Dragons or Bushwoolies?
« on: June 10, 2022, 12:45:19 AM »
Hello everyone,

I am looking for your opinion. Just a poll for fun. Which do you prefer?

I like the dragon toys better, though I don't own them yet.

I think the bushwoolies are pretty cute in the show but I'mmnot going to seek them out.

How about you? Any preferences? I would love to hear it.

Cheers,

Luke

I voted for both, but the Bushwhoolies are certainly more original than the dragons. The recoloring of Spike just seemed a bit random.

I don't know. I've never seen a baby dragon outside of people's pictures. The dragons have better colors but are all the same. The bushwoolies have 3 moulds, but a couple color repeats.

Dragons for sure! But the Bushwoolies are very cute too.

It's not even a contest.

I like the bushwoolies fine but don't associate them with the princesses at all.

I grew up with dragons, so it will always be dragons.

I had Smokey as a child, with Princess Sapphire.

The accessory balance for all the Y5 princesses (except the weird with Amethyst's hat) is also more logical in the UK release. The hats make more sense.

And Princess Pearl and Fiery is a stunning combination.

The comments about the bushwoolies being more original are ironic to me because bushwoolies are meant to be a collective and all the same ;) whereas the dragons all had independent and distinct personalities. That's also probably a factor in why I like them more.

I have to say I like them both but I do lean more towards the dragons. I grew up on the other side of the pond and like the bushwoolies. I also love Eager. I hint towards the movie he is in.

Love Fiery, Smokey, and Prickles. But I love Friendly, Chumster, Wishful, and Eager too. I like the Hugster pose, just wish they'd had bolder colors.

What people mean is, the dragons are all on one pose, while the bushwoolies are on 3. The Friendly pose kinda reminds me of the Claymation Groke.

Quest of the Princess Ponies was my fave MLP VHS so I do have a deep princess/bushwoolie association but honestly the dragons are cooler~!

I have to say Bushwoolies. They are just adorable and I loved them in the cartoon. I don't have any, but wouldn't hesitate to grab one if I saw one at a flea market or something.

Both!!! Like, why not???
Bushwoolies: there were FAR more than six in the cartoon, so I started making pom-pom Bushwoolies to add to the numbers (look left - there's one in my profile pic). We should definitely have had more Bushwoolies.
Dragons: being in the UK I love dragons. We all do here; dragons are a big part of our myths & legends. And Taffeta has elaborated on the characters each of the Princess dragons had. I also have some HQG1C dragons, including a whole bunch of glittery dragons I Customised to go with Glittery Boy Ponies to make Glitter Prince & Dragon pairs. I even crafted some Fimo dragons for the second set of Princesses, plus one for my Custom pegacorn Princess. I WISH we had a toy of G3 Spike
My Mascots (so far): Twisty Tail, G2 Trixiebelle, Starcatcher, Twilight Sparkle. All variants & pictures of these are appreciated. Piccies courtesy of Griffin, Blumiere, Littlebabyribbon, & Starscout
