There is one thing that bugs me about Hasbro in the G1 line: Why did they release different ponies with the same name? Take Bright Eyes as a random example. Could they not have thought up a new name for the new pony? I mean, really? Grrrr.
I don't like the 2nd set of Princess ponies. The tinsel topknot is weird and their symbols are just random geometric shapes instead recognizable objects.

The stuff takes about two seconds to crinkle irreversibly and then it just sticks out every which way and makes the doll look unkempt no matter how meticulous you are and argh. It makes me *frumple*.
You guys inspired me to look up the 2nd set of princess ponies and you're right, one has a shield symbol and one has a tulip. Sunbeam has a circle, but I guess that could count as a very abstract representation of the sun? So as a group, I don't mind them as much as I first thought. I still am not fond of Pristina's parallelogram or Taffeta and Misty's ovals though, lol.
I think some of the UK names for the Big Brothers are better. I used to call my Salty Tugboat, because I didn't understand and thought it was stupid. Still do actually. Imagine my surprise when I found out here his UK name is Tug. Tracks and Trucker make more sense.
I don't know if Chief, Tex, Wigwam and Barnacle have different names over there?
Slugger's name suits him best. First Base I get, but it also has uh... different connotations.
Step away from the crystal ball.

It personally irritates me that people swap genders. I would never argue with them over it, because they're not my toys and that's just rude, but it bugs me all the same.

That was an American cassette. It confused me because I am sure Moondancer is 'she' on the backcard...
