SpoilerSo is the leaked concept art the same ponies we know and love, or a whole new cast? I still can't find the concept art!
SpoilerI think I found the G5 concept art.. is there just the one pic, with unicorn!Fluttershy, appaloosa-ish Applejack, Twilight Sparkle and a sketch of Rarity? Or is there more concept art floating around?Well, they look interesting, if they're legit. I like AJ's markings and the feathering on her and Twilight. Not sure about the big hair on AJ and Rarity, though. The eyebrows are pretty weird, too :p plus geez, not more main 6, please.. give us a break already...The art style doesn't really look that different to me, honestly. It'll be interesting to see if these are real or not.
Is it safe to post some of the content right here in the thread? Because I have a lot of the files downloaded from "some other site" (and seriously, almost everyone there is in full panic mode).Some of it can already been seen on the "Horse-News" site.http://www.horse-news.net/2017/12/the-ride-just-hit-bump-but-it-never.htmlAgain, massive spoiler alert!

My weird sense of humour finds this thread amusing because of all the spoiler tags. SpoilerThe art for AJ is really pretty. I feel like if this is the concept art for actual continuing the same mane 6 ponies, it's not really G5. It's probably 4.5 by our determination as a community. I mean, all the previous generations have had a core group of ponies at one point or another. G1 began it with the 7 Characters, albeit at the very end of the line and in Europe. But they dominated and some of them had multiple style releases as well before the end of the line (Melody, Sweetheart, Starlight.)None of those ponies appeared in the core characters of G2. That was basically Ivy, Sundance (SunSparkle in Europe), Light Heart and a few others. G3 also reinvented the core group, we had Pinkie Pie and Dash, true, but Minty, Sunny Daze, Sparkleworks etc as well.G4 did keep Pinkie and Dash and some of the G3 names spilled over, but the bulk of the mane 6 wasn't from G3. Applejack is from G1, but her character is totally different. Twilight and Rarity, Fluttershy may have inspiration/name links from other generations but they are new characters to G4.If it were to be a real G5, we should see not only a new style of pony, but new characters and setting. I guess we don't know about setting yet, but so far we've had Ponyland, Friendship Gardens, Ponyville and Equestria so that's important for a new generation of MLP in terms of the canon. In terms of the ponies, when G3 became G3.5, it was totally different in the style of pony, but it stayed 3.5 because the characters were basically from G3, just redesigned. Thus far this is what the concept art suggests for 'G5'. And for me that doesn't make a new generation. If authentically Hasbro, this might just be them experimenting with the shape and also we don't know if it's just a sign of them keeping those three and none of the others. AJ would also connect right back to G1 again, so maybe more likely to stay than any of the others in a new generation. It's all speculation, but I feel like if you're doing a full scale reboot, it's only worth ending one franchise before it's actually died out and launching another if you're going to change it up in a big way. We saw that between G3 - G3.5 - G4. I would expect to see more different characters if it's a brand new generation. But we don't know yet. And maybe that's just my own personal hope. I am fed up with this mane 6. I would love to see different and new characters if we are getting a complete reboot. They don't have to be G1 throwbacks for me. I just like to see something original, not a new release piggybacking on the old one for its success.I think the end of a generation of MLP for most of the people on here is something we've experienced at least once. I mean, G1 ended in 1992-5 depending on where in the world you are; some ponypeople weren't even born then O.o. but we're all still here. It's not the end of the world. The weird thing for me is the expectation of a new generation and MLP continuing beyond what's out now...because when G1 ended, that was the absolute end of MLP at the time, and we didn't have online communities really to share it with - it was still just growing. It really won't be hard for the fans of FIM and G4 to keep it alive if it does end. .
Here's the concept art:G5 concept artvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginThese are 100% legit, otherwise they would not have been leaked alongside partially completed FiM episodes and other clearly legit things. But as I said before, while they are real, they are just concepts, so they may differ from what we end up getting.
