Do you have her? Your thoughts? Share some more pics!
I have her, she's my second favorite of this set....
-
I have her as bait. I like her gimmick but I'm not fond of the body/hair combo.
-
I have her and I so desperately want to give her a different symbol.
-
Pass. She's my least favorite MM.
-
Have, but I don't call her Windy, probably because to me fall is not a season. I call her Magical Breeze & the season autumn. It's one of those things which makes me part of the UK rather than the States...
This is one of the reasons I love the names of Ponies like Autumn Skye & Autumn Crisp of the G3s & Autumn of the G2s.
-
I thought I didn't have her, but my list says I do. I must have forgotten because I don't like her.
-
Probably my least favorite Magic Message. Her colors just don't work well together, and she's another cursed name-snatcher.

Oh, I totally forgot! There is another Windy. How could I forget when the other Windy is from my most favorite set? I don't have this Windy, I have the Rainbow Windy
-
I like her colours well enough but her symbol looks like a child painted it on. XD
-
She's new to me and I'll pass. That sort of burnt cheese colour in her hair really does not go with pink. Also the only Windy for me is the Rainbow pony. You can't fool me, impostor pony of the doom-laden valleys of deception! XD
-
This fits right in today! Its so windy outside! I had her in the past but she was not in the best of shape!
-
And for a moment I thought my first pony was getting some attention as POTW...but it's not rainbow Windy, it's Magical Breeze :)
Never mind. I have her and I like her., She always seemed special to me because of the mail order offer she had over here. I like her colour scheme. It's kind of unique. But most of all I love her curly hair.
-
I like her, she's super cute, but I feel like something is off about her color scheme, like maybe the tree is too dark or something. Still my second fave in the set, though, and I hope to get her someday (would be awesome if her symbol still worked!).
-
I have her, very minty, and I like her colors.
I do agree, however, that she needs a better name.
-
Just coming back to say I agree with Ponybookworm as well. Fall is what happens when you trip over ;)
I also don't see her as an autumn theme pony, genuinely. I can see why she could be, our apple tree has apples on it right now - but I just don't. Maybe because I associate her more with kites, which is not very autumnal. I have this feeling she had a kite reference or thing going on in the comics. Unless I imagined it.
Think I've made my opinion known on repetitive name syndrome enough times. And I will never see her or think of her as Windy, because she's Magical Breeze. ;)
Fizzy is the ultimate autumn pony here in the UK ;) If there is pony justice, she will be POTD for Nov 5th ;)
-
Cheers Taffeta!!! Yep kites are more of a March thing for us, catching the winds of spring wi Skyflier & this girl.
Gusty for me was the representative of autumn, & she & her baby would always be involved wi the leaves. Mum Gusty would blow them into big piles & Baby Gusty would jump into them!!!
Other autumn Ponies were Applejack & other Ponies wi fruit on them.
As for Fizzy, she, along wi the two Skyrockets, was a November Pony for us.
-
Her design is such a mess that I have to have her.
-
Her body and hair combo look nice but... that symbol... I'll have to pass, unless I find one with a symbol that has already worn away

Yeah. Well, all the Sparkles probably, to some degree. But Sky Rocket most of all. My sister is a November baby, and Fizzy was her first pony, so in our house Fizzy was always the autumn pony. My sister is generally of the opinion that autumn is 'her' season xD.
Gusty is an obvious autumn pony pick, too. But I suspect we'll see at least one Gusty before the week is out ;) Gusty was also Nurse Gusty mind you, so not just about autumn.
-
I have her, but she was always "Breezy" to me because there was only One :rainbow: True :rainbow: Windy, and I hadn't learned the word "sylph" yet. :lol: She struck me as a sort of ephemeral nature spirit type pony who heralded the changing of the seasons. An easy association for me, since both spring and fall are accompanied by very strong winds in the places where I grew up. I imagine her theme was quite a bit more puzzling for kids in gentler climates. :lol: She's probably my third favourite MM, after Magic Hat and Mirror Mirror. The Magic Message ponies in general have such wild color schemes. There's rather an overabundance of green and coral shades in the set which is... a bold choice. :blink:

Her symbols still work, but I don't like to mess with them too much. I don't know what Hasbro was thinking by encouraging kids to rub them to activate the heat-sensitivity. That's way more destructive to the delicate surface than, like, hugging them to your cheek or whatever. Not sure if the tech was mouth-safe at that point, like the Sweet Kisses ponies, but still... For many kids, "rub to reveal" often devolved to increasingly hard scrubbing followed by compulsive picking.
I knew rubbing would never work for me, as I have terrible circulation in my hands, so I used the hair dryer. :P Touch-free techniques keep the symbols pretty nice though. Thank goodness Hasbro didn't make scratch-n-sniff symbols -- they would be a wreck! :lol:
-
Yep. She's not in amazing condition, but she's in my collection. :)
-
I don't have any of the Magic Message ponies. Perhaps I'll collect them at some point, but I'm not too excited about this gimmick (great idea, not so great in practice :P ) or the overall designs of these ponies. Plus I imagine they're terribly difficult to find in a good shape.
Your photos are gorgeous, though, BlushingBlue!
-
One of my grails! I really hope to get her someday, I love everything about her. :lovey:
-
I had one in the past but she had issues.
-
I have her and I adore her. She's my favorite pony in this pose in this pose and was a member of my childhood herd. As an adult collector, I knew I had to re-add her. She's 1 of only 5 ponies that's been in both my childhood and adult herds.
