Pokeyonekenobie! Go sit in the corner, and think about what you just said.
having an activist main character comes across like "how do you do fellow kids" and trend chasing
Anyone here getting tired of the Mane Six? I mean, they're great and all, but with all due respect, we've had the same main characters for about ten years now. Doesn't anybody want some new main characters? Somepony new? With new personalities and names and everything, not just a slight recolor or a 'new look' like Pony Life? For goodness sake, Hasbro, I'm getting tired of these ponies. Maybe for G5 do something where you use names/slightly altered colors from G1, especially ponies that were usually left in the background and weren't really paid attention to! I can already think of a new 'Mane Six': - Medley: Sweet as pie, loves to sing, always there to help a friend, green pegasus with blue-green mane, silvery-blue eyes, cutie mark is silver music notes - Bubbles: Exaggerates things, a bit ditzy, always tries to keep her promises, darkish yellow earth pony with darkish cyan mane and white blaze on forehead, darkish cyan eyes, cutie mark is three darkish cyan bubbles and two lime bubbles - Glory: Adventurous, fun to be around, never flees any danger her friends might be in, pure white unicorn with messy light indigo mane with a sky blue streak, sky blue eyes match streak, cutie mark is light indigo shooting star with three light indigo stars around it - Locket: Smart, good at keeping secrets, will never abandon a friend even if it means something bad will happen to her, darkish pink pegasus with pale purple, white, and orange mane, pale purple eyes thank always seem to sparkle, cutie mark is three orange keys - Primrose: Loves to garden, always tries, likes to sing with Medley, peach-pink earth pony with blue hair with a reddish-purple streak (Because G1 Primrose had a red tail, and no cop cars here, please!), warm amber eyes, cutie mark is blue butterfly on a reddish-purple primrose - Buttons (not a background pony): Organized, creative, sometimes a worrywart, almost pastel purple unicorn with blue hair with light red steak that has a tinge of pink to it, very light pink eyes, symbol is three light red buttons with a tinge of pink to them and three blue starsI'm not a great drawer, so I won't provide a picture of them, but if someone else could make them in a G5 style, that would be very great! I'd love to see what you could do.

Old can be new, too! In a way, but they'd be all new and different, with their personalities and colors each changed in their own way. Besides, what's so bad about G1?
And if they do not have boys in any sort of advertisement, or whatever, then it's all a bunch of hooey to me.

I am wondering about the rumors that this gen will be for slightly older audiences than FiM? Did we get any confirmation on that? Because if this show is truly for Gen Alpha then this rumor is as good as debunked. Like I stated, Gen Alpha is super young.
