Pony question of the day:

What's the best MLP toy concepts of all time?

My personal opinion would be that the classic Pony itself is rather genius. Its simple enough that kids of any age can  play with it, but it doesn't have any kind of technology so you can use your imagination and play with it however you like.

I also liked the G4 concept, but they kinda threw that one down the drain when they started to only release the mane 6 ponies, they were also kind of small.

What is the best MLP toy concept in your opinion and why?

Twinkle Eyes. They're so beautiful!

[Leave a Whisper]

Twinkle Eyes are perfection.

Rainbow ponies-Simple but lovely

So-softs-They feel so very nice.

Dazzle Brights -Super vibrant

Water Cuties-Gimmicky but very pretty and unique among the MLP line. There's nothing quite like em.

Sunshine/Sundazzle-I love color changing hair!

Holiday Ponies-Awesome-sauce!

I really liked the pony wear myself, so fun to dress them up.

Unicorns!!!

^^ This!!! 
I have a soft spot for white G1 unicorns, hence having Gusty, Majesty etc in my herd 

Yes, I believe the original G1 concept was perfection - small enough to take with you to play, large enough to handle and brush, put clothes on, the pretty features... but then I am biased hehe #growingUpInThe80s 

[Broken Irishwoman]

I agree with G1 ponies in general! Also school themed ponies. Even though I hated school, I loved school themed ponies very much because of course school is a big part of your world as a child.

Glow n Shows
Sparkle Ponies

[Al-1701]

I agree that the G1 ponies is the best concept overall.  Though, the So Softs and Twinkle Eyes really have a soft spot for me.  I also like the U.K. version of the first Princess pony set with the baby dragon attendants.

G3 dazzle brights - the entire Butterfly Island line, tbh. So bright and vibrant and pretty!

Deluxe wings of any gen - flutters, wingers, charm wings, glimmer wings, G3 and 4 deluxe wings, anything else I might have missed. Even if the wings are prone to breakage, they're so pretty.

Rainbows of any gen - rainbow ponies, Rainbow Power, etc.

G1 spinning tails - there's something oddly satisfying about a toy horse with a tail that spins.

Extra symbols/designs of any gen - taf, cmm, friendship blossoms, cutie cascade, pretty patterns, rainbow curl, etc. Never enough cutie pox!

G3 gradients - so pretty! We need more!

Holiday/seasonal - <3

G1 princesses - the 1st and 2nd set. Even though only the 1st set received gem names, and only in their UK releases, they still remind me of gem ponies. That combined with the tinsel, symbols and status as princesses just really works for me for some reason.

G2 and 3 in general - the middle gens need more love!

[Miniature Sheep]

For me it's definitely the merry-go-round ponies, I love their flamboyant designs and the 3D symbols make them feel like something a bit special and fancy. I also really like the G3 Butterfly Island ponies - the vibrant matte colours look gorgeous! (Also the abundance of tropical ponies is a major plus for me!)
