I like both Aurora and Nova - Aurora has a beautiful color scheme (despite, yes, it being a color scheme that MLP has already done a few times) and her symbol fits the theme of what they appear to be trying to do with toyline.

Nova also has a beautiful color scheme, and it fits the space theme a little more in my opinion - I am mixed on her symbol, because I find lightning symbols cool, but there's kind of a lot going on with it.

I actually feel that a pony with Nova's color scheme and Aurora's symbol (albeit slightly recolored) would have been perfect.
I will confess to being a brony, but I assure you that the things you may not like about them do not apply to me, I mostly keep the fandom name due to nostaligia, but I do genuinely love MLP as a whole, not just FIM, and not just the popularity of FIM - I genuinely love the show (and all the others)

I'm so torn on these.  One the one hand, I like the creativity that they are trying to bring out...on the other...I'm looking to downsize and sell off the ponies that are here.  Maybe I'd be in love if I saw them in person.  The pictures are nice, just not giving the I MUST HAVE IT!! feeling.
Thanks to Whippetluv for my awsome persona pony!!

Oohh it's so surprising for me to see that most people like Aurora best! I like her the least :blush:

Her colors look so random to me! :shocked: They just don't tie in. Her hair, symbol, eyes and antenna are all different colors while the other ponies in the set have repeating colors within their designs (Nova yellow in eyes and symbol, Polaris' hair, eyes and antenna matching the symbol, Milky Way's antenna matching the symbol).

Also Aurora matches the coloring in the original Hasbro concept art the least out of the four. That bugs me. To match she artwork hair should have been more greenish and the eyes less green. Then her coloring would also look less randomly thrown together ^.^ Her color combo in the original artwork makes more sense.

I like Nova and Polaris best :biggrin: (Would have liked it even better if Polaris' swirls were more visible.)

I agree that her coloring doesn't match the concept art very well. When the first pictures of the toys came out I was confused as to why Aurora was pink/magenta when I've always seen her as being purple in the artwork. I still like her though! :lol:

Aurora because she coordinates with the box colors so well and she's so bright and perfect pose.

Now I've seen them all, I'm sticking with Milky Way. I love her colouring. I also think she looks pretty in the box with the gold, although I had to take mine out to get her home (lol). Aurora is also very pretty but my sister claimed first say on her, and she reminds me a lot of a cross between Melody and Sweet Blossom anyway.

I also now know which is which without having to hit up google (lol).

If Nova had been in the Posey pose then she would probably be my fav.   I think right now Polaris is my fav.  Her sort of greyish body colour is unique.

Milky Way!  Which surprises me because after years and years of G3 and G4 Pinkie Pie, I felt totally done with all-pink ponies.  But something about her is just captivating. I love them all, though!

Aurora is my favorite. She's so vibrant and I love her symbols with the planet and it's moons. She also reminds me a lot about Melody from the Tales set.

Aurora. The colors are really fresh and I love the symbol. Polaris comes as a close second. The colors are calming, and the symbol is cute.

Still Polaris, but narrowly...
All are lovely in their own way. The only reason Milky Way is last is her repeat name. I like Nebula for her instead...

Absolutely Polaris. Milky Way is a close second.

I feel like I should like Nova since all of her features are things I usually love in ponies (she's blue, she's in the Tootsie pose, she has a cloud symbol), but for some reason she just seems... empty? I like the version with pink stripes much better, it really makes her pop more. But since she'd be hard to come by for me in that version (they don't sell these ponies here, so I'm stuck with ordering online) I'm going to have to pass.

Aurora just screams NO to me, despite being in one of my favourite poses. I hate her colour scheme. I really don't understand how she made it to number one in the poll. :P

In the artwork I like Nova, but I don't think what they produced does her justice. In the ponies they actually made Polaris is my favourite.
