Who did you unexpectedly fall for...

[heftysmurf76]

I swore I would never own Perfume puffs, but now I have 2...I don't know if I'm in love with them yet...

I also thought G1s in general were ugly at first 9I was a staunch G3 collector) now they are my fave generation.

The ones I am betting I will never love are Baby Merponies, I think they are so bizarre!

[SkyCakes]

I really don't like G2s but I do think the babies are cute. I am not looking for any of them though. I have one G2 that I and shes enough for me.

I also really didn't like the G1 BBE either. I used to give them away practicly but now I have a full set of them... I really like sleepy pie. Something about white ponies and blue hair like majesty for instance. Same with G1 petites for me  I think they are cute but they just dont rock my world. Now I got all these odd ponies like Dance N prance and drink and wet and the bushy eyebrow princesses.

When I ran across the first G3s I ever saw in stores. I thought they were odd too after discovering G1s. I have so many now I have to do a recount

For me its the Takaras. I thought they were ugliest things ever. And even passed up an opportunity to buy an adult.
Then one day My friend found a MIB pinky for me in Japan for $45 and I fell in love.
I now have 4 takaras in my collection and am just so in love. I love their outfits and all the accessories you can dress them
up in different styles. They are just tooo cute!

Rapunzel.  Growing up I always thougt she was hideous but my god when I finally got one I was smitten. 

[HollowZero]

Not specific ponies in general but, I've grown quite fond of pink ponies. I used to really dislike/avoid them but as the years have gone by I've found some of my favorite ponies are pink. Valenshy, Hidden Treasure, Heart Throb, Cotton Candy, Locket, etc etc.

[Pinkie21]

The original ponies (Cotton Candy, Butterscotch, etc).  I remember I used to feel a bit "meh" about them since they were monochromatic.  However, I bought a Cotton Candy in a lot one day, and fell head-over-heels in love with her.  Then came Butterscotch, whom I found at a thrift store.  I used to not want her, since I'm not a huge fan of yellow.  But I swear she just popped out at me, and I HAD to pick her up! 
What are my feelings now?  Collect ALL the originals!  I actually recently realized I had started a Blossom army without even knowing it, lmao. 

[TimeDance]

For me it was Peachy. I've had her since I was a kid and she was never my favorite. Even when I went through my collection deciding which ones to keep and which ones to sell, Peachy was in my sell pile.

Then, after having her up for sale for like a day, my brain was suddenly "Nooo! Don't want to sell Peachy!" I took her off sale and looked at her again. Suddenly I loved her and her cute little color scheme for some reason. I feel dorky, but I'm keeping her. Maybe even get myself some variants in the future.

Pinkie Pie! I thought the whole pink pony that there are too many of was a little annoying at first, then I got several Pinkie Pies and couldn't stop until I got as many different ones as I could. She's just so pretty.

[Dusky]

...Beddy Bye Eyes...

I got them as bait an awful lot, used them as TE Baby customs and then decided I liked the little zombie freaks. Now I have an army.

[Salli]

g4's. Fell in love with the show, got a few, customized a few, the rest is history...

[teresat]

Mimic

I got a restored Mimic (pics coming soon) from BabyLicketySplit. She's not perfect but I've fallen hard!

[Summer-blade]

G4s when I first saw them I didn't really like them then I saw the show and said 'ok maybe just A.J.' and now 'just AJ' has become an entire cabinet full of G4s 

[Sokkis]

G2's. At first I thought that they're ugly, but when I restored few I totally fell for them! And now I loooove them.

[HavACrumpet452]

G3 Cotton Candy. Not a big fan of pink but she's so bright and striking. Her Seascape pose is the best.

[Chance]

For me it was Zecora.

I thought for sure that I didn't want her, even though I really like her character. Then I saw her at TRU, and well... how do I put it... I looked deep in her eyes and she put me in trances!

I admit she was an impulse buy, but she's gorgeous and I don't regret it. Her glow-in-the-dark feature is really cool too!
