides for G5 instead, that would be a nicer thing to do.
