New favorites collection discussion (Poll results included!)

[Aquatic Neon]

Back in July last year I started a poll asking who everyone wanted to see in the next favorites collection with some likely candidates! http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,336343.0.html

With an overwhelming amount of votes the number one winner was Big Macintosh out of 122 people 91 said they wanted him as one of the ponies in the set thats 74% thats a large number! So if hasbro saw my poll for instance and made a favorites set out of the top 7 this is who it would be...

Big Macintosh
Bon Bon
Granny Smith
Spitfire
Octavia
Thunderlane
Discord (Large exclusive)

Sounds like a perfectly fine set to me! Not my exact choices but many similar for me! :)The runner up set would be....

Changeling
Soarin
Dr. Whooves
Fleur De Lis
Princess Luna (Accurate Colored)
Cloudchaser
King Sombra (Large Exclusive)

Also another amazing set in my eyes if we get the first one as is this should be next years!!! I would love any ponies out of both sets!

So what do you guys think of the results would you be happy with these ponies?

[hathorcat]

Switch out Discord on the first set and that one would work for me All new characters and I  am happy.

[achab1984]

I really don't care what ponies would be in it. All I want is different ones!!! (as in not the ones that have been out already and released a million times.....LOL)

[Silver_mirror46]

YES TO BOTH

[Aquatic Neon]

YES TO BOTH

Agreed I'm so nervouscited to see who is in the new set tomorrow is the toy fair!!!

[Shenanigans]

Out of these I would buy Big Mac, Luna, Fleur De Lis, and possibly Granny Smith I would buy Cloudchaser if she had a different hairstyle or was a brushable

[Aquatic Neon]

This poll was for the brushables favorites collection number #3

[Starly]

Anyone would be nice.

Agreed Starly anyone NEW! Hopefully boys for me, and I'm guessing you're hoping no translucent for you Starly hehe

I wouldn't mind translucent but only if it's a character we're all tired of (sorry sorry I love transparent poniees)

Oh I love them too I just know Staly doesn't like them haha!

[Starly]

My nightmare would be a transparent + glitter theme line like Crystal empire or royal wedding, just a years worth of releases all translucent and glittery. D:

[prancingstag]

Either option looks nice and I would like all of these characters to make it into the toyline at one point or another, but if it were my decision, I'd split up some of them into different categories, make more sets and add other characters to boost the numbers. Plus have a LOT of boys thrown around to even up the gender divide. Unfortunately my ideas would require a lot more variety in molds and I'd probably be gently made redundant if I worked at Hasbro.

"Sky High Pegasi"

Spoiler

Unique exclusive: Bulk Biceps/Snowflake
Regular ponies: Thunderlane, Cloudchaser, Flitter, Spitfire, Soarin, and a third Wonderbolt - Misty, Surprise, or Fleetfoot would be most recognisable. Wonderbolts preferably without costumes, to add variety in the body colours.

Considering Discord is SO much larger and more complex than any pony, I wouldn't put him in a Favourites Collection. I think he deserves more attention and to be given a unique single release. Perhaps he could be the Fair exclusive.

[LuckyTwirlerina]

I think Discord should get the benefit of an individual release. And I'm not sure how they would make a brushable set with him work.  Or the changeling.

I'd buy either of those sets though, really. 

[FoolBornUnicorn]

That first set is what my dreams are made of...
