I did some research:visitors can't see pics , please register or loginI divided the parts of the face into ears (red), forehead/nose (blue), upper lip (green) and chin/jaw (orange).Dolly Mixes have weird ears that don't match up to the other gens, a nose dip, and an upper lip that sticks out.G3s have vaguely horselike ears, a nose dip, an upper lip that sticks out, and big eyes. G3 and Dolly Mix eyes are identical in style but Dolly Mixes' are very small.G1s have short triangle cat ears, little to no nose dip, and a flat upper lip.The Retro/"Modern" G1s have a slight dip in the nose, a flat upper lip, and HUGE eyes, but the eyes don't look anything like G3 OR G1. In G3 and G1, the bottom lashes/outline of the eye turns into the outline for the iris. In these Modern G1s, the line continues forward a bit. The eyelashes are also longer than G3 or G1, and they're a bit curled, whereas G3 and G1 lashes are more straight. For the ears, I think it's a mix between G1 and G4. They're still catlike like G1, but they're a bit taller like G4.
Would it be possible to do the same with the bodies to get an overall perspective?From the above it does look like the heads are quite Hasbro's own random whim tbh. They're nothing like G1 heads, but they also miss important features from G3/Dollymixes as well. You didn't put G4 on the comparison but honestly I don't think they're like that either. It feels like Hasbro just grasped something out of think air to put in as a head.Let's not call mane six ponies 'modern g1', even in parentheses. Modern G1 is the retro line. This is something else.
Here's the body comparison:visitors can't see pics , please register or loginDivided into neck (orange), back (purple), legs (pink), stomach (green), and chest (blue).I think they're eerily similar to G3, if only because of the pose. The weight is still a bit different. G3 hooves are much rounder, these "retros" are very flat. G3s also have longer legs. G1s have hoofy hooves, and Dolly Mix continues to be mini-G3.
