Poses you wish were used more often?
« on: September 04, 2022, 01:31:32 PM »
Which pony poses with limited use do you wish more ponies were made in?

For G1 poses, I really like the sitting and rearing poses, because they're more dynamic and different than most pony poses. I understand their rare use because it limits play possibilities, but I think they're really cute, and would love a shelf full of different ponies all sitting adorably.

For G3, I really like the Valenshy pose, it's just very elegant and graceful, and would have loved to see more ponies in it. Also any of the unicorn and pegasus poses. The overabundance of earth ponies in comparison to the other species was G3's main flaw in my opinion.

Nibbles & Dibbles were the ONLY TWO Ponies in that pose, & it's so CUTE!!! I begged Clipper to do blanks of that pose, & he says he will at some point, so keep an eye out for that pose in HQG1C.

I also love the playset Baby pose (only 3 Ponies), & second more rearings, especially winged. HQG1C is doing rearing unicorns so check them out.

G2, my fave motion pose is sitting. It's such a fun one & easy enough to Customise if you get a bait one.

For G3, Dance Around & Mocha Nut were the only Ponies of that AGE. Not only should they have had a unicorn, but also more Ponies of that age. I also love the sitting Rainbow Swirl & would love more G3s who can sit.

I wish G4 had more poses, AND more Ponies!!! Let alone a wider variety of hippogriffs, some griffons, some yaks, more Boys, & more youngsters. Why were there so FEW brushables???

Definitely agree on G1 sitting and rearing pose. Rearing especially. I don't think the Powder pose was used enough on regular ponies.

I also agree with Valenshy and I'll add Crystal Lace and Seaspray.

G4 main line really needed more everything. I like the reboot ones though.

G1 = Rearing and sitting definitely, plus any poses that only got used once or twice.
G3 = Not as familiar w/ G3 poses, but agree w/ the sister molds and baby pegasus. (and why didn't we have a baby unicorn!!!)
G4 = bent leg baby pony pose, otherwise I just wish we had more variety in general XD

I love the sitting pose, the rearing pose, and Firefly's pose.  I'm guessing the sitting poses and Firefly's pose were phased out because they have difficulty wearing Ponywear, but I don't care that much about Ponywear and would've liked more, MOOOORE ponies!

The mishmash /crossover ponies. The eyes just needed to be relocated and the wings and tail put a little higher. They're quite cute otherwise. I wish they were the moulds for G5 instead.

I agree. I really like the sitting and rearing poses. They add variety and are more dynamic. After all, they showed them jumping and rearing, etc on the back cards all the time.

The Truly pose comes to mind, but the fact that it needed a stand in order to stay up is a bit of a problem for use during play. Maybe the Powder pose...Other than the weird over-use for Dance-n-Prance it didn't see a whole lot of use.  Baby Cuddles and Baby Quackers are my fave baby poses but I think those are also the ones that got used the least for normal babies?  At least in the USA?

For G3 I agree that more unicorns in particular would have been great.  I do wonder why there were so few.  Also Seaspray is my fave G3 pose and there weren't that many ponies in that pose, so yeah, I would like more in that pose.  Maybe, like the Powder pose, it isn't very "play-friendly"?  I don't know.

For G4, uh, ANY pose other than the plain, original, standing pose could have been used more imho!

G1 = rearing
G2 = Seabreeze (both head and body were used frequently of course, but not together)
G3 = Wondermint and Bath Time version of Sweetsong (there are similar ones, but I think there's something special to the Sweetsong version of the trotting pose)

I couldn't agree more about the G1 sitting and rearing poses. The sitting pose in particular has always been one of my favourites. It's just so cute, and you can take such funny pictures.

I think my favorite pose is the G1 Glory pose! It just screams classic unicorn to me!

I also wish we had seen more ponies in the Collectors Pose beyond the first set; they seem to be the only set that gets rereleased, but I wonder what they would look like with different designs and colors? (We did get the MO birthflower ponies I guess, and the alternate birthflowers!)
