I can't believe that I am actually saying this, but I really love these two sets. I had to order them online from the UK. Theres just something about them. I really don't care all that much for the new IMP but this set and maybe a few of the ocean ones are really cool to me. Maybe its the fact that these animals were never issued so I'm not comparing them with the originals like the dogs, cats, etc. And my favorites are the mommy and baby sets. Anyway just wanted to share. I'll post photos once they come if anyone is interested.  Attachment DeletedAttachment Deleted |

Wow...those are awesome...Pegasi and Griffins, just like on MLP. xD I didn't know they were making mythical families. :0
I like the G2 IMPs, just not as much as the originals. (They've added some rare and unusual breeds that weren't in the "G1" 90s line, but I can't help feeling that those would've looked better--and in some cases more identifiable--in the original style.) The puppies and ocean critters are my favorite divisions.

They have arrived! I'm so happy with them. I want to take some photos before opening them. I imagined them bigger but they are similar in size to the original IMP line! They will fit right in I especially love the Griffen family. And they each come with a little storybook. I got them from Amazon uk. They weren't too expensive but shipping was a little pricey, but still I thought it was a good early birthday gift to myself (and a reminder that I will never truly "grow up").  Attachment Deleted |

Also for those interested, these are listed as series 1 Enchanted Valley Animals Families along with a Golden Retriever and Alaskan Malamute Mum and Babies sets. There are also 24 additional animals to collect in this series including a unicorn, fairy and hedgehog. One of the things I dislike about the new generation of LPS is the huge heads, which I think is also part of the reason I'm not into the IMP new edition. But most of these seem to be proportionate. But maybe thats just me since both seem to be very appealing at this time.

Awww, they're even cuter than they looked before! Especially the little griffin babies, yeah. Love the colors of the Pegasi as well; they remind me of Fantasia. I don't get the disproportionate, giant-head trend either.  The new LPS is the epitome of it; those are engineered not to be able to stand, in my experience. One of my new PiMPs has the same problem and literally cannot stand without being up against a friend. xD But I'm liking this inclusion of mythical and "fairy garden" creatures. Yay for magic! |
