I have the full set, plus Powderpuff and Pixie (though strictly speaking, Pixie isn't mlp!), plus all the McDonalds clips. I'm a big fan  :blush:
Don't have the Sweet Scoops charm though....  :cry:

I need and want ALL of them!!
But so far as favourites longingly viewed through a screen, I think the colour combos of Lavender Cloud and Berries n Cherries are great :)

The first time my husband heard the pony talk he could swear it said 'pull my finger'.
It actually said 'comb my hair', but now none of us can un-hear the former  XD XD

I have avoided reading all the hidden spoilers, since hubby and I just finished watching episode 7 last night.

I am loving it.

But it took time for me to get fully absorbed. I have outright really liked Aughra and the Skesis from the first minute (the skesis are so bloody hilarious and delightfully nefarious in equal measure!), but some aspects of the gelfings took me a while to adjust to. Mostly because of the jokey, corny (and at times, stilted) dialogue in places which honestly, just made me cringe big time. I felt like a lot of the humour (also with regards to some of the podling antics) was a bit overdone.

But having said that, by about episode three I was getting right into the (really good) character development and a lot of that initial awkwardness has fortunately settled. I have found it quite moving in places
Spoiler
my gosh, that scene where they sing in that circle re the deaths of the Au Maudra and Rhian's father!!  :cry: 
and (not being familiar with the prequel source material) am finding the storyline thus far so clever and interesting.


So yeah, so far so wonderful. This is easily the most creative and imaginative show I've watched in a long time. can't wait to watch the remaining episodes
Spoiler
even though I know it ultimately can't end well!!

I'd like to get her one day because a) I've started almost obsessively collecting G3; b) I'm a September baby; and c) I have a thing for blue and white ponies  :lol:

This was my first ever Italian pony.

It was also the first ever Surprise I owned.

Lol - likewise!
I still have my girl and love her. I prefer her a bit more to regular Surprise  :lookround:

Pony Corral / Re: Should I....

This is a really weird reply for me; because normally I am NOT a fan of re-hairing/re-pinking and like my ponies in original condition.

But in her case, I say go for it (white hair).

Yes, she's sought after; expensive.... but it's not like she's a rare nirvana and the world general is going to shrink back in horror. She pops up often enough, and for me personally, I just wouldn't enjoy seeing her in my collection like that, especially if I knew it would be rather difficult to get an upgrade.

I was lucky enough to get a Baby Princess Sparkle once, but her hair was completely white. I am not a big spender on individual ponies, and I'd lucked out on her on a buy now on ebay, so I knew the chances of getting her again in my collection were pretty slim. So, I re-pinked her. And what a difference - both in her appearance and my content with her rough and ready condition. Oddly enough, I actually ended up picking up another one in a lot (rare luck) who was pretty much perfect, so I sold the old one, with the re-pink disclosed. Which is what you could do with your pony, should you find an upgrade :)  And why I think, just plain white hair (I do like saramari's idea of a donor tail) would be a better choice than glow in the dark.
