Do you have a version of her? What do you think of her? Share some more pics!


I haven't come across her yet. She feels very generic to me.

When i started collecting ponies again around 2004(?) she was one of the first i had. The rich dark berry-color with the green made her fabulous to me. ^^

(and i just realized how long ago that is! Holy Moly!)

[Taffeta]

She's one of the earlier G4 ponies, isn't she. I think the second wave of rainbow type ponies? Whatever they were officially called. The one pictured is definitely the old original 2004ish one though.

I remember very much that she and her set either didn't come to the UK or only in tiny numbers. I ended up getting her and Sweetsong from the US and I still have them MIB. Then later there was the one that came in swimwear with a baby pony. I have that one MIB and loose I think. That one was a lot more common here. That one's in the pose that always makes me think she's spent too long at a wild 80s party dancing to Stayin' Alive...and I don't think she's quite as pretty as the original, because unless I miss my guess the special pack releases are matt? Still a gorgeous colour though.

In any case, I think that means I have three. Not quite an army.

Needless to say I like this pony I have a special soft spot for sakura And also for mixed shades of rich pink that's actually classy, rather than garish and cheap.

I'd like to have the Sunny Daze posed version of her. She's awfully pretty.

I absolutely LOVE Cherry Blossom, she is one of my favorite G3s!  I love the contrast between her dark body and bright hair, I love her symbol, and I love her name!

Also can I take a moment to say she is so much prettier than her pretender, G3 (and G3.5) Cheerilee.  Cheerilee's body is mucky looking compared to Cherry Blossom's and her hair colors aren't as nice either.

I love her a lot, but I don't have her yet! I just figure she's common enough I'll stumble across her in the wild. I much prefer her over Cheerilee.

[Ragamuffin]

Gorgeous! Would prefer to own the walking pose version of course, I love that pearly body! The January Carnation pose one doesn't look like the same colour... I don't care for that pose either.

[TheBeatlesPkmnFan42]

Want her, she's got a lovely body color and the hair colors go well with it. My favorite release is probably the Sunny Daze pone one, but I want all three...

i have the ponyville version (i think i had cheerilee too at some point, i had to pull her out to make sure she wasn't cheerilee, but nope, very much cherry blossom) and used to have the swimwear version when it came out. i also have easter cheerilee still.

taffeta, i don't recall having the baby pony... though i wasn't a fan of the g3 ones until recently admittedly, and even then i'm not entirely sure on that pose. entirely possible she got buried somewhere if i did have her!

Looking through my pics, my MIP one with the baby has a tesco exclusive label on the package, so I guess she was also sold here without it. I know that there were three that came with babies in Europe - Wysteria I think was one, in the diva pose, and maybe the other was Bumblesweet in the Stayin' Alive dance pose...but I'm not sure they always came like that. I have a feeling I have a loose and a MIB because I got the loose one and THEN found the one with the baby. So if that was a tesco exclusive it might explain it?

I'm not sure how the baby was sold in the US but I think it wasn't with Cherry Blossom but somehow separate or with another set?

[Sky_Rocket_Sammie]

Adore her coloring and had her back in the day which as someone else noted. 2004 has been how long gone?! feeling old   If I found her again I'd buy her.

[lovesbabysquirmy]

I love her colours, she is a favorite G3!  Even when she became Cheerilee, I still like her...

[dragonfly]

Eeeyore pose. Lol. Otherwise she's cute. Wish I still had her.

[HarmonyShare]

I have her. She's really pretty. I do like the other pose better though. Her colors are a lot of what makes her pop for me!

I got Cheerilee first and I loved her. And THEN I got Cherry Blossom, and it's true: she is just so much better. Sorry Cheerilee and all that. I've only seen one in SA so far and had a bidding war with someone else to get her.
