Title: Pony Themes/Symbols you'd like to see!
Post by: Mrs. Prospector on July 06, 2022, 02:16:14 PM
What are some pony themes or symbols that haven't been used yet (or have been underused), that you would like to see on a pony? (of any generation)

I'm surprised that there aren't really any donut ponies, except for G4 Donut Joe who didn't get a toy (and has the typical boring G4 male color scheme)

Likewise, there aren't any true banana ponies. There's Banana Surprise in G1...who's pink and blue with an ice cream symbol. And G4 blind bags Banana Fluff...with a generic diamond symbol, and Banana Bliss...who's blue and pink. I just want a proper yellow pony with a banana symbol.

Lime is also another fruit that hasn't been represented by a pony. A key lime pie themed pony would be cute!

I'd also love a succulent pony!

A boba pony made in the G4 Water Cutie style, with little pearls floating inside, would also be a pretty cool concept.

I'd love to see ponies with more magical themed symbols, like crystal balls or wizard hats.

Outdoorsy/camping ponies, with symbols like a campfire, s'mores, pinecones, etc. would also be really cute. I thought an acorn pony would be cute, but then I learned that acorns are toxic to horses....maybe she could be a villainous character who's like, a poisons expert?

It would be nice to see occult symbols, :devious: but it would not be possible / allowed. But bones and skulls are perhaps allowed for some nefarious character!  :cool:
An owl would also be great! :heart:

Has a coffee themed pony ever been made?  :awake:

i'd like more ponies with animal symbols, especially cats. pumpkin tart's symbol is what makes her one of my favorite g3s.

and a pony with an owl symbol would be awesome! my pony character has one for her symbol.  :)

More animals! Yes to more cats. Can never have too many cats. Owl would be cool. A little fox or wolf pony, hawk or eagle, bears! not just teddy bears.

More cosmic/space stuff. I know there is a lot already but they tend to be popular so why not more?

More technology? Like a phone, computer, stereo, game console... this would make a cute Big Brother set :tellme:

Agreeing with more animal themed ponies. Never enough cat themed ponies.  :biggrin: Owls, bears, seals, whales, sharks, hummingbirds … so many possibilities.

I’d love to see more fruit themed ponies too! Mangoes, limes, more watermelon and pineapple too.

Not possible to go wrong with more space / star themed ponies. Space themed Big Brothers! Imagine darker colors or even a northern lights inspired one. Gorgeous!

I would like to see bones too. There were g4 ponies that had bones \ skulls as their cutie marks, Petunia Paleo was my favorite

The only one that I can think of that was made into a toy was this Shadow Bolt figurine
visitors can't see pics , please register or login


So maybe in the future they could make an archeologist \ halloween \ scary \ pirate pony with skull or bones as their cutie mark

As for coffee I can only think of Mochanut and Tira-mi-su and they only have cups as their cutie marks.

I also would like to see more animal themed ponies, as well as fruit\veggie themed ponies.

I feel like plant themed set would be pretty cool (plants that are not flowers that is).

I'd definitely like some coffee or tea ponies! I'd also like to see more chocolate themed ponies (preferably with a chocolatey colour scheme, yum!), more animal themed symbols and maybe some more comical themes!

What a fun thread!  And I love these ideas above.  The boba pony is such a cool idea.  I think there IS a key lime themed G3?  Wait...no...I THOUGHT she was key lime themed but she is KIWI themed! 

Some others I would like...well, a crayfish-themed pony (I really liked Gator's recent custom!), and I agree with others about plant-themed and tea/coffee-themed ponies.  And camping theme, yes!  Also...maybe a series of TAF ponies based on the four seasons?  An ocean life series with a whale, dolphin, sea turtle, sea otter...etc.  "Ponies around the world" series with symbols based on different nations.  Sports themed ponies that come with a relevant accessory like hockey stick, soccer ball, etc.  Its fun to dream!

Woodland critters! Squirrels, hedgehogs, rabbits, foxes :heart: And more tree themed ponies. I love Breezie (g3) and of course Gusty. I like the idea of pinecones too. And then of course the colors should match the woodland theme with greens, brown and orange hues.

More birds.  When I was younger, I designed a set of pegasus ponies that each had a bird symbol: Blue Jay, Robin, Blue bird, etc.  I was inspired by the flutterpony gimmick, and each of these pegasus' would have a little corresponding bird on their back that you would push down on to make their wings flap.  I also drew a set of ponies that all had instrument symbols.

I love this thread! Yes to more animals for sure! There are so many pets, mascots, and whatnot folks would enjoy!

I especially loved someone's earlier idea around ponies based on the different environments (ocean, woodland, desert, mountains, islands, etc.)

As a history nerd, I'd love to see ponies based on various points in time (ancient Egyptian, ancient Greek, ancient Roman, medieval, renaissance, WWI, WII, etc.)

And what about an overlap with other cartoons/shows from the 80s (the time period in which ponies started)? I would LOVE to see She-Ra, He-Man, Rose Petal Palace, Popples, Lady Lovely Locks, Pound Puppies, etc. ponies. OMG I'm just so excited thinking about that. LOL

Vegetables!!! We get a lot of fruit themed Ponies, but no vegetable ones. Where are carrots, salads, cauliflowers, potatoes, beetroot, etc???

That is so true! There is Gigglebean in G3 and there are a few in G4 I think, but not brushables.

How about cellular organelles like Ribosome, Mitochondria, Chloroplast, Lysosome, Nucleus and Membrane Channel. I feel like we need Mural in this thread.

I just thought of an underwater set with octopus, star fish, jelly fish, sea anemones, giant clam and sea urchin. Or maybe corals, kelp or phytoplankton.

Speaking of which, there a lot of cool microscopic creatures with big personalities! Tardigrade, Daphnia, Volvox, Chlamydomonas, Euglena, Pyrrophyta, Hydra, Ostracods, Copepods. The names are not very snappy though. I was seriously thinking of having a Volvox-themed nursery.

An orange carrot themed pony with green hair could be really cute. Or hey how about an eggplant pony?

I guess there's Deputy Sprout. He's a veggie pony.

Volvox are beautiful!  Probably my fave algae!

Loving the carrot idea! Horses love carrots, too, so its certainly an appropriate theme.  ;)

I've always wanted more angel themed ponies. I love Snow'el II but I'd love to see an all-white pegasus with an angel or harp symbol.

I also love it when they give ponies horseshoes for symbols I hope they never stop doing it.

You get it!!! I mean in G1-3. Only veggie in the lot is HQG1C Pepperjack. And a carrot or aubergine Pony would rock socks

Constellation ponies :D

Edit to add: Maybe some history-related ponies. In the abstract sense such as an old style globe, pottery, ruins (and dinosaurs).
