It took me almost 30 years of collecting to get a Peachy. Everyone complained about how common she was, so I never sought her out and figured I would stumble across one in the wild sooner or later.... It took a lot more time than I was expecting! XD

It took me at least a couple decades to find concave-feet Cotton Candy in good shape. And I still don't have a Moondancer that isn't basically bait.

For me, Lickety-Split and Hearthrob. They're pretty common but I only saw Lickety-Split once before in eBay Australia and never Hearthrob. 1 MOC Sweet Stuff, no loose ones and no Gingerbeads. Also never seen a NBBE Baby Tiddly Winks (Although she may be considered uncommon) but never got a Sparkle pony or a pocket pony (most common pony found on AUS eBay) I don't have any interest in them.

I hear about how common Pony Bride is (I know someone in a Discord server who recently ended up with a seventh one), yet I somehow don't have her yet. There's also a fair amount of more common early G1s I don't have yet.

I’ve got too many Peaches (one is re haired and ready to be sold even though she’s been for sale for a long time).

The one TE pony that was my grail pony took me a long time to get but I have Tic Tac Toe now.

But ones that I do want and still haven’t found for the right money are Daddy Apple Delight, Daddy Bright Bouquet, and Daddy Sweet Celebrations who’s my grail Daddy Pony.

A mother pony can be protective of her young just like dogs.

I have a Peachy army, too, but no regular Minty (am actually actively looking for her with a Wanted thread here on the Arena!). I've also yet to see Medley and Firefly (with glitter symbols).
Specifically looking for G1 with pen markings similar to this (my initials - W.S.):

I have them, but any unicorn or pegasus from y2-3 counts for me here at least when I was searching in the wild. Of the combined members of both sets, I have found one tailless Glory here and one tailless Moondancer, and they're clearly escapees from a long way away. I've never found Medley, Twilight, etc. I did find Italian Surprise and Italian Heart Throb but never the regular ones. Never a Powder. Never a Skyflier. Never a Firefly either.

I do have them but only because they were super priorities for me in my first international trade and so we filled those gaps (and the 2nd set rainbows) then. But technically speaking all the talk about them being common...? Not in my area.

Regular eyed Baby Tiddly Winks I would call super common, so she definitely counts.

Before I knew about UK releases I was very puzzled that I couldn't seem to find ponies such as Moondancer, Glory, Firefly and Heartthrob. I eventually had to buy them from abroad (Italy or the US usually). We have found two unicorn Twilights in the wild though.

G1 Minty has been really difficult to find! I found a Mexican one online way before I ever found an ordinary one. Then I found flat foot Minty here in the UK. But concave foot Minty continued to elude me until she came in a bundle from America.

I have only ever once found a CF Minty here also. I am still highly suspicious about whether she was sold here...I've not yet found a paper trail to prove either way, since we definitely had the FF...

I’ve never been able to find a decent Sundance! Also, Bowtie took me forever to find without cancer. Then of course there are some common ones that just don’t appeal to me, like Cherries Jubilee, Tootsie and some others.

There are lots of common ponies left on my wishlist, but the one that I'm itching to check off the most is Galaxy! I haven't found a nice one yet without regrind or haircuts or serious rubs.

This, of course, is relative. In my country didn't make the first sets of ponies until 1984+ year and skipped half or most of the sets. So these ponies aren't common for me. However, I get tired of seeing piggies and Spanish TEs and I rarely can find a Spanish Starflower and those are sold way more than the supposedly commons. Ironic  :rolleyes:

But the commons that usually pops and I don't have yet are: (again) Starflower, Confetti, Parasol, Peachy, and Moonstone. And international ones: all the CPs and first set of pegasus & unicorns.

Lemondrop! I've always put off getting her--I'm sure it's due to her pose and how many I see that aren't in nice enough condition for me. I still don't have her. It took me ages to get Applejack, but once I got her I was thrilled and wondered why I'd waited so long to get her.

I would love fizzy, galaxy and snuzzle but have yet to see ANY in the wild, bait or otherwise. :c

Maybe get a Chinese one? They have more vivid colours and generally nicer hair than some of the HK ones do :)
