I really hope it’s not reissued collecter ponies again I’d love to see princess ponies! Anything new would be exciting
I would be terribly conflicted by Princess ponies. Less so if they didn't have bushwoolies, but on the one hand, I love the princesses. And on the other, everything about it would contradict my childhood, and thus feel wrong.I still haven't bought Sweetie from the TE line because her sticker says Sweet Stuff. I can junk the box, but not the sticker :/

I wouldn't go as far as bushwoolies though personally.Tbf, I'm amazed they did twinkle eyes. That must have taken quite a bit of research. So who knows what would be next! I also vote no for tinsel, especially Applejack because I think she'd hate it!

I also vote no for tinsel, especially Applejack because I think she'd hate it!There are some US names that I can just pass over, but some that really bother me. I think this one is because as a child I had Sweet Stuff and the Treasure Hunt on vhs, and I always watched it feeling jarred, like the people who made it got it wrong and didn't know enough about MLP to call her by the right name. So it just became more annoying to me as I got older and realised where it came from.The other US names that get to me are the Princesses, because of that episode, and Rainbow Magic, because of her story and my childhood memories of her here. I'm pretty sure I'd buy 'Boysenberry Pie' or whatever without a second thought. Most of the big brothers, too, even if I don't use the US names.But Sweet Stuff is just...its not a name, it's a very unimaginative description of candy or sweets. Weirdly, if they had made these with boxes and stickers in French, German etc with their names in those languages, I'd probably have bought those instead. It's a really irrational twitch of mine.
Sweetie Gumdrop Stardrop Brown. Probably.I like Sweetie, though, since in the UK we all candy 'sweets', and a 'sweetie' is a kind of child's way of saying sweet, so we'd have 'sweetie day' when I was a kid. Not that I knew what her symbol actually was until I was an adult. I don't think we have gumdrops here or we didn't then? They could actually be bushwoolies.I think I could have lived with Gumdrop as an alt name, mind you. But STUFF should not be in a name of anything. Period.

The collectors, AJ, Bowtie, Posey, Lickety-Split: "Now with tinsel in their hair! Collect all these special editions in celebration of MLP!" I don't see that happening at all tbh, it's Basic Fun after all, not Hasbro.
I got the impression the Pretty Parlour didn't sell well since they cancelled the next playset they had planned (the one w/ Lemondrop and Brandy - which one's that again? Show Stable? I always get the early G1 playsets mixed up), but I might be mistaken.
