Oh god, those really are hideous, I agree. WTF.

I haven't really loved any of the MLPs after the originals (which were my childhood ones) tbh, but these are truly the worst.

I honestly think G1-G3 were pretty ugly too, honestly, at least in the cartoons. So this feels like a return to form imo compared to the anime-eyed G4 ponies.

And since I was speaking only of the cartoons before, I will say that I do agree that this new generation has probably the ugliest toys in all of MLP. Because they look just like the show. G1-G3 had pretty nice looking toys compared to the hideous show designs, and MLP:FiM had good toys because the anime look of the show worked well in toy form. This new Gen just doesn’t look good in any format.

The toys existed before the cartoons.

I know? I don’t think I said differently? Just that the original toys looked good compared to the designs they went with for the cartoon.

I was there when the first toys came out, I know they came first.

Ugh. I want to get a MLP for my Courtney Moore doll and it's hard to find any mini ponies are that are G1 and all the new molds are so ugly and weird looking.

(Anonymous) 2022-10-18 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
There are a few g1 minis around. I have a mini Glory. I know that there’s a “world smallest my little pony” figurine.

Typo has g1 inspired Christmas babbles this year.

It depends on what dimensions you want.

I normally find something to like about the toys for each gen, but Gen 5? Nope. I saw some in a shop a few weeks back and had a look because I've always loved MLP but the molding/look of them was absolutely horrendous. I don't think it's a translation issue from the cartoon either because there would be a way to make the toys look good, but they didn't try at all for the new Gen and it sucks.

(Anonymous) 2022-10-17 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't give a hoot about My Little Pony so I thought, surely the toys can't be that bad to the average layperson.

But EGADS. They are HORRIBLE. How did any one person greenlight those designs, let alone multiple people?!

(Anonymous) 2022-10-18 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
Those are nightmare ponies.

I don't really see a big difference between g4 and g5 outside of going from 2d to 3d... but I'm a g1 fan (a *few* g2s), so I guess I don't expect to like the new ones.

(Anonymous) 2022-10-18 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
They’re not my favorite, but I don’t dislike them either. I think they’re kinda charming in an odd way. Definitely don’t find them ugly! I don’t like the bigger trend in character design that they’re part of, I have to say.

(Anonymous) 2022-10-18 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
They kinda remind me of Skylanders.

(Anonymous) 2022-10-18 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
Honestly the thing I miss most of the FiM designs is because they were so simple it was easy to draw your own. Like just endlessly customizable even if you have minimal drawing ability. These ones...not so much. I know I sound like an old grump but not everything needs to be CGI animated.

(Anonymous) 2022-10-18 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
They look like the Dreamworks Trolls. Why?
