Do you have a version of her? Your thoughts? Share some more pics!

I have had a few of her, all have been used for customs as I do not collect G4.

[Leave a Whisper]

Have a version. The Retro Mane Six Pack one's about the only one I can stand, as I think she's a bit dull and has an obnoxious attitude, but this version actually looks like a my little pony, so she's staying, despite not being one of my favorite G4s.

hot nope

[dragglereeka]

I recently got her in an Ebay bundle with some G3s. I'm not actively collecting G4, but she's grown on me a little I tried to give her the signature curls however G4 hair is so bouncy haha !

I have plenty of Raritys. Rarity with glimmer wings, Rarity brushable that came with an EQG doll, Rarity TY plush, Rarity blind bag figures, Cutie Mark Crew Rarity, Power Pony Rarity, and more. Bonus: I also have two G3 Raritys and G1 Sparkler (the pony that inspired FiM Rarity)

[BlackCurtains]

I think I might have a blindbag? Not sure.

[Taffeta]

Hasbro's most ironically named pony, possibly.

I actually have quite a few Raritys. Yes *gasp*. She was one of my first three G4 ponies, because she reminded me of Glory (not Sparkler for me) and so I chose her, along with AJ and Lily Blossom when in Finland.

She has Sparkler's symbol, but Glory was the real influence on her look.

I think that 'Glory' aspect has made me like her. Looking at my MH shelf I can see four M6 Raritys (rarities?) on top of Skelita's box. One is my original one I think and one came with the carriage, which I bought in Lille to get Starswirl but kept because the pose was different. I also have the RR one that came with the doll (it was the doll I wanted) and the one with glitter in the hair (which I bought on clearance).

...On my unit..I have...the RR2 one that was in Holly Dash's set. One with glimmer wings. Aand the 'gothic' one.

So yeah. Quite a lot...considering I don't like the M6. But the pony reminds me of Glory. So I had to have a few...

[Mana Minori]

I have several Rarity’s. I fell in love with her due to her being a fashionista. And she spoke to my long dead dreams of being a fashion designer! So I went nuts with getting lots of her!

[Safflower]

I don’t think I’ve ever had her - maybe an equestria girl once? When I still watched FiM, I didn’t exactly vibe with her character.

[LadyAmalthea]

She's always reminded me of Glory, too rather than Sparkler. The only one of her I have on display is a 6" one who sits alongside my fashion style collection, but I have a handful of others that came in random lots here and there (as Taffeta mentioned, a 'rarity' she is not), including a tinsel-haired one, another 6" one with multicolored hair, and some others. I'll probably pass the extras along, if I don't end up giving them to the kids to play with.

Pass...the G4 toys don't do anything for me (but I do like Rarity!)

Shares that particular irony with G3 Rarity. 

[Aeryala]

She's the only one of the mane six I don't have, mostly because I only get ponies from thrift stores and she's never popped up for me.  At one point I was hoping to collect the "perfect" version of each of the main characters, but having fallen out of love with FiM I'm now getting rid of all the G4 figures I have (except RD & Fluttershy since they were my wedding cake toppers).

[MJNSEIFER]

I have a Rarity plushie - she was the first pony I ever got, and I love her.  ^_^

I also have at two toy Rarities which I think are official, but one is more blue for some reason.  Both were given to me (I bought the plushie myself.)

I love her in the show as well, she's a fun and likable character in my opinion, and very beautiful.  ^_^  I could probably go on about loving her (she is my third favorite in the Mane Six.)

Re Sparkler/Glory: The pony Lauren was going to use was Sparkler, so she is the one who inspired Rarity (albeit Lauren's own interpretation of her - thought the toyline Sparkler collecting "shiny sparkling objects" kind of fits in with Rarity having a gem finding spell, but that could have been coincidence), but Lauren revealed that Glory also inspired Rarity, hence why she looks like her.

Have several blind bags of her (incl. the one with the cut tail that came in the set with Steven Magnet), some brushables incl. the Power Pony one and a fashion size, McD toy, Funko, and a Build a Bear plushie with gala dress. And yeah one of the reasons I like her is because she looks like Glory.
