Title: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: hathorcat on January 02, 2013, 07:32:27 AM
We always talk about that last illusive pony or ponies we need to complete a set - the pony or ponies that we stalk sale posts and ebay for and seem to become harder to find just because we are looking for them.

So I wondered if you had the chance to pick any set from one of the 12 listed above to own complete - be that complete with all their accessories or just complete in minty condition - which one would it be?

I know I have only listed 12 types of set above as these seem to be the ones most talked about but feel free to post if there is another set which drives you crazy and you would love to own completed.

Its going to be interesting to see which set is most sought after :)

Also by "Princess" the set would include all the Princess ponies - both release 1 and release 2 - and the same for the other sets mentioned.

Rainbow (second set) I don't have any yet!,  trying to complete Wingers set, twice as fancy (first set) and big brothers

I'm really not a completist collector, having said that, I voted for Rainbow Ponies. Especially the 1st set really epitomize My Little Pony IMO, and I'd love love love to have them all completely mint!

The other set I feel any desire to complete is the Sweetie Babies, with their awesome candy barrettes!

I can't decide between TAF and Summer Wings!  Gahhh those babies, vs. getting pretty wingers...

Oh man, this is a tough one. I love TAFs and I recently discovered the joys that are Wingers. :wonder: I'll go for wingers! I got that 25 cent Little Flitter at the Salvation Army and now I want more. Not that I expect to find more two-bit wingers at the thrift store, or anything. :P

I'm also starting to getting sucked into butterfly things.

Big Brothers. I already have most, but some of them need upgrading. And this is one set where I would like to get all their accessories, and I don't have any of those yet. So yes, I would love to complete my big Brother collection, accessories included.

My choice isn't on there. My goal is Merry Go Round ponies.

Post by: Ivy on January 02, 2013, 08:17:56 AM
sad the only choice on there is the Adult Sea ponies - completed all of the other sets..

I would like to complete My big brother set and the family ponys like Apple Delight family ^^

Post by: SkyCakes on January 02, 2013, 08:33:30 AM
I went with the newborn baby ponies. They are so cute. I just need the hardest ones of all sandcastle and shovels. I have other sets to complete. I even have to get one of the summer wings from the second set yet. I keep telling myself one day. :/

Working on completing the Big Brothers set as well as the Baby Ponies and Baby Pony Pals.
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: rtattles on January 02, 2013, 09:15:54 AM
Haha this is pretty easy for me since my newborns and TEs are already complete. I would love to complete the TAFs and Princess at some stage, but right now given the opportunity, I'm going for the Wingers first!
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: TeddyAndTex on January 02, 2013, 09:25:01 AM
I think I would like to complete either the Big Brother set or the adult Sea pony set since they're the G1's I'm most interested in. Don't plan on doing it anytime soon though  :lol:
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: Bow Tie on January 02, 2013, 09:37:35 AM
I want to at least complete both the Rainbow set and the Twinkle Eye set, but I chose the Twinkle Eye set because I want to complete it a little more than the Rainbow set. They're both gorgeous sets and two of my favorites! <3
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: Eviecorn on January 02, 2013, 09:37:58 AM
Twinkle Eyes are my current obsession.
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: Dusky on January 02, 2013, 09:41:35 AM
I put Rainbow, because I think they're so gorgeous. Some day maybe I'll get them all, but for now I'll stick to the ones from the first set that I've found.
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: Bow Tie on January 02, 2013, 09:49:00 AM
Twinkle Eyes are my current obsession.

They are so gorgeous! I'm currently waiting for a Gingerbread, who is probably my favorite of the line! If she were a unicorn, she would be the most perfect pony ever! <3 I don't think I'll ever get a Mimic, but if I can get the rest, I would be very happy. :)
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: Galactica on January 02, 2013, 09:58:28 AM
It would be fun to have all of the big brothers or the flutters, but there are so MANY MLPs that I actively have tried not to finish any sets (cept Rainbow)- since I would totally run out of room.
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: Sunshine on January 02, 2013, 10:39:24 AM
Adult Sea Pony... they are my grail.

Now that I work with fish for a living, I realized that the Sea Ponies are basically... the MLP fish. So now I'm obsessed with them.
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: lovesbabysquirmy on January 02, 2013, 10:45:30 AM
Yes, it was hard for me to answer this poll as well, since there are a number of sets I'm only one or two ponies off from finishing! 
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: brightberry on January 02, 2013, 10:54:09 AM
I'm not much of a set collector myself but having all the rainbow ponies would be lovely!
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: InkyMilk on January 02, 2013, 11:05:24 AM
I was pretty tempted to choose Twinkle Eye since I LOVE TE ponies, but more realistically I know I'd probably collect the Newborn Twins first since I almost primarily collect G1 babies. I think someday I'd like to get customs made of the TE ponies as babies, that way I can have the best of both worlds!
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: Glacia471 on January 02, 2013, 11:16:24 AM
I already completed all of those :drunk: Unless you count accessories, then I have a ways to go still. I put sea ponies just because that was the set I most wanted to complete, and out of all of those, I still want some of their accessories pretty bad (well, their stickers anyway, I have all of their shells) ;)
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: josiekat on January 02, 2013, 11:25:32 AM
That was hard since there were about 4 sets on there where I am only missing one. In the end though, I would want to complete my TAF's first.
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: RedSH on January 02, 2013, 11:57:55 AM
My choice isn't on there. My goal is Merry Go Round ponies.

Same.
I'm not really a set completer as such but I only need Diamond Dreams to complete the MGR set.

I also only need Ringlets to complete the BnG set.
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: partypony566 on January 02, 2013, 12:11:02 PM
Definitely flutters :lovey:
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: StarDragon on January 02, 2013, 12:23:50 PM
I really want a complete Big Brother set, but the accessories are making everything go so slowly that i am concentrating more on other sets like TAF (love all of these guys!) and of course the Twinkle Eyes

But I also love the flutters and am working on them slowly as well because I am looking for original wings.

For me it is hard not to be a set-completer collector because they are all so gorgeous I want them all, lol! :P
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: Mirnyj on January 02, 2013, 12:43:18 PM
Big brother ponies, definitely. They have been my favourites since I saw them in the cartoon when I was little.  :P
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?

Twinkle eye ponies! I just love them :heart: I want them all!

I also only need Ringlets to complete the BnG set.

That would be my choice too. I have three Merry-go-rounds and three more to go! My Second most wanted set is TAF ponies.

Post by: Prince Primbrose on January 02, 2013, 02:05:10 PM
That's a tough one... I clicked Princess ponies, because I'm actively seeking them out right now, but then there are rainbow ponies too, Big Brothers, TAF... Gotta catch 'em all.
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: UnicornTamer on January 02, 2013, 02:12:49 PM
Twinkle Eye . . . or Big Brother. Not that I have even one from either. Those are just the sets I'd like to have all of them from.
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: Sugar on January 02, 2013, 02:54:30 PM
Tough call!

I put down Summer & Windy Wings.  Eventually it'll happen, it's just a matter of time. ^.^

I love the TAFs and TEs too, but with Munchy, Yum Yum, and Mimic in the mix... might take a while longer!

Too bad the sea ponies are so outta sight... wish I still had mine from childhood. *le sigh*
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: NoPonySpecial on January 02, 2013, 02:56:55 PM
I don't feel a need to complete any sets. I just collect the ponies I like best. I picked Big Brothers, though. I don't HAVE to complete that set, but it's always good to have extra men around.   ;)
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: PurpleCheeseStick on January 02, 2013, 02:59:05 PM
I loooove the rainbow ponies, I think each and every one is pretty so I hope to have that whole set some day. The others I don't love enough to complete XD
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: LeighAnnApanites on January 02, 2013, 03:14:04 PM
I suppose it's not necessarily a set, but I really want to get all the first year ponies. Second choice would be all the sparkle ponies. I don't know why I like them so much, but I do!
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: invaderhorizongreen on January 02, 2013, 03:16:43 PM
For me it has to be the pony friends I have the first set but not the second one yet.
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: Shenanigans on January 02, 2013, 03:21:47 PM
It's a tough choice between Sea Ponies, Wingers, and Flutters! I only need Hollywood for my Flutters and I'm really in to Wingers right now, but I had to pick adult Sea Ponies because I'm obsessed with them and their shells right now :dribble: I only have one adult and no shells so I have a long way to go :lol:
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: xeevee on January 02, 2013, 04:53:04 PM
I've already completed twinkle eyes and big brothers.  So of what is left probably flutters
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: Sea_Breeze on January 02, 2013, 05:11:09 PM
So Softs for me, they need to be in pretty good condition, then maybe wingers
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: scarletjul on January 02, 2013, 05:51:35 PM
I voted for newborn twins (I'm one away from completing them) but re-reading the original post, I think I'd actually vote princess and all of their accessories, of course.  :)
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: Tropical_Sunset on January 02, 2013, 09:25:06 PM
The flutter ponies!  I think I'm only missing two:  Wingsong and Cloud Puff.  I can't find either one in decent condition. 
I think TAF ponies would be a runner up!  They're so pretty. <3
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: Lady Starflower on January 02, 2013, 09:37:59 PM
Definitely Big Brothers with hats and bandanas!! I'm getting closer! It's hard to justify spending that much money on a small piece of cloth though hahaha
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?

Big brother set. I don't even have one but would love them!

I have a lot of sets completed already but I'm still missing a couple of TE's so they got my vote :)

I picked TE even though I also want to complete pufume puff, I only have daisy sweet and red roses.  ^.^

Post by: windsong on January 03, 2013, 04:41:49 AM
I actually would like to finish the Sweetheart Sister sets. I think I pretty much have at least one in each that I'm missing. :P I voted Big Brother though--because I sure do want all of those too!!!

I chose Princesses. I am OBSESSED. I have the first set mostly complete (dragons, bushwoolies, UK accs, just need some US accs) and working on the second. I just love the tinsel (I'm nuts like that) and the shiny and sparkly hats, wands and picks!

I've recently rediscovered my love for the wingers. I have really happy memories of owning one and being endlessly fascinated by the wings. Sadly, my childhood herd has yet to emerge so they may be lost to me. But I only owned the one so I've been buying some of the rest. I'd love to own all of them. Although, poor Flurry needs a rehair and I have no idea how to accomplish that.

Hmmm I have about 50 something sets completed but I need one last set of twins...and i don't really get into the brothers much. (yeah I know, don't hate me)
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?

Considering the choices I'm given, I would pick the Rainbow ponies ! :D

I picked Flutter ponies. But the first tooth babies drive me nuts. >_<
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: Eluluu on January 04, 2013, 08:50:39 AM
it was a rough call, but i went with adult sea ponies, if only cause i only really need like 3 more TEs to finish that set.
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: NinaMarie on January 04, 2013, 11:02:51 AM
Hmm no Sweetheart Sisters... I picked Twinkle Eye mostly because my "grail" i guess is Tic Tac Toe she was a much beloved childhood pony that has gone missing and I REALLY want her! I'd prob never beable to complete them. Mimic is just so hard to get if you don't want to spend a lot of money.
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: MnDancer on January 04, 2013, 08:31:35 PM
Wow, that's a really tough question! I'm not even sure I'm satisfied with my answer! I put down the wingers, but I really want the TEs and the TAFs, and I'm so close to completing my Big Brother set! Rainbow ponies was actually my first thought, but I already have the complete 1st set, though I haven't even started on the 2nd set yet. So hard to choose!
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?

Darn you, elusive (and expensive) adult sea ponies...
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: ChipsteRJ on January 04, 2013, 10:19:52 PM
... STUPID second set of TAFs why do they have to be so HTF and costly to find mint?

Hit me up if you have:
Bonnie Bonnets (MINT w/ original curls)
Yum Yum (White w/ pink hair)
Merriweather (Bright purple- no yellowing
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: AmethystDefender on January 05, 2013, 02:22:38 PM
Hmm...toughie.  It was a toss-up between TE, TAF, and the Big Brothers and Baby Brothers (My herd needs more males)  But I went with TE's because I have a lot of them already (including Mimic), and I think I'm only missing a few.  But it's the same with the TAF's too, so...I dunno.
Title: Re: Which G1 set would you most like to complete?
Post by: DazzleKitty on January 05, 2013, 04:21:42 PM
The summer and windy wings! I only need two more to have the set finished.

So many choices. Top is Summer/windywing then sosoft, then big brother (I just need one more not incl mountain boy). I want to complete them all though

Twinkle eye, definitely :D Almost all of those are so colorful and i just love really colorful ponies.

Out of the sets that I still need to complete, I'm having a real tough time deciding which one I wanna complete first!!! :faint:   I'm torn between Princess (I need 2), so Soft (prolly the set with the most gaps in my collection I think) , wingers (need 4 WW),  and rainbow ( still need some of the second set) :awake:

My choice isn't on there. My goal is Merry Go Round ponies.
I would not mind completing that set either.  I do love the wingers though, we have a long way to go on it.

Post by: Kazzellin on January 09, 2013, 02:08:34 PM
I'd love to complete the adult sea pony sets, but given how rarely some of them come up, even without shells, I despair of being able to do so. It doesn't help that when they do come up, I typically don't have money or cannot justify spending it. ;)

Hmmm, I think that the original unicorns, pegasi and earth ponies from like... 1983? Would be a good set to complete. I've almost done it.
