What is your favourite Gen of ponies to collect?

What's your fave gen to collect, and why not pop a comment below telling us why you prefer that Gen to others? My favourite Gen is G1 I just love everything about them, especially their sweetly painted faces and poses, and I think a respect for their age as well makes them more precious to me ^_^

G1 for me!  When I run out of "normal" ponies to collect, there's always variants and merch.  I love the thrill of the hunt - it's so much more satisfying to stalk ebay and the boards and private sales and the flea market for things I want than it is to go to Walmart and buy it off the shelf.

I love G1 and G3 pretty equally, but I voted for G1. They're the toys I grew up playing with. However, G3 is pretty awesome. I actually own more of those ponies now.

G1 for me , even if I have to admit I love the G4 Pegasus and unicorns as well as the FS .

Voted G3. Their designs are overall the most beautiful to me and they have such a HUGE variety! They're a cute size as well, especially the babies! My only gripe is the huge lack of unicorns, pegasus and boy ponies  It would be the perfect gen if they had a few more of those thrown in!

I choose G1, but I love G2 almost as much. I grew up with these two generations and I also think they have the best designs and color combos.

I grew up with G1, I will grow old with G1. 

They make me happy and bring back lots of great memories.

G1 because it's what I grew up with. Old school all the way. Though I did collect G3s when they where new. G2 hit when I was in high school, so I ignored them. Not on purpose. If I ever ran out of the other gens to collect, I'd start in on them.

G1! I grew up with them and they were my favorite toys. Brings back a lot of good memories and I love the size, look, and diversity of G1

G3 comes very close though. So many beautiful and cute ponies and they were what got me back into collecting I only wish there were more unicorns in G3

I picked G4.

Their small size comes at an advantage, as I don't have a lot of space on my desk. Another advantage is that because they are currently being released, I can keep up with what is coming out fairly easily (out of all the ponies out right now, I am only missing 12 out of 60 including what is yet to be released.)

I love collecting G1 and G2 equally but G2 is funnier because they are harder to find.  I like a challenge

G4. I like being able to buy the toys new, from a physical store, and it is fun to watch for news of new stuff, taobao findings, etc. I also like that they are small and I like their aesthetic.

I collect in phases.  Right now I'm primarily on a G1 kick and am having fun hunting down who's left on my list.  I used to be a pretty hardcore G3 collector, but I quit collecting as the Core 7 came out and I'm still trying to get my checklist reorganized so I know who all I need to actually finish the G3s (that, and that most of the G3s remaining on my list are not common...).  My goal right now is to stay on top of new G4 releases and super good deals on who I missed before I started collecting them, but I'm not really concentrating too hard on them at this time.  G2s always excite me when I find good deals on them, but I haven't actively hunted any of them before.

G1 - I grew up with them so to me they are what MLP is all about.  I have collected the others at various stages and have ended up selling most apart from my G3 collector ponies they just aren't the same for me or have the same charm.
