Quote from: lovesbabysquirmy on August 16, 2018, 12:55:07 PM*wiggles* So glad the show is embracing the original G1 so much. Of course they would have to, because without G1, there would be no G4 and Lauren Faust would have just have had to contend with "improving" some other CalArts animated show... She is married to the creator of Powerpuff Girls, after all! Didn't it used to be a rumor/story that the Power Puff Girls where named for MLP? Seems it might be true since Faust has said in a panel before that she owned Bubbles as a child.

The ultra talented Andrea Hollis! She was one of the sculptors for the first generation of My Little Pony!
So is MLP featured on this show now or is it coming soon? I'm glad that Summer's on there though because she will give a proper opinion about classic MLP collectors. By proper you don't get someone who mainly collects G4 and believes anything before G4 is garbage and they give their false opinion about what G1's and G3's were all about.
Did you see one of the comments on that Instagram post with Faust "MLP owes a lot to Faust" lololololol haha
Did they do any interviews with G2 and G3 designers?

I don't know whether she did or did not make the statements about G1 attributed to her, but she hasn't done anything to dispel them, thus I cannot respect her or consider her a genuine fan of G1. It has nothing even to do with G4, I'm fine about that being involved...but someone involved in FIM which also involved creating misapprehensions about G1? Has no place in a show about real MLP for me I'm afraid.

You have to keep in mind...before she was the series bible creator for FiM, Lauren Faust was just a nostalgic hungry vintage pony collector like the rest of us. Whether you agree with her methods, or disagree with them, deciding whether or not someone is a "true fan" or not in that way isn't helping either.

And that's kind of hard to forgive. I'm not going so far as to say Faust ruined MLP. But FIM - and hasbro's obsession with mane 6 - has.
