I don't mind getting a pony with completely faded hair. It means I can display her. Also I love faded Yum Yum.

I don't like the collector or shy pose, on topic of early ponies. I like Firefly and Glory poses but the first 2 years didn't have any earth pony poses that I liked except for sitting pose, which they only used for 2 ponies.

For some reason I just can't get into pegasi. Their poses and color schemes I find to be uninteresting. Wingers and flutterponies are out, too. The only pegasi I'd want for my collection are Locket and Starcatcher. They are their respective generational exceptions, it seems.

That's certainly an unusual opinion. First time I've ever heard it.

I don't get the love for Peachy. Her colors look like they don't mesh well and she's on a pose I don't like.

I concur on this. Everyone was getting so excited about the possibility of a parlour retro release and I'm sitting thinking - does the world really need more Peachys?

Raaarrrrrr!!!!

Taffeta cannot come to the computer at the moment. She is too busy evacuating to a safe location.

Year 1 and Year 2 (minus the sitting pose) don't appeal to me as much as they seem to do to others. MLP was really brought to life as of Year 3 IMO. Oh gosh, I feel like I'm betraying the brand...

I'm with you on this. The only pony that appeals to me from the first two years is Sunbeam. I do like some ponies in Year 3, but haven't added any to my herd yet. Currently, all of my ponies are from Years 4-6 and 1 pony from Year 9.

I also have 4 European exclusives and plan to add a few more, because I think they got some of the better ponies over there. That may be an unpopular opinion; I don't know.

I guess it depends which European exclusives and where in Europe. The UK didn't get all those lovely y2 and 3 pegasus and unicorn ponies so it's hard for me to agree on that, but most of Europe did get them so *shrug*

G1 Pegasus wings are weird. They are rows of bumps! And they are hard to draw if you want to be accurate. It took me a bit to not find them weird, but I'm fine with them now and don't really notice.

I always thought the Firefly mold wings look like the wings are folded, like the pony just landed and folded her wings back.

Tafetta, was this a reply to my post here?

I was referring to what you guys got in the UK. I'm not sure which sets you guys didn't get (other than the ones you mentioned and I think the So Softs, right?), but you got so many that I love: Hopscotch, Cascade, Good Weather, Thundercloud, Fireball, Sweet Delight, Sports Time, Painting Time, Music Time, Snowdrop, Love Story, Love Token, Patch, Bright Eyes, hollywood Northstar, hollywood Buttons, and hollywood Wind Whistler to name some.

Yeah, I was. We'll blame my lack of quoting ability on delayed jetlag? (no excuse really xD)

The trouble with European and UK releases is that they aren't uniform across the continent so different places had different ranges. And that there's the misconception we got everything plus exclusives, when actually we mostly got exclusives in place of other ponies. The early unicorns and pegasus ponies were heavily promoted here but not sold in the UK.  There are actually a lot of other sets available in the US or other places such as 2nd release princesses, TAF etc that we didn't get either. We also only had 10/15 Twinkle Eyes. So I guess overall it balances out.

Also, thank you for not calling Buttons, North Star & Wind Whistler NSS ponies :hug:
