But Minty isn’t in that.

If you look at the toys, G3.5’s look just like G4—just like G4.5’s look just G5. Also, in both mid-generations, the animation seems to look more like the toys than either of the main generations, possibly because Hasbro wants people to get used to the new look of the franchise. Internally, the new generations are primarily used as a distinction between the toy lines.
The shows are secondary to Hasbro. So the mid-generations usually match the look of the upcoming generation but largely featuring characters from the previous generation.
Makes me wonder if there’s going to be a G5.5 this time around. Usually the mid-generations come so that there’s not a huge gap in media being released, but it sounds like we’ve got TWO MORE FUCKING YEARS of this drought. Maybe that was misreported. Maybe that’s the time it will be before G6 but maybe we really will get G5.5 before then.
I wonder what the new toys will look like. Hopefully we get a return to the pretty toys of G1 and 3, or possibly even something like G2! G4’s toys were always pretty lame but I would call them tolerable. G5’s toys are HORRIBLE!!! Even though G4.5’s series is based on those toys for their art style, it managed to look good in drawing form. The actual toys? HIDEOUS!!!
