Interesting, I had no idea. I thought they were “one size fits all” style instruments.
I think a lot of people have that same impression, to be honest. I only really know all this myself because I played alto (by far the most commonly used version) for several years, and knew someone who had the (slightly larger) tenor.
 
Also interesting to note, while only a few varieties are in common use today, the creator of the instrument originally patented 14 versions, some of which are as big as (or bigger than) a person.

Either it’s a very small sax, or hippogriffs are huge compared to humans.
Saxophones actually have a variety of sizes, depending on the register. The sopranissimo, sopranino, and soprano sax are all fairly small instruments, compared to the (more well known) alto, tenor, and baritone variants.

Nice to see November Rain looking happy. After his appearences in 2,4,6 Great and Student Counsel it seemed like his role was to be sad/concerned pony.
