Logan Berrytown.

*Logan Barrington.

In fairness this name doesn't count because Logan doesn't exist as a toy, just as an animation character.

Whereas the G5 names are the names of the actual main cast. Which is a bit awkward.

I think the one that particularly bothers me is Sprout but I can't explain why.

I hope there are no nods to G1. I'd rather G4 hadn't mined G1 so much for material either, tbh. As nice as it is to have acknowledgement, the way they do it is generally bothersome...

Small new peak at the animation, apparently from a toy ad

Omg, I can't get over how cute the animation is!!! Every time I start getting irritated with the ugly toys, all I have to do is watch these little snippets and I fall in love with G5 all over again. They are sooooo adorable!

I'm okay with name Sprout,  although it is boring. Though I'd rather they go the whole enchilada,  and call him Radish Sprout.

A radish?  I thought it was a beet this whole time.

Sprout is definitely missing the rest of his name.
Either Sprout is his first name or last name (hard to tell), I only know that he is a deputy and his name does in fact have some relation to his symbol (since it's a Vegetable sprout)
My DeviantArt, why not drop by and take a look!

Some images have been leaked from an upcoming "I Can Read" picture book coming out at the end of the month. Nothing really spoiler-y, but new screenshots from the movie are included. Some cute stuff too!

Those new pictures are so cute! ^.^ Sunny is adooorable. And I like her dad's ponytail. And Hitch's little animal friends!

Is that movie poster in the background "HORNS" depicting an evil aquatic unicorn attacking from the deep???  Or maybe not... It's not in focus and I'm having trouble figuring out exactly what it is.

I think it’s supposed to be referencing Jaws if that helps.

I just love that little crab and seagulls!

What really intriques me this time around are the signs advertising the "Canter Logic". There's the digital-looking font and the outline of Phyllis's (still worst pony name) mane and glasses. Given her stock cutie mark, maybe she's the owner of a big tech company? And possibly a "evil big businesswoman" type antagonist given the way her signage is all over the town? Just a thought.

Also the "Horns" movie poster. I think this might suggest that earth ponies and pegasi think unicorns are dangerous because of their pointy horns. That image of Izzy with the tennis ball on her horn, as well as the lyric "warhead on your forehead" from the song leaked in the Izzy  plushie seem to support this idea.

Yes, definitely Jaws. It's basically the movie poster with a unicorn rising from the deep instead of a shark.

Any thoughts on Canterlogic Show? I'm guessing it's a talk show/ radio show, with Phyllis being the host, where they discuss daily life of Maretime Bay. And that's how we will learn about Sunny being seen as a bit of the odd one out. I think Phyllis' cutie mark is symbolic for pure logic, with no room for imagination or visionary ideals. Maybe "Phyllis" is a play on "Dr Phil"? Total speculation though.
I really love Sunny's home being a lighthouse. A beacon of light for others, just like the character.

The Jaws parody is... odd... What's a unicorn doing underwater?!

The setting does overall look very nice, warm and whimsical. I'm not big on 3D CG type animation, but I vastly prefer this over the flat world G4 presented.

I figured it was a JAWS reference but a unicorn underwater... Well I wasn't sure that's what it really was. If so, that and what is being guessed about Canter Logic (some kind of extreme political radio/tv show?) paints a grim picture of the society's ability to tolerate nonconformity.  Maybe it's meant to be more light hearted and just played for laughs but wow it seems dark.  I wonder if this generation IS meant for a slightly older audience... It is rated PG... What was G4s show/movies rated?

At first I was really just interested in the new toys but now I'm very curious to see the movie.
