RainbowMau 289 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 (edited) Don't get me wrong, I think G1 toys are great collection pieces for any brony and I'd like to have some, but I don't see them as cute as the animated ones, and you can see it if you compare styles: Maybe it's because the snouts are larger in the toys, or maybe the cheeks look bigger, or maybe they're too realistic and detailed. What do you think? Edited July 9, 2014 by RainbowMau 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyan Blue 945 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 I honestly just think they are weird, not really creepy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
websterhamster 203 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 (edited) I swear they're selling a G1 knock-off at Dollar Tree. As far as creepiness goes, they don't look very detailed, especially not compared to the FiM toys, and they're certainly not realistic. They do look more horse-like, however.

DND 2,350 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 A bit, the eyes aren't very proportionate. It never really bothered me too much though aside from me not really owning any G.1 toys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M'aiq the Liar 5,801 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 I think it would be the eyes, you have a fairly realaistic horse body, with human eyes on it. Always makes for a odd feeling if you stare at them to long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Kurtis 635 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 I happen to adore my G1 toys; for they are cute as a button, especially the babies! They're defiantly better then the G4 toys that have an acre of forehead and giant eyes were their cheeks should be. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monotone 101 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 I think because of the human like eyes and the somewhat realistic horse head, they start to cross uncanny valley territory. It's realistic enough to know what it is trying to represent, yet it doesn't quite get there, causing many people (including me) to be a tad unsettled. Kind of like puppets and Victorian china dolls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think? And you're honestly saying that the G4 toys look less creepy? At least the G1 toys Looked like the ponies on the show! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dainbow Rash 80 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 The eyes on the G1 toys are what freak me out the most. I find the G1 toys very unsettling lol... *Goes to look at totally normal and not creepy G4 with eyes the size of its face* 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rarity Paige Belle 1,852 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 Here we go again! Hatred of G1! This is what pisses me off about the Brony fandom, you guys have no respect for the earlier gens. Fine, you don't have to like G1-3.5, but stop bitching about it! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fine, you don't have to like G1-3.5, but stop bitching about it! Tell me about it! They're always acting like FiM is the "holy grail" of My Little pony, and the rest of the gens are just pure dirt when compared to FiM. It's like there is nothing wrong with FiM but so many things wrong with the previous gens to them! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fine, you don't have to like G1-3.5, but stop bitching about it! Took the words out of my mouth. Though, G3 gets the most hate out of any MLP generation, yet I loved G3. I collected the all ponies and had the DS games, and of course Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo were my favorites! I loved Pinkie Pie and Minty too, but in G3.5 they took away Minty 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like there is nothing wrong with FiM but so many things wrong with the previous gens to them! Also, without the previous generations, we wouldn't have FiM. At least be thankful that the previous generations were there to build up to FiM, but NOO!
