Possible G5 artstyle?

[NanoRuby]

I wasn't sure about the style at first but I quite like it now. Like many people, I wish they had longer more horse-like muzzles, but aside from that they look good. I especially love the fluffy hooves!

And Mrs Prospector, I wouldn't worry too much about the lower jaw thing. While drawn without them here, the toys will be three dimensional, and the movie and show are supposed to be 3d cgi, and I don't see how you could make them in 3d without giving them a lower jaw.

Be careful! Hasbro will take that as a challenge!

They already have...

They don't have lower jaws. Whether this is Hasbro's design or some minor company. Big. Fat. Eww.

They're pretty cute! I really like that unicorn character, although, the style strikes me more as a pony lookalike than real ponies. I still like it though. About time they gave the characters proper hooves.

Does the comforter say "Everypony can make a difference"?

That it does! The crown motif matches up with other supposed G5 things.

I believe the names were pulled from 4ch*cough*. I'm gonna go have a look myself to get a source to cite on my wiki's Leak page, I'll see if there's more surrounding context.

The Pegasus's headband is now making me think of the roaring 20's

The Unicorn's horn also has... swirls in it?

Oh I haaaaaaate these. It looks like someone tried to make a cuter version of the Family Guy/Big Mouth art style. Here's a quick and dirty comparison I made.

Now just give them bigger pupils and some eyelashes.

Yeah these designs are just about the opposite of what I like in cartoon art styles. Maybe the toys will look better but otherwise this is a hard pass for me.

Got home, found the thread mentioned earlier. The names were "Work in progress names":

Spoiler

"Yes, the names were works in progress, im assuming they’re nicknames. The white one w the pink hair is the cutest IMO, she has a rainbow dash looking lightning bolt and a blue and pink mane. The Izzy one is cute too. She also has like a dual colored streaked mane. I thought it was weird their names were only one word on the concepts but I’m just assuming they have a second word after those names. "

I don't see the similarities to Family Guy at all but seeing the face by itself does in a way remind me of Dora the Explorer. Not that that's a bad thing just an observation.

They have eyebrows!  I just noticed!  Are these the first ponies to have serious eyebrows in the art?   

[Marshie]

I'm terrified! Are these even ponies?? 

[Ponybookworm]

The good: The hair is amazing!!! The hooves & hoof tufts!!! The unicorn's horn!!! The adorable eyes!!!

The bad: The noses & mouths - what's with them??? Easy on the pink Hasbro!!! The pegasus's wings look like afterthoughts rather than part of the Pony...

That's my honest opinion

[WingsOfMasquerade]

If this is real then...sssssiiiiggghhhhh
I do want to reserve total judgment until something official happens/confirms and also to see the toys or CG of it/how it's really supposed to be rather than just a blanket.
But unless something miraculous happens: gonna pass.
They're better than the g4.5 who all look quite snarky/the same personality for every one and overly cartoony with the mouths drawn over top of the eyes & etc but like..it seems they're forgetting these are ponies in lots of ways. With like human necks and Chihuahua faces with total forward eyes and then the whole entire front of the horse face is reduced to the 'button nose' or pig nose with completely separate mouth under it to make it more human. 

Thank you to Delphian: your edit shows that it's a completely human face with totally human hairline they've got going there. Look how the side lines even go under the bottom of the face there/gosh. The Stewie is there because there is no way ever possible that "Stewie" should be able to share eye/mouth/nose/brow placement with a horse and yet here we go...he does because of how they did the design.

I mean, it saves money to not be collecting pony toys or merch...but I mean I did enjoy the excitement of going to a store to get a toy I wanted from a cool show or something. I will continue with BasicFuns, I guess...
