Though there are awesome ponies coming out soon, I'm sure some of us still have a pony we want that hasn't been made. So my question is, what would you like to see from G4 that it's lacking in now? This question can apply to the show as well c:

Besides more ponies without pink or purple, I really want more rainbow-haired ponies. I hope Rainbow Dash doesn't end up as our only one, as I don't even like her that much (it seems like every one I find has the eye's placed to high) ):
Also, I'd like more non-show ponies, or at least some obscure, not popular background ponies.
 
Combable boys!

I second that! Not to be redundant, but a regular size Derpy would be cool. And maybe Octavia would be nice too. And definitely more color variety, like Argentum-Zeena said.
 
I couldn't agree more! Non-show-accurate hair is one of my biggest peevs! I make sure every pony I purchase gets a make-over because of that. :tongue2: And boy ponies for sure, especially Big Mac and the Flim Flam Brothers! I think more playsets, like the Ponyville kind, would be awesome too, since g4s are relatively small. I also think it would be cool to re-incarnate non-pony friends, like Pretty Kitties! Oooh, and globally themed ponies would be really awesome too! :)
 
I just thought of another pony that I think would be nice: mail-order! I was too young (read: non-existant) to participate in the G1 mail orders, so a new mail-order pony would be really interesting!
 
I echo the rainbow hair sentiment, but I'd also like to see some more purple ponies. I mean like, REALLY purple. Daisy Dreams, Twilight Sparkle, and Lily Blossom just aren't cutting it! Blue and yellow ponies make me dance with glee, and those seem to be coming out, but they really need some nice strong purple to balance 'em out.
 
Ooo, agreed! A true purple would be lovely. The purple we have now is borderline dark pink. I think one that looks like the dark purple in Princess Luna's hair (or even her body!) would look great. Something a tad closer to blue on the color scale rather than red.
 
I have no clue if this is even fixable, but one thing that really bugs me out of my mind is the pegasus wings that get in the way of their cutie marks, and they have their cutie mark almost on their leg. It made me think of the G3 cutie cascade line. I think Blossomforth looks the worst, with the one flower being pretty far down her leg. I don't know if this bothers anyone else, but it drives me insane. Wish they would do something about that (unlikely :p).
 
I would really like to see more varied poses as well! Even the ones which have one front leg lifted up are at least a little bit different.

I also want more rainbow hair, and green ponies which aren't blind bag sized. And sea ponies! I've never owned a sea pony.
 
Bring on the male ponies and some other characters with speaking parts, like the Cakes, Derpy/Ditzy in regular brushable size, and Wonderbolts! It would also be great to see some updated animal companions, like Tank, Gummy or Opal. it's probaly too much to wish for, but a Granny Smith would be awesome too. I'd just like to see more of the content and character base from the show in the toy range - and not just in Brony-bait retailer exclusives, but in the main line.

Right now my enthusiasm lies with the surprise bag sized toys because they appear to be going deeper and producing one-off mold characters in that range, whereas the brushables seem a little hampered by the need for multi-release molds and the need to pump out endless pink ponies. I am hoping Comic Con may bring us some good news in that direction. I'll be hitting the Hasbro stand to see what I can find out or see when I am there in just two weeks. :D
 
Wonderbolts! Why didn't I think of that? That would be sooo awesome.
 
I really wish they'd make the show ponies a little bigger and a little more accurate. Some new poses would be nice too. Some tropical themed ponies would be fun for the summer!

Yeah, like Applejack's freckles. Those would have made much more sense than the eyebrows they gave her.
Speaking of bigger ponies, I'd love for there to be more Fashion Style ones. If they want to stick to just show ponies, why not the Cuite Mark Crusaders?
 
I agree with all the posts about new poses ;D though I'm glad that all the ponies so far have had movable necks (excluding the blind bags ones) but I wish they were bigger. I think the styling size should have been the regular size so I hope they release more of those. ^.^
