Title: POTD 3/24/2020 SS Twist
Post by: mlp4me on March 24, 2020, 10:39:06 AM
Happy Tuesday! This week we'll be featuring so soft ponies... Twist is the featured pony today. Only catch-- you provide the supporting pics! Would love to see her flocked and deflocked.

Do you have her, what are your thoughts? Share some pics!


I have her and she's quite sad... I need to upgrade. So many of my SS are rough shape.

One of my favourite SS ponies.

And this one, though sadly it's a little yellow in the bubble now...It looks worse in that photo because of the flash mind you.

The first one I ever got actually went to my sister, because when we began re-collecting we were both kids/teens and didn't have a lot of money...so we went through all the ponies we didn't have and created a list each, splitting most sets between us. With the SS ponies we took turns to pick and Naynie picked Twist, so she got Twist.

But I really liked her so when a nice one came in a lot I kept her ;)

I am not sure which one is photographed above - Naynie's or mine - as they are both in good shape.

I have the Brazilian earth pony Twist as well but right now I can't find a photo of her *grumble grumble*

Edit - I spoke too soon, here she is (not a great picture but anyway);

I love her deflocked, such a bold body color.

I had her, deflocked her myself, the looked amazing, and then a friend's daughter who is very gentle with her toys all but begged me for her because she loved her so much.  I can get a Twist and deflock her again some day, maybe not at the price I paid for the first one, but you can't get back being an 7 year old and having ponies be your absolute world.  She still has her years later, still in the condition she was received, I may have created a collector.

Pass. I don't like her at all, not even deflocked. Ugly colour scheme, not my favourite pose, and I hate pretzels. Well, the tiny, hard ones anyway. I've never had any other kinds. :P

I love pretzels and want her deflocked. If i have one with good flocking I won't deflock her but she looks almost grey with flocking.

I couldn't believe the colour underneath when I de-flocked the gross one I got in a lot;

Purple is my favourite colour, and I love pretzels, both hard and soft :)

I will admit I can see why her colour scheme is a bit off putting for some.

I guess I'll pass. It's not like I'd leave her behind if I found her at a thrift shop, but I wouldn't actively seek her out. And even if I came across her, I'd most likely trade her for a baity-haired one and rehair her (and repaint her symbol, because I cannot really understand the logic behind that either), because while her body colour is dark and unique, and I love purple, that paired with her hair colour is just... no. No-no.
She seems a little randomly put together, reminding me of the "new fresh colour gen.1 Furbies" which were actually randomly assembled from leftover parts the factory had, resulting in weird, non-coordinating colour combinations.

I have her, but would love another to deflock.

I'm not wild about her overall, although I do like her bright body color under all that flocking.  I prefer her deflocked look for sure.

She's my first and only So Soft. I'll probably eventually rehome her.

Twist is part of my childhood herd. She's been loved very well, but I'll never upgrade or get rid of her.

Have, but seriously need to get round to updating my photos (as in actually taking them myself)

I do love the vivid purple beneath her flocking

I do have her, she came with Taffy. Also in sad shape and will be deflocked. Another pony that I wanted for ages. I saw one on Facebook that had been rehaired in yellow, which looked amazing

I'll pass - I don't like flocking, and deflocked, her colors are too much for me. She is very pretty though.

she is up there with my favs of all time. I like her neat purple/red combo. I also love pretzel ponies. :)

I have her.! She came in a big lot of ponies.  I rather like her with her flocking.  It gives her a silvery glow.

Mine has lipstick, so I don't think deflocking is really an option any way.

Can't decide if I love or hate her color scheme. I tend to love ponies with bright hair, but is it too much with the intense purple? I'm leaning towards liking it, but I still voted pass, mostly because SS's aren't my cup of tea. I would have voted 'have to think on it' if that had been an option.

I'll have to think about this one, too. I'll pass on the SS, but deflocked... hmm, I don't know. I can never decide if I like her or not. I like how unique her colours are, just not sure if they're really my thing...

Have her, like her. Usually not a fan of purple and red together, but Twist manages to pull it off.
