You guys have great ideas... so I started playing with a pony generator.. first up, swimming pony, who Icecrystalline named Make-a-Splash as a potential name. They could be Sweet Heart Sisters and Big Brother ponies in the set.

I would have been awesome if Hasbro made a gymnastics pony in the same pose as the sweet steps ballerinas. I'm a gymnast so I would definitely want this pony.

I think a gymnastics pony would have been super cool - and very popular with young girls.  :)  Also like the swimming pony idea, as well as a camping set (and a back to school set.)

Ohh a pilot pony would've been great! The closest we had to that was Baby Whirly Twirly, but I know my boyfriend would enjoy a pilot pony (he's in the airforce)

What awesome ideas! We could easily bring Baby Racer into the set - got to have that motor sport represented :P

For me I am always amazed that Hasbro did not capitalise on the Punzie and Goldilocks angle and have a complete set dedicated to Fairy Tales.
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
Loa is my love god!
I love Loa more than PonyLady!

Yes! Fairy tales yes! I am one day going to commission a bunch of fairy-tale centric ponies.

Ooh Baby Racer as well!  Maybe even a grown up Baby Racer.

Every 4 years, I hope that they come out with an Olympic set. Take 12 countries, and make ponies with the country's flag as a symbol, and colors from the flag as their hair color. Then use the Olympic symbol like a G3 hoof heart. I always say I am going to do a custom set, but I never do. I really gotta get on that. lol

Or even just one Olympic pony, with colors based on the hosting country!
I think the camping set would be awesome- WoodTick, Skeeter, Backpack (Baby Schoolbag's cousin)... oh, the possibilities!
Thanks so much to Calico_Star for her beautiful work on my Avatar!

I'm loving the camping set idea. :)
Now I want a marshmallow-themed pony  :silly:
& a woodsy pony... Evergreen? He/she could be a nice deep green with chocolate-brown hair. :3

Although there are plenty of sea ponies, Im suprised they didnt make glitter translucent versions!

I like all the sports ideas! :D Camping one sounds cute too! Really, there are no Olympics ponies!? Did G1 have special store exclusives like the newer gens have with TRU, Target, etc?

 They should have done fast food ones too, hahah a mcdonalds pony (not prize toys, but adult collectables)! If they havnt that is....

 Girl Scouts Cookies Ponies? :P
