Do you have her? Your thoughts? Share some more pics!

I do have them, an army of them loose and in box.

Starting from the very beginning of MLP this year. Will continue to dedicate the first few days to birthday ponies in celebration of those born within that month.

I only have Sundance. I've no interest in Megan so I voted "have them" and "pass today" 

[Ponyfan]

I have Sundance but not Megan.

I have both I wanted them so badly as a child, but they weren't in any of the toy shops

Love pkw xxx

[lovesbabysquirmy]

not my thing

[NanoRuby]

Have Sundance, who is super cute, but not Megan. I don't really care for her face sculpt I'm afraid.

[Leave a Whisper]

I have the TLS version of Sundance, I've never been one for dolls.

Haha, that's exactly how I voted too! I love Sundance, but I don't have any need for Megan. I guess I do have Twice as Fancy Megan (along with TAF Sundance, of course), but as for original Megan and Sundance, I only have Sundance. I actually have two Sundances!

I have two full sets of both, I believe, except I think a single shoe is missing.

Have. They used to be in the old collection, wearing the classic dungarees from the movie & a matching cape (because the UK sold a set like that)

I lost one of my Megan's shoes through a crack in the back deck at my grandparents' lake house within a few days of getting her as a kid! I spent all day with a flashlight digging around between the slats with a stick to no avail. It drove me batty forever. If only Ebay existed back then!

I bought the mail order Megan and SS Sundance with my own money as a kid. I was super excited to get them, but wasn't that enamored with them when they arrived. I thought Megan was kind of ugly, and I lost her shoe right away (see story above!), and I always felt she was incomplete and useless after that. I don't know whatever happened to her. She probably made her way into my sister's Barbies, which didn't make the cut when my mom was saving the toys that meant most to us. I'm not looking to replace her so I said pass.

I still have SS Sundance, but she is really dirty and yellowed, with what look like rust spots on her. I tried bleaching, oxy clean soak, gently scrubbing with dish soap, and she's been in my sunfading window for well over a year, but she still looks manky. I'm not interested in replacing her with a better condition/other version one. I might have a hairless standard one in my bait box.

Absolute favs! Even though yeah, Megan is not a nice looking doll and Sundance is honestly pretty boring. But nostalgia trumps all! Never had them as a child, but I sure wanted them! Only saw them in a store once when I was very young. If I could only have one MLP set this would be it! 

[Taffeta]

I rejected this set as a kid because of Megan, lol But I do have quite a few sets now. I have one 1986 UK set complete with its box. Then loose sets for the 1987 UK, US, So Soft and TAF. I would really love the 1987 UK box though, it's a really rare package and I only know of one surviving example...but yes. Genuinely more interested in the packaging than the set here

I'd like the US boxes for all the sets too but it's less important to me.

[Lady Twilight]

I have UK Megan. I used to have all the variations of Megan, but decided I didn't need an army of them. I ended up just keeping my favorite.

I want to find a nice condition SS Sundance, but Sundance - in any of her variations - is a hard pony to find in good condition. I've never gotten one that made the cut to stay in my herd.

[Heart Of Midnight]

I have Sundance  but I don't have Megan.. I want her.
