How does everyone feel about the new LPS?

[tuneful87]

Are these strange little creatures still being considered G2, or are we onto G3 now? Their bodies are smaller than ever, and they seem to be very sharp and angular looking. Not cute and cuddly at all. I'm really not into them, and you will never catching me buying them! Not a one!

So is this is for the G2 LPS I've come to love? How do you feel about them?

[xdartfrogx]

I liked the very first few I saw, some fairies I believe. Didn't like them enough to buy them. I had no idea they intended to move away from the G2 line into such 'modern' forms. The current ones will never be welcome in my collection. They are just plain creepy. I think the ones out now should be 'G3' as they are just not the same and are 'revamped'. I wonder if they were trying to cut costs- cause I know they just cut their profits with this endeavor!

[tuneful87]

Modern is s nice way of putting it. I just can't imagine anyone gravitating towards these new molds. They're so cold looking!

i kinda consider them g3's just because they are pretty different in sculpting style.   some are kinda cute, but the horses scare me!

Yeah the horses are no good :S I do like some of the molds, but as a vast majority no I don't care for them. The lion,tiger, and cocker spaniel molds are my exceptions. Some of the other cats and dogs are okay.

dis faaace!

Rhini, I don't think I knew that you collected! Yay!

[Rhini]

Oh yes! haha. They were my favorite toys ever as a child besides my stuffed animals and ponies, so I have a TON of vintage ones. I also have several hundred G2's @_@

I was ecstatic the other day, I found most of the rare mommy and baby deer and fox sets!

[dxgirly]

The new ones definitely are definitely more like the tv show.... or should I say the tv show is like the new ones? They're okay I guess. I will miss G2. I guess I'll have to start picking more sets up on ebay.

 I collect all three generations, and I like each one for a different reason. The G3s are really stylized because they were designed by artist Kirsten Ulve. http://www.behance.net/gallery/Littlest-Pet-Shop-Pets-redesign-for-Hasbro/6078035

 I actually like the look of the G3s because they remind me a bit of Dakin Dream Pets. I also like that they seem to be doing a lot of pets that have little actions to them, much like the G1s. I miss the bobbling heads a lot though; that's my biggest beef with the G3s.

Awesome! I had a bunch of LPS as a kid. Would love to get them again...pink cat tower set, tree with raccoon, and the doghouse with pink poodle

i think that dog is super cute    some of the new ones are kinda cute but others like the giraffe and horses really frighten me.

Omg! Its so funny that you mention that pink cat tower, I lent the tower to a friend and then we stopped hanging out and I never got it back. For YEARS I thought about asking for it back

Muahaha! I used to 'trade' pets with a friend, but just for the night. Well, one time she thought I had stolen a pet and totally freaked out on me and made me look really bad. Turns out she had missed it and it was in her backpack after all. We were never friends after that.

sounds like a brat tuney i wouldnt have put up with her either LOL

I am on the littlest pet shop collector forum and many people on their have stop collecting because  of the new look of pets coming out. To me it is a little bit cartoonish and I like my "g2" pets the best. I have pets from each time they came out and I am still collecting them. But especially with these new series coming out I have only been collecting the bird lps since that is my favorite animal.  I see that too with MLP.  I will prob only stay and collect the ponies from the 80's since that the time I remember them.
