This is kinda mean but....

Don't like male ponies with facial hair, also I think with G5 they're trying to give them more human like heads which I'm not keen on either.
Sometimes Alphabittle seemed okay-ish to me but other times when he's propped up against the counter and posed more human-like he then loses pretty much any indication that he is a horse. He just looks like a creature, like a dinosaur/monster/humanoid.

Argyle also looks very weird in close-ups. Once his four-legged horse body is out of frame it's like...what are you? Because your human face and lack of mane hairline definitely doesn't point to equine. The ponytail that makes especially obvious that the hairline is wrong does bother me a lot. This was a problem on a lot of ponies though, not just the boys.

I WANT to like them, I promise! And I do like them in most other ways. I just wish the designers did a bit more research on the animals they were creating. I know G4 made a lot of exceptions, but when you make the switch to CGI it becomes much more obvious and more leaning on uncanny valley.

i don't think i'll ever get over G5 Alphabittle- they ruined my G3 baby :shock:

I truly hate G5 as well and it's a shame because my favorite kind of pony has moon/star themes and quite a few G5 find under that category but they are just so horribly unappealing to me that I cannot like them, at all. If they were redone in G3, I would love most of them.

I...didn't know male ponies with facial hair were even a thing, I looked them up...the stuff of nightmares right there. As a kid, I thought all ponies were male (except for Bride, Sweetheart Sisters and a few others) and to this day, I still do so...which, somehow, makes this even weirder.

I collect Living Dead Dolls and they are literally zombie/horror themed and none is half as creepy as...that.

I dunno, whichever one of the Flim Flam brothers has the little mustache doesn’t look bad to me

G1 Up Up Away. Not a big fan of Love Melody either.

Shady (both SS and Euro Shsdy) and especially BBE Baby Shady are kinda hideous, but I still kinda love them.

Drink'n'wet Babies. Why?!
 
I'm not a fan of the Oshare and Kawaii ponies. Also Rocking Beat set just so much clashing of color but not in a goodway.

I'd almost forgotten about them, even though I own some!

I don't get them either, it's particularly weird as they are quite bigger than Newborn Ponies so it seems to make even less sense.

I usually love ponies with really strong coloring but this one is not a fave of mine either.
