Least fave twice as fancy 1st wave?
« on: May 24, 2020, 01:46:32 AM »
Since the 2nd wave forum got a lot of opinions I thought it would be interesting to do it for the first wave too so which of the 1st wave is your least liked and do you like the first wave of TAF better than the 2nd the following year?
My vote for least fave is Up Up and away. I really do not like that bright pink magenta body colour mixed with the fading pink hair. Also not a fan of the green and yellow balloon symbol choice with those colours. Love Melody isn't far behind. I mean did we really need two Quackers poses in this set? On the other hand my fave is dancing butterflies I'm a big fan of the locket pose & yellow ponies and her butterfly symbols are so aesthetically pleasing to me. Even though dancing butterflies might be my fave of all the TAF ponies I personally prefer the second wave more than the first overall.

Milky Way, I don’t like the pose, and the stars tend to loose glitter.

I prefer the first wave to the second, because they're the Ponies we had in the UK, & Dancing Butterflies, Milky Way, Love Melody & Up-Up & Away were in my old collection from when I was younger. Because of this my least fave of the first wave is unfortunately Lollipop/ Sweet Tooth. I must admit overall the TAFs did overdo the pink hair, with as many if not more having a shade of pink hair than not. However, Strawberry Fair's hair (I much prefer that name to Sugarberry, which I reserve for her baby) was more in tune with her strawberry theme what with being almost red, while Lollipop's hair is the same boring shade of pink as the Birthflowers & many others. On top of this Strawberry Fair did make it well into the "50 most beautiful Ponies" website (who remembers that???), though I honestly find Dancing Butterflies more beautiful - that yellow!!! Those butterflies!!! That graceful pose!!! - IMO she's the most beautiful of the set.

Sweet Tooth. I had her as a kid and she just never stood right, and I never really cared for the symbols.

I don't dislike any of them, but if I had to pick one, I guess it would be Up, Up and Away for me too. That's a bit too much pink for my taste, although her bright yellow and green balloons help balance out the overpowering pink.

Hmm, let's see, I've only ever owned Milky Way from that series. I agree with the others, Up, Up and Away's bright pink is definitely not my cup of tea, and I don't really like Sugarberry / Strawberry Fair either, her hair is too bright as well. I prefer pastel colours.  :) Dancing Butterflies is definitely my favourite of this set.

I have a feeling this will be unpopular, but my least favorite is Dancing Butterflies. Way too much yellow for me x)

Sweet Tooth for me. She just doesn't do it for me, and UpUp was one of my first ponies.

Dancing Butterflies.  Too much yellow and butterflies get boring quick.

This is one of my favorite sets, so it's hard. Milky Way, UU&A, and Dancing Butterflies are childhood ponies, and Sugarberry was a collection goal. Sweet Tooth came from a once dear friend. So probably Love Melody. She was the last I acquired to complete the set and the one I have the least emotional attachment to.

Sweet Tooth/Lollipop I say with slight hesitation. They're all solid designs, but they also play it pretty safe. The second TAF set is more daring and creative as far as color schemes and symbols go. (Which often seems to be the case whenever there's a follow-up set, like with the first/second Rainbow and Twinkle Eyes sets.)

Up Up Away. I don't dislike her, but she doesn't do much for me. If I had to rank them, it'd be

Sugarberry
Dancing Butterflies
Milky Way
Love Melody
Sweet Tooth
Up Up and Away.

Sweet tooth. I don't like her pose, and her color combination is lackluster to me. Followed closely by Love Melody for the same reasons, but her colors are slightly better.

Unpopular opinion here, but Up Up and Away is one of my favorites, 2nd to Sugarberry/Strawberry Fair. Her pink hair is kind of surprising in combination with her green and yellow balloons; I would have expected her to have yellow hair or something. Dancing Butterflies would have been a fave (love her yellow on yellow) but for her pose...that is my least favorite G1 pose. Milky Way is the opposite for me; I love the Mimic pose, but find MW's colors kind of boring.

Love Melody. She's just completely forgettable to me. Second least favorite would be Sweet Tooth. I absolutely love all the others!
