I adore her. My two favorite colors and bird all in one pony. Got her in a local lot.

I have her. She is a childhood pony, so even though her mane colour is a bit too loud for my taste, she is still very special to me.  :blush:

She's one of my favorite Flutters, I've had two of her and they both have some sort of brown spot problem. One of my favorite birds though, so she's a have-to-keep!

I only had four flutter ponies (they were never really my favorite) and Tropical Breeze was one of them and she was by far my favorite of the flutters! I love her vivid colors...is there any other pony who has a mane and tail that color? Plus her flamingo symbol and her name is fun.

I like her for the most part but i feel like she would work better with a slightly different color scheme.  Something just seems off about this one.  But having a long-legged bird symbol on a long-legged pony seems like a good match!

Tropical Breeze is best flutter :)

Will always remember picking her out as a five year old from the wall of flutter pony boxes in Carrefour :)

Time to bring this photo out again...

Frizzy hair in the front is that childhood pony. With her original wings, but reglued.

I know many other ponies do have that red hair, but the one that springs to mind is Sparkle pony Sky Rocket...another childhood pony of mine <3

Red and blue - a popular colour scheme in this house.

Skyflier and Sugarberry immediately come to.mind.

Ah yeah. Strawberryberry for sure. xD

I think it's also the colour in Tic Tac Toe's mane.

Oh, I've been looking at the hair color charts on Ponyland Press a lot lately!  They list nine with this color, plus lots more that have a stripe of this color - including Gusty - is Gusty's stripe really the same color as Sugarberry's hair??  Anyway you can check it out here, its the first on on the list.  http://www.ponylandpress.com/haircolorchart/  Its listed as "red"...I always thought of it as something different but I'm not sure what I would call it.  :huh:

She won fave flutter Pony by a MILE!!!

Yep, I have her, I also used to have her in the old collection.
Childhood flutters were: Lily, Peach Blossom, Wing Song, Tropical Breeze & Rosedust. All were second-hoof & all had lost their wings, so I made them wings from cardboard & silver foil...

My flutters now have wings made from a Littleponyheaven pattern & 2 litre plastic bottles...

I've always referred to it as radioactive red.  If there is a neon sheen to it when it hits the light, its sugarberry red. Otherwise its a different shade.

I do not have her. I'm not sure how much I'd want her. If I got her she'd stay but I don't like that loud red with the blue. And I'm not sure how I feel about flamingos.

Mine was a rescue...she came in a bait lot and I cleaned her up. Not sure why her previous owner thought she was bait...other than being dirty, missing one hair plug in front and having frizzy hair, she really cleaned up nicely. I'll have to find her a snazzy new pair of wings, of course, but otherwise she's my favorite flutter pony!

Have her, if you’ve seen my post in customs where I show off my re haired Flutter ponies you will see her.

You know, funny story about her flamingo symbol...

As a kid I had no idea that's what her symbol was meant to be.

I thought sometimes it was some weird parachute. Sometimes it was a tent. Sometimes I thought it might be a jellyfish.

...Dream Valley taught me that it was a flamingo.

Now I see it. But for the first 10 years I had her, I had no clue.

Another fun fact - the flutters here all had little poems on their boxes and they were all printed in the fact file As a kid I loved these in the factfile so I learned them by heart. I don't remember hardly any of them now. But I do remember Tropical Breeze's because she was mine. And it seems so topical for now that I'll share it...

"Flutter Ponies bring good luck
No matter what life brings
If you need a helping hand
Tropical Breeze flutters her wings."


The world could use a lot of Tropi flutters right about now.

There's one Tropi that's not in my photo above, either. She originally came to me from Canada in a lot. She lived with me in London, came with me round Vienna and Bratislava, and spent some time in Japan, though she falls over a lot and I was afraid to lose her there. She now lives with the others, sharing her tales of travels far and wide.

Everywhere else I think flutters had proper stories. But to me the poems are cuter.

I think those poems are cute, too (I don´t know where I got them, but I added them to all my Flutter pictures on my homepage)
I like her because of her color combination ^^
the following pictures are from my homepage, they are from 2010 ^^° not the best pictures, I should update them in the future ^^

I have Cloud Puff and Wind Drifter, but not Wing Song (yet) ;) Ironically she was the one that eluded me as a child as well.
The box art is the same as we had here in the UK so I always love when they're around (except they don't have stickers. I have my childhood sticker for Tropi but not for the others). I have Lily and Rosedust in the UK boxes from the first year and they're very similar overall.

I was lucky enough to get Tropi's UK box from someone on ebay a while back and it's identical to the French ones. <3 Except obviously the language.

I recently got her from Canada. She is very lovely if not a bit vibrant.

By far my favorite flutter.  Most of them are pretty, but in kind of a meh, way.  She stands out
