Okay, we did the Year 2 rainbows, let's look at Year 3. :)

I also had one pony in my childhood set, Tickle. I remember thinking those were leaves on her hip, but eventually realized they were feathers. I really like the "gold leaf" effect (as in the art style, not the symbol shape). However, looking back on this set as an adult, I think I've decided she's not my favorite of the bunch.

I think I like Confetti (sorry that the picture shows a yellowed Confetti) and Trickles the most. Maybe because that's one of my favorite poses, but also the yellow and the white go well with the hair colors. I also like the shy pose Confetti. :)

How about you? ^.^

Somehow, I've never had any of this set in my collection, but I LOVE Starflower. I guess like I said in the last post, blue and space-themes are my thing ^_^. I do think her stars are a little boring since a few other ponies have the same thing, and especially compared to the more interesting designs of the rest of the set, but I like this pose a lot, and her colors looks just so interesting together. Every time I see a picture of her, I think she looks like some sort of unique nirvana.

I voted for Tickle

Trickles :)
Btw, is this set rare, because I rarely see them for sale, or anywhere?

Starflower! A blue unicorn, I can't resist! I finally found her in the wild this last spring. Such a happy day, she is breathtaking!

Starflower!  With Trickles in second place.  I don't like yellow ponies usually but she is just so pretty when she's mint and unblemished.

I also chose Starflower. I am a sucker for stars! I don't have her yet but hope to find her. The only one I have so far in my collection is Flutterbye. She is gorgeous is person, I love her orange color.

Starflower has a special meaning for me, so I picked her :)

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Leave a Whisper on August 01, 2014, 01:07:41 PM

never had any of them, but I picked trickles.  there's something special about her

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: hathorcat on August 01, 2014, 01:17:39 PM

I love all of this set! Too many decisions. I think I will go with Trickles though :)

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: reanna-mator on August 01, 2014, 01:28:05 PM

Tickle! I think she's my favorite out of both sets. So sweet in that pose, and I love the bright rainbow against her purple body.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Sora on August 01, 2014, 01:31:46 PM

I'm gonna go with Starflower. Such a beautiful blue!

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!

Ooh this is a tough one!!! Tie between Tickle and Confetti!

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Hervoyel on August 01, 2014, 01:39:09 PM

I voted Tickle - love that shade of purple!

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: MoondancerMilkyWay on August 01, 2014, 01:50:29 PM

I love tickle for her purple body and good symbol....I just don't know!

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: achab1984 on August 01, 2014, 02:06:14 PM

This is also a hard one but I picked Tickle :)

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Griffin on August 01, 2014, 02:11:41 PM

I'm on the fence, I love both Tickle and Starflower... but I had to pick one so I went with Starflower, she's a unicorn after all. ;) Her blue colour is lovely.   

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: icecreamgirl on August 01, 2014, 02:18:26 PM

I am also a fan of this set I really like them all, if I have to a choose a favourite I will go with Tickle  :)

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!

Tickle! <3 Her colours are soo purdy! :)

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Juliepants on August 01, 2014, 02:42:51 PM

I love the whole of this set, just missing confetti. Went for flutterbye but also love trickles and starflower. I just love rainbow colours!

Starflower!  :lovey:  But again, such a lovely set.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: SwiftStar84 on August 01, 2014, 02:52:55 PM

Pinwheel for me. She was given to me by a childhood friend years ago so she's got a special place for me.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: foalpatrol on August 01, 2014, 03:00:51 PM

Confetti. I have her in Bow Tie's pose.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Tap Dancer on August 01, 2014, 03:14:24 PM

I like Year 2 better, but these ponies are also pretty. :) I chose Flutterbye.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: gemini_pony on August 01, 2014, 03:19:27 PM

I really love confetti sadly I do not own her.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: brighteyes on August 01, 2014, 04:22:12 PM

Starflower with Trickles a close runner up.  I always thought she must be related to Posey somehow.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Primrose on August 01, 2014, 04:34:46 PM

Love this set, but had to go with Pinwheel.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Doedeardarling on August 01, 2014, 04:35:07 PM

Tickle is my favorite, Confetti and Starflower are very pretty as well.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!

Never had any of these ponies but picked Tickle as I love the purple :-)

Starflower is my favorite in this grouping.
Her shade of blue is so pretty with the pastel rainbow!

Tickle, because purple pegasus.  But I don't like her name :p it fits, but I don't like it. 

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: TWILIGHTCOOKIE on August 01, 2014, 08:49:10 PM

Starflower. Had her when I was a kid. Now I have a lovely Italian Starflower in my collection.   

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: kiwimlp on August 01, 2014, 09:36:44 PM

Confetti, Trickles, Starflower...  Confetti, Trickles, Starflower... Omg. I can't choose!!!!

Okay, Starflower - by a nose!  :frolic:

Confetti.  :biggrin:

Post by: Beldarna on August 02, 2014, 02:43:44 AM

Pinwheel was in one of my favorite comics and I love her for it. I also like her pose. Sadly the only one I have of this set is Confetti. The other ones are so hard to find in decent condition.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: divalei on August 02, 2014, 02:57:41 AM

Starflower but I like Posey and Confetti too.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: S.o.a.r. on August 02, 2014, 03:00:59 AM

The only one I currently own is Trickles but ever since I became an official MLP collector a few years' back, I've been in love with Pinwheel! First off, her amazing pink color matched with her rainbow colored mane/tail is reason enough to want her in my collection! Secondly, her name is adorable! :lol:

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: DazzleKitty on August 02, 2014, 06:40:55 AM

I voted for Pinwheel, but it's a VERY hard pick between her and Starflower. They are two of my absolute favorites.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Shenanigans on August 02, 2014, 07:17:53 AM

I'm sad to say I don't own ANY of these beauties! I used to have Confetti but she was so yellowed and had a hair cut so I sold her.

My favorite has to be Starflower, she's so gorgeous :)

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: spottedslug on August 02, 2014, 10:15:58 AM

Starflower and Confetti are both beautiful when they are MINT.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Pheasant on August 02, 2014, 02:32:14 PM

I love Trickles design, but I'm biased towards birds so in the end I chose Tickle. :bird: The rainbow sets have to be some of the prettiest ponies produced, in my opinion.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: brightberry on August 02, 2014, 09:39:16 PM

Trickles!  Because... I don't know. 

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: BethMcBeth on August 02, 2014, 10:45:43 PM

Confetti was one of the first ones I collected from this set so she's always special. ;)

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Henpatch on August 02, 2014, 11:28:12 PM

Tickle - cause she is PURPLE! Close second Starflower. Whole set is lovely!

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Bibinettepony on August 03, 2014, 04:06:24 AM

 :lovey: TICKLE!!!!!  ^.^ ^.^ because my childhood pony (my only one!!!) and she is just PERFECT!!

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: ringwraith10 on August 03, 2014, 10:07:38 AM

Mmmmmh, hard to decide! I think I actually got all of these ponies at the same time, so I don't have any special fondness for a specific one.

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Mermaid on August 03, 2014, 11:40:42 AM

Ugh!!! Again! Another super hard one! I picked confetti since she's was a favorite from my childhood. But the two unicorns are two of my favorites, and trickles has been a grail of mine ever since 87 haha!

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Mirnyj on August 03, 2014, 11:42:28 AM

Flutterbye! Childhood pony easily makes it into the top three of my all time favorite ponies! :woot:

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: Vintergatan on August 03, 2014, 06:08:38 PM

Tickle!! I adore everything about her! her symbol, her pose and body colour and her coral stripe :lovey:

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!

Trickles  :happy:, my first pony however she wasn't new I got a second hand a manky  baity one since when I was under 10  my parents couldn't afford to buy me a brand new genuine MLP  :cloud:

Flutterbye ^^

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: ponyqueen on August 04, 2014, 03:25:46 AM

I coveted tickle and flutterbye for the longest time, but i think i like flutterbye a teensy bit more. there's just something about that orange!

I had a hard time picking just one!! All of the ponies in this set are beautiful! I ended up choosing Starflower because I'm a sucker for blue celestial ponies :D

I love me some Flutterbye!

Post by: Ringlets on August 05, 2014, 03:31:32 AM

Confetti for sure :lovey:  (although mine is actually shy pose UK weddingbells confetti ) since she was a childhood pony  from my and my best friends joint herd and since we were kids she has always  been Ringlets mom in our games, stories  and picfics...so yeah..one of my all time fave ponies :heart:

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: VanillaBean on August 05, 2014, 03:04:37 PM

Tickle, hands down. She's in my favourite pose & her purple body contrasts beautifully with her hair.
Now I remember how much I want her.  :lol:

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!

I picked Star Flower. The pony is just gorgeous. I like all the ponies though. And will own them all. Eventually.  :biggrin:

Starflower!! By a huge landslide!!

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: DalaPony on August 10, 2014, 02:01:37 PM

Confetti!  I just think she's so pretty!

Title: Re: On the other side of the rainbow!
Post by: rtattles on August 11, 2014, 06:12:42 AM

I love Starflower, Tickle and Flutterbye, but I voted Flutterbye because not only does she have such a beautiful colour, she is also my fav character in the UK comics and storybooks.

Tickle - simply love the colours

Starflower - I always wondered who she was when I watched Escape from Katrina and have been wanting the pony ever since then. I also have a soft spot for blue ponies.
