August Breeze is my favorite and I'd love to have her. I also like December Delight, June Blossom and May Belle. April Mist is cute, but her symbol looks like a giant eyeball. This set is pretty disappointing considering they made great tropical and holiday ponies but most of these are bland and springtime.

They are all cute, I picked Sweet September because I have a crush for white ponies with blue hair.
Anyway, I prefer regular G3 jewel pony sets to this one :brow:
-
I like the one for October as Halloween is my favorite holiday, the one for june is a close second. My birth month is just terribly boring.
-
I'm not crazy about my birth month either. Fantastical February shoulda been in different shades of purple.
-
Sweet September and January Joy are my favourites. June Blossom, my birth month, is boring...
-
My favorites are April Mist, May Belle, June Blossom (what can I say? I like yellow ponies :P), August Breeze, Sweet September, and December Delight..... I can't choose... :lol:
-
I like them all but own two January and September. I do like mine the white and the blue is pretty together.
-
Biased December baby here because I really do just adore December Delight. The palette, her pose, symbol, it’s almost like she was made for me HAHA! I also love September, May and July. Again the palettes are so lovely and the Sapphire/Ruby colored hair in S and J are pretty.
-
Is it cheating to say I love them all? :lol: I’ve always thought this set was so fun! I really love November Nights, August Breeze, October Dreams, and January Joy.
I’ve always found my birth month pretty boring, I’m an April baby and I hate that my birthstone is a diamond. It’s like, the most boring gem out there imo. The fact that you said that April Mist’s cutie mark looks like an eyeball has significantly made me like her more now, so thank you for that LaW! :P I can appreciate a spy umbrella pony!

Your welcome. Seems several so far aren't enamored with their birth month ponies. My daughter thinks July Jubilee is boring too.

June Blossom. She looks really cute.

(Apologies, a bit of "unpopular pony opinions"-cross ahead, though it seems I'm not the only one who isn't very impressed with this set)
To me these ponies are a bit of a disappointment. With the jeweled symbol they could have been so special, yet a lot of them seem plain to me in colouring, for others it's the pose that kills the thing - June Blossom, for instance, is yellow, for which I always have a soft spot, and it's my birth month too - but her pose makes her look like a scared chicuahua, not that I have an issue with chihuahuas, but this quality is not really what I am looking for in a pony. And if it's not the colours or the pose, then the symbol is just... too plain for what it could have been. Or off (can someone please explain the connection of mischief and a teacup to me? Thank you). Or weird. Like the eyeball thing that I can totally see too :lol: December Delight, for instance... I'm not too fond of the pose, but her colouring is wonderful! A shame it is ruined by the too bulky and plain bow she carries on her flank. I just find it odd, and I'd find it hard not to repaint her symbol into something more delicate if I ever came across her :huh: The randomness of the whole symbol thing totally makes this set fall apart for me, I cannot see any theme of connection here other than the gemstone and the tinsel - but there are also other G3 ponies out there with gemstones stuck on their bums :shrug:
My choices are May Belle and Sweet September, and I voted for the latter - we could only pick one, and I've already shared my love for her colouring in the recent POTD thread, and white ponies are also something I have a soft spot for. But I also think the pastel colours of May Belle combined are very beautiful, she seems carefully put together - besides her oddly simple symbol that looks like something from a children's colouring book, but it's passable and fits her baby-like overall appearance combined with the pose.

I love January Joy's vibrant colors and party theme!

You reminded me of the feelings I had the first time I saw this pony set! In fact the drawings on the symbols do not enhance the jewels, (for me) ... At this point the best symbols are those of February, September, October and November, IMHO.
(So, Sweet September is still my favourite! :biggrin:)

June blossom is my fav, i had her and regret trading her away years back. :( i do have her Jem blossom doppelganger still.

I don't mind the colors or poses for the most part, but I do feel the gems look kind of . . . not integrated . . . on a lot of their symbols. Like March Mischief has a teacup that has a giant gem on it . . . Although maybe it's supposed to be a bubble? But it doesn't really look like a bubble.
I get that they couldn't move the gems because they were using the pre-existing Jewel Pony molds. But I almost think it would have been better to have more abstract symbols, along the line of Periwinkle except instead of random swirls, make it look like the setting of a ring or something. Or just a repeated pattern around the jewel, the way Fantastical February has.
Still, there are some lovely ponies in this set. I like the July pony and Sweet September a lot.

I SHOULD say June Blossom as that is when my birthday is. But although I do like her, she is not my favourite. I way prefer December, so she got my vote. I don't have any of these ponies in my collection.
