I would say that most recognizable ponies would be:

1. Firefly
2. Bowtie
3. Applejack
4. Sundance
5. Cotton Candy
6. Glory

I really like this list! (And I'm saying this even though Gusty is my personal favourite!:))
Maybe for aethetic purposes though, instead of two pink ponies, I would swap out cotton candy for Medley, then you have 2 pegs as well.
I'd also actually swap out Sundance for Moondancer (I like her but she is not really seen together with the others in the list!) then you have to Unicorns.
(I would really include Applejack, not only was she in the pilot episode - she was VERY commonly owned and appeared on a LOT of merchandise. I never saw the pilot episode as a child but grew up with applejack just because I saw her printed on soap, cot hangers, ribbons, birthday cards...she was everywhere)

Anyway, I think:

1.Applejack -earth
2.Firefly - peg
3. Bowtie - earth
4. Moondancer - unicorn
5. Medly - peg
6. Glory - unicorn

I think thats a good mix of colours and earth/peg/uni ratio and also they work well together because they were all in the pilot together and commonly owned ponies

Pony Corral / Re: Rarity's accent?

« on: January 22, 2012, 01:29:34 AM »

She makes me think of Audrey Hepburn, I think her accent is 'old-fashioned' and not much heard today (which is a shame because it is really lovely)

Pony Corral / Re: Have you ever unboxed a MIB G1 pony.... :O

« on: January 21, 2012, 09:46:04 AM »

Several, when I was little and they were new hehe

But really, I've not had any MIB G1's (nowadays) However, if I did I would very very likely open them as I can't really understand keeping a pony in a box....most of the joy is playing with the hair afterall. So no one sell their MIB's to me, they are not safe

Pony Corral / Re: Who is in your childhood herd?

« on: January 20, 2012, 12:35:46 AM »

Ohh good question

I find it really interesting to hear about peoples childhood herds.

My early Childhood herd:

NSS Gusty
TE Sky Rocket
First Tooth North Star
Flower Bouquet
Lavender Lace
Singing Pocket
Pony Bride

I also had two of those little petite pony playsets

A bit later into my childhood when I was quite old (6 lol) I inherited my older cousins she'd grown out of:

Twinkle*
NSS Shady
Little Flitter
Songster*
Tugger*
Thundercloud*
Baby Ribbons and Hearts*

Ones with * by the name I later gave back to my cousin so her daughter could have them ^_^ (Would have given them all, but they were stored all separate and now I've found them again she's too old again haha)
(*kicks self for giving away thundercloud and mail order uk baby
