Subspecies?) I'd always found them cute but not super-appealing. Some of the color combos and names I liked. Funnily enough they look a whole lot more like ponies than G4, but there's something about that style that I found immediately captivating. And of course the show vastly broadened the appeal by smartening it up and lending greater maturity, complexity, and so on. Not sure how much the Netflix characters (which look particularly awkward staring straight at you--maybe it looks better in motion?) would please either fans of the 80s ponies or the 2010s ones.thepegasisteriestnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670051005803498800.post-87457205552478717452021-07-03T23:11:41.508+02:002021-07-03T23:11:41.508+02:00I don't know if someone saw it since i haven&#...I don't know if someone saw it since i haven't seen anyone mention it anywhere yet, but has anyone noticed the Twilight's cutie mark on the purple platform in the castle playset?

This is a time of testing. Are you a FiM fan, or are you a MLP fan? That is the basic question that most of the G4 fans are facing today. Sure, G5 inherited the lore and world of G4, but they inherited their overall design of older gens (body type similar to G2, head closest to G3.5) as well as their mildly cluelessness about their own magical habitat (G1 and G3).<br /><br />G4 is the great exception to the rule in many ways. G4 brought a lot of renewal of classic MLP concepts as well as a many positive changes, but most of those changes were also atypical. G5 is regression to the mean at least in *some ways. No alicorns, no magic of friendship- just a poniverse with imperfect, mildly confused and relatively distrusting ponies divided in towns trying to figure out WTH they are supposed to do in this world. Breath of Wild/The Last of Us, ponystyle.<br /><br />- Do I think the ponies look silly/ugly compared to G4? I probably would if I thought G4 = MLP, but then again G4 is very different compared to most other MLP gens. G4's design is not an improvement nor a new standard for MLP. The design was not "progress" in of itself: it had to match demands of a generation of children really into small cute animals toys like LPS, that's one reason why they are so small. Much like philosophy, MLP keeps asking a couple of fundamental questions about her true nature and esthetics without ever answering those questions indefinitely. G4 was but one answer to a bunch of questions posed by certain people in a certain period of time. The questions remain the same with each gen, but times change- and consequently some of the answers change as well.<br /><br />- What is so great about G5? Personally, I love how they managed to design a pony that looks more like a classic G2/G3 MLP while updating it with Pixar-like cartoon qualities. It's not all Disney and Pixar, it's still recognizably MLP- but it's new at the same time. G4s are a common sight these days, and the market is saturated after ten years- people need something new otherwise MLP will not sell. I think G5 will be popular. That's one great thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670051005803498800.post-64904562447956747012021-07-03T02:02:05.618+02:002021-07-03T02:02:05.618+02:00Good to know Hasbro has recovered from their ident...Good to know Hasbro has recovered from their identity crisis and decided to release regular ponies after all.<br /><br />That new Walmart exclusive 5-pack seems like it has been produced in a bit of a rush. Their manes are all over the place, especially Pipp's- it looks like it was not sewed to the package? I do not really mind, but it looks a bit sloppy. I do love Izzy's curls even if they are not completely accurate. I am not sure why Hitch has glittery translucent molded hair, but I suppose this is an improvement over Shining Armor's 'troll doll hair'. Not highly inspiring stuff, but very nice nonetheless. The brushables would benefit from more interesting accessories and separate packaging. I hope we will see more brushables in the future- not just the mane five.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670051005803498800.post-79741258236958692222021-07-03T01:57:06.115+02:002021-07-03T01:57:06.115+02:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670051005803498800.post-64860206849047742522021-07-03T01:37:27.011+02:002021-07-03T01:37:27.011+02:00I think the bodies look wierd because they seem to...I think the bodies look wierd because they seem to be made from plastic instead of vinyl, it's very noticeable by the rough seams.ʚ Ayu ɞhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04468917731363886114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670051005803498800.post-30749876947595114842021-07-02T15:00:45.040+02:002021-07-02T15:00:45.040+02:00Omigosh!

Nothing has ever seriously grabbed me beyond G1, and I absolutely detest some gens, but I don’t see the point in expressing one’s disbelief in others’ tastes in this way. It’s rude, suggesting there’s something inherently wrong with the person who loves it just because you can’t also share in the same joy. I’m glad people are happy with it.
