Title: G5 Prediction
Post by: Ragamuffin on January 30, 2021, 04:46:10 AM
I just made a big, long, prediction post on my blog. Here's a short version of what I think G5 is going to be, along with the art I drew for it:

In my crystal ball I'm seeing a Celestia/Cadence/Luna-style head. They could be skinny and tall like them too, but it might be harder to make them stand up and display... besides, My Little Ponies are typically short! I think they will have horsey-er ears like in the 2017 Movie, coloured inside like G4.5/Pony Lifes. They're going to have big sparkly eyes, just like the G4.5s and 2017 movie ponies. Visible hooves and feathers are a must. The ponies will have eyebrows and pupils that look to the side. They're going to give the ponies sassy "Dreamworks" faces! There's going to be a pastel unicorn.

G5 is going to be adventure-driven again, just like late FiM, so I'm not expecting chibis like comedy Pony Life. The ponies will have to be more detailed than G4s too since the style has to work well in 3D. Does that mean we'll get eye sculpting? Of course not. The eyes will be as flat as ever.

As much as I would love body markings like in that blue pony up there and the leaked art, I don't know how likely it will be. Another thing that may-or-may not happen is glitter. Glitter is SUPER popular in toys right now, and I would want glitter on the ponies' hooves, wings, horns, and Cutie Marks. Maybe Hasbro could do this on select releases, but not all of them. Even though the ponies in the artwork and movie will have coloured-in ears and coloured-in hooves I expect the toys to rarely have them painted, if at all. I think unicorns might have different-coloured horns too as a response to the unicorn craze that's going on right now.

Something else I want but don't expect 100% is multi-coloured hair to be the norm again but I'm not sure how likely that will be. :lol: I would hope Hasbro continues having the current quality of hair with G5. Not that I love it, but it's better than what late G4 had.

Something I AM expecting (or at least... hoping for...) are multiple new playsets. We haven't seen a playset since the release of the school in 2018, that was THREE years ago already! G4.5 has not received one playset, save for the Wedding Castle re-release. The 2017 Movie had a TON of releases for it, like the Seaquestria Castle, the carousel re-release, the pirate ship, the various sea pony sets, and the FiM Collection Canterlot Castle. I think Hasbro would try to do the same for the G5 movie, or maybe even MORE since it's a new generation entirely and they want to really push it.

Bonus initial designs from a couple months ago. Back then I wasn't entirely sure what direction G5 would go in but now I feel like it's probably more like the ones shown above...

I would LOVE if the new ponies look like your sketches! They're adorabe! I like the hoof differences and fetlocks a lot :lovey:

Here's my prediction: your predictions are going to look better than the designs we'll be given :lol:

I think Zapper is right, these designs are probably way nicer than what we’ll get! :mrgreen:

I love them though, they’re really pretty.  :inlove:
