Like the ones on the far right I feel would work if they were supposed to be aliens or have some other full science fiction origin (I think PPGZ's powers still come from space? I don't quite remember. The girls themselves are still not aliens, though).
The three on the top would work if the source of their power was some sort of magic, like some fairy or something (or if they were fairies themselves).
The ones at the center and bottom of the same page look like they would be used more for a slice-of-life type of thing. They would also probably spend much more time in school.
On the left page, the ones at the bottom and top left look like would be more focused on fashion and would probably have more talk about boys and shit.
I don't quite know what to thing of the ones with the yellow scarves or whatever those are. They also look like they would be aliens, but not as focused on science fiction as the ones to the far right with those antennas (Bubbles and Buttercup's hair, Blossom's ribbon). I'm not sure, though. Also, I JUST noticed that both designs I called aliens have yellow scarves, I don't know if that's a coincidence or what.
In the end they went full mahou shoujo on them, which in my opinion is less interesting than what I think we would have had with any of the designs on the right page. Still better than the whole "Let's talk about fashion and boys" thing, which if I remember correctly wasn't very much the focus of PPGZ.
