Ponies who are rare but overlooked, in your opinion?

[Pokeyonekenobie]

The orange sea side baby is also a headache! Along with the pink fancy mermaid and baby pineappple! Oh and add daffodil from the flower ponies set to the list too!

Maddie has the pink mermaid in her sales right now.

I'm not sure if she actually is? She just so rarely shows up, so she might be? I regularly look specifically for sweetberry ponies and only seen her a few times, maybe 5?, including the one I bought. I see Blueberry Baskets all the time, and Boysenberry Pie seems to be one of the most common of the set.

Oh. I've seen her a few times since I started collecting G1s again.My daughter loves the Sweetberry Ponies.

i love munchy (shes my next grail) but shes near impossible to find!

I found her in a thrift bin for $0.25 years ago! My best pony find.

I think Magic Star and Truly are both underrated. Love that rearing pose. UK Magic Star is gorgeous, too. So vibrant.

Sand digger!!!! I had to search forever for one! Ayeeee!

Also:
Nurse tender heart
The all white activity baby (I can never find her for sale!)
Magenta satin and lace
Pink sprinkles
Baby stargaze
Baby blubberchen

I didn't know Sand Digger was rare. o.O I forgot how I got mine since it's been quite a few years....

I'm seconding the Sundazzle SHS ponies; I've been (casually) seeking an upgrade for my bait yellow one for years, and I think I've seen one or two, and I've never even seen the orange one for sale!

Yep, I haven't laid hands on these girls yet, every time I see them on sales lists, they're already gone, or on ebay, the bids get pretty high. And we sold them here, my best friend has two of the set if I remember right..

My ultimate pick would be pink Sprinkles. I've never seen one. I know she's often mistaken for Firefly, but I've messaged a lot of sellers about blurry pics of pink ponies with blue hair, and they always have lightning bolts or zig-zaggy lines.

Just put one for sale on Ebay I really need to pay my rent and i've lost my job....

I'm going with Dainty Dahlia as my response. I also agree with those saying that Bright Eyes and Cranberry Muffins need more love. Fortunately for me, these three aren't as pricey as Red Roses, Mimic and Blueberry Baskets, and yet I want them more. (Well, tie with Cranberry and Blueberry--I like Cranberry's colors better but my mother and aunts picked blueberries with my grandparents all during their childhoods so I want Blueberry because of that eventually as well.)

I also agree that the later g1s don't get enough love / respect from collectors. Really a shame because I love how cute / quirky they are.

Yeah I don't know a whole lot of people after Cascade! I got her in the Derby, and I didn't even win - I think I came about 7th!

Oh, yes! I really love Cascade and want one, but she's not mentioned much. I think she's so pretty.

I totally agree about Cascade. Which brings a question to mind: How common are European exclusives in comparison to their U.S. counterparts? Does anyone know? Because I can think of many underappreciated European exclusives: Sweet Delight, Painting Time, Snowdrop, Love Story, etc....

My guess would be that European exclusives would be, for the most part, less common than U.S./North American ponies because ponies were pretty expensive in Europe and were probably a little scarcer there. (Someone correct me if I'm wrong; I feel like I've heard that in Europe, genuine Hasbro ponies were pricey.)

I also think basic earth pony European exclusives would be, for the most part, much less appreciated than other European exclusives because they don't really stand out. By that I mean that they're not like the Mountain Boys or regular-eyed versions of babies we had as BBE ponies over here, and they don't have any memorable feature (necessarily); they're simply non-gimmicky earth ponies and there's not as much incentive to notice them. Many of them are really pretty, though!

I completely agree. To me personally, their simplicity and lack of gimmicks is what makes them so appealing.
