Do you have a version of her? What do you think of her? Share some more pics!
I have a few of her, your standard FF, concave, plus a Mexican. Plush, and a purse for merchandise...

I have her FF, CF, and Italian. My FF is in very bad condition though, her hair is matted and faded, she's discolored to brown on one side, and she is very sticky and still has remnants of rust - I hope I can work on her soon.

I have a handful of her. All Italians. There's also that strange variant I don't know who she really is. I have 3 or 4 of her, they have stamped eyes, CF and are white-ish/ very pastel mint green-ish color. Are they normal Italian Cotton Candy that have gotten badly discolored over time ? I heard of that, but their discoloration is totally even throughout their whole body, that's weird. '-'

Baby Cotton Candy, nothing odd about her, but unfortunately, her mane faded. 3: Also, her pose reminded me of that silly baby goat picture. :lol: visitors can't see pics , please register or login

Never liked her as a kid but now I think of her as iconicallyG1 I do want one. Also, kid me thought she smelled great even though she's not scented.

If Twilight the unicorn is my chosen army pony, Cotton Candy is the pony that seems to multiply when I’m not looking. :lol: I have a FF, my childhood Cotton Candy, a RAOPK gift Cotton Candy, the 35th anniversary release and Baby Cotton Candy. :) I love all my Cotton Candy ponies.

I'll pass. I'm not crazy about this set and she is impo the most boring. Pink on pink is not my thing. Now G3 CC on the other hand is pretty darn cute!

I had her and her baby a few years ago before I sold my collection. They were always amongst my favourite ponies, collectors pose suits her colour scheme so well - so cute and innocent! The baby looks a little bit more playful which is also super cute. I'm not planning on getting her again tho, ad I'm trying to avoid ponies outside the series I collect. But maybe I'll want to get the CP ponies series again someday :lol:

I love the Macaus – their plastic is a little smoother and shinier than the HK made ponies. Also I love the length of their hair – it is so much better than the standard length of the collector ponies. I must say I am not so fond of Cotton Candys colour in the macau version – she is more peach than pink isn't she? :lovey:

Oooh, how appropriate - my 25th Anniversary CC arrived today! :D
Let's see.. I have original CC (Concave foot ver), both repros, baby, Dollymix, and the Hallmark ornament! (And G3 Cotton Candy) I love her :> Definitely my favourite out of the Collector ponies.
(As an aside, I think 25th Anniversary CC is the only flatfoot I have...)
(note to self, take photos of the new girl later!)

I have the og FF, baby Cotton Candy signed by the designer who made her mold, Susanne Riette-Keith, at the Fair, I have the 35th anniversary re-release in the Canadian packaging (which I mostly bought because I was so surprised to see it on the shelf at a neighborhood toy store in Brooklyn), and I have the Cotton Candy UK pajama case, one of my favorite things in my collection! ...sooo not an army per se...but I wouldn't mind adding pearlized baby Cotton Candy to my little herd...

I have the darker pink regular Cotton Candy.
I didn't set out to get her - she arrived in a lot, washed-up very pretty and I like her much much more than I thought I would.

Good old Cotton Candy! I have the regular version. My favourite incarnation of Cotton Candy is my Greek Baby Cotton Candy, whom I call Rozalyn (that was grown-up CC's name in Greece): http://imgur.com/a/Mg4l3jw - just look at that flippin' adorable little face! :lovey:

I do have more than one version, but I don't consider it an army. My very first pony ever was Cotton Candy (Italy) :) I also have the regular verison, the darker version and Italy version with dark pink hair.
@ RoseNoire: It is common that Italy Cotton Candy fade to practically white :( The same goes for Firefly.

Her image was used so much in the 80s, I think of her as the face of old school ponies. Love her.

This is one of my sister's army ponies. I know she has at least one Italian, a bunch of CF and FF HK ones, the retro one, the peach and white Macau one "Candy"...
I have the regular ones and an Italian or two. I don't have a retro one though I have considered it. Though she sells out quickly where I am xD. It's usually CC and Blossom, the two best known CPs in the UK, that sell out quickest here...
I have a greek baby, peruvian baby and the regular baby, also pearly baby and I think maybe an Argentinian one in the walking pose with a tooth. But Baby CC is a different pony, so I guess they don't count?

I probably have some of her but not as much as pinkie pie. I do like her even if she was my first pony. I still like all her versions.

Yup. Plenty of her, two babies I believe, a stuffy, CC on puzzles and merch. I should customize a repro CC to look like the G3.

Ah, yes. I’ve found so many Cotton Candys in my time. And not ONE of them is FF! She and Blue Belle are the only two I’m missing of the true blue first six ponies AKA FFs...sniff.
I remember one time, my mother was checking out some place’s city-wide garage sale and found the plush Hasbro Softies version of her in a “free” box. This was just a couple of years ago. That doesn’t happen to you every day!

Cotton Candy is special. She is one of the (very) few ponies I have found in the wild, so I have two HK ponies - the one I already had and the one I found. Funnily enough I did not have her as a kid. I also have an Italian girl and a bait HK girl waiting to be turned into 'Candy Blossom' which is how one seller on our local site labelled a Cotton Candy they were selling. I was quite tickled by that idea, so waited ages to find a bait girl. For some reason CC seems to age really well over here.
I have her baby too: one with gorgeous pink hair and one with faded white. They have differently textured and coloured plastics and I really wonder if they don't come from different batches... my friend's baby CC also has faded white hair and is identical to my faded one. The small things in life that I find interesting...
