Show Some Love for the Orange Ponies

She seems to be a very common G1 and is often still in good condition, so thankfully it wasn't too hard to find a suitable Surfing Days for my collection. I've recently discovered my love for more boldly coloured ponies and I had an aquarium for many years, so I thought she might be a fitting addition to my collection.

Don't you just love how neon-tastic she is?

I still don't like neon colours in general, but the tropical ponies really manage to spread the summer holiday vibe, especially in winter.

I like neons, but didn't like the Tropicals at first. Turns out they need good lighting to be shown off properly.

Like you said, the summer-in-winter-vibe is what made me snag Hula Hula/Sail Away. It was so cold and miserable out, her colors were shown off properly by the seller, turning her from drab to fab, and made me feel all warm for a minute. Bought her on the spot.

True about the lighting. I usually only buy what's on my wish list, but I've also bought a few ponies just because they looked great in the listing. :lolpony:

Sail Away is the other Tropical I intend to buy sometime, because of her ship symbol. :) I've seen a few listings, but she doesn't look very good in the photos I've seen so far. Dull colours, wrong background, flash reflections etc.

She's one of those ponies that looks better in hand, then in most pictures.
 
Only outside in the sun do Surfing Days' colours really stand out, so I thought I'd add another photo of her, showing off her vibrant orange, plus one of Baby Splish who has finally found her float again. :D

I just got her today at goodwill! I’m trying to fix her :)
