Quote from: Cheshire_Raptor on May 29, 2018, 09:34:53 AMI absolutely without question HATE the G2's and current run of MLP. As in Cannot. Stand. Them.There are still Shadows among us...Each to their own Some of the later g2 have amazing colour schemes. I admit they don't look particularly equine, but for me they kind of lost the right to be considered realistic when they decided to make ponies pink and green.

I love tales because I grew up watching them! They were re-run on TV in the early 2000's straight after school and I used to love watching it. I actually forgot about it but always remembered a specific episode where one of the ponies won a competition to an island? and I spent ages tracking it down. It just so happens that the day i found out that it was Tales, I found a copy in CEX for 50p, still works and my dad was very impressed about watching it that night. He's actually nicknamed my pony Kasper, Teddy, because hes so much like him.

Not sure if this is particularly unpopular, but even though Pink Dreams is one of my favourite ponies, I really think she should have been a different type of pony. Maybe a regular baby or adult. A flutter with a sleeping cat just seems off. Flutters should be all about flowers and flying/wind-related things!
Takara ponies real or fake are just super weird to me , they dont count as ponies to me. In my eyes they are more like anthropomorphic horses.
Love it seems makes flyin dreams, so hearts can soooar.

In my eyes they are more like anthropomorphic horses.I agree. They don't do anything for me.About the G2s looking like snakes with legs (lol) they also kind of look like brontosaurus. Like, Berry Bright and Cutesaurus seem related when you look at those necks.The earlier G4 MLPs (not the current ones) look a lot like deer or mice. For some reason they made their ears HUGE in comparison with their bodies, and even in comparison with how they look on the show. They also told Lauren Faust that they couldn't have more G1-ish ears (like, more triangular) because "sharp angles are for boys, rounded shapes are for girls." Wh-what?
People from Planet Marketing, that's who.I will say that the G1 ears are sometimes a bit too triangular, as in looking more like cat ears, but that is still utterly trashy reasoning on Hasbro's part.It's honestly not surprising that the G4 toys have some awkwardness to their looks in ways. The designs of most characters, while they try to follow a horse-y body shape, are heavily stylized especially when it comes to the heads and on top of that the animation is often guilty of cheated angle (especially in early seasons). Trying to capture that in 3D? I can't say I envy the designers.
