and this
and even this
More seriously, though, Izzy and Sunny seem to be further away from the camera here, which can lead to all kinds of shenanigans regarding size.
Edited
Agreed. But pones will still always be little pones
A tennis ball is a relatively simple model that they could make relatively quickly. The reason why the ball is the size X and Izzy is the size Y is because the ball of this size looks right on the horn. I find it most likely that the animators just scale objects relatively to each other based on concept art, not real-life measurements.
that episode that has the 8 foot candy cane is clearly canon
Sure, but not their definition of “foot”; Occam and all that, but they could still technically be pretty much any size.
I know what you’re referring to, and this is still way too big. They’re not little ponies and to objectively state that this is acceptable is heretical.
that episode that has the 8 foot candy cane is clearly canon, and this link clearly shows their true size
@Shimmering Spectacle
this is based from that candy cane i mentioned.
and another thing, apples can sometimes very in size.
I remember there being a calc using apples from way back in the early days that put them at about 4 foot plus. And I’m sorry but no. Those are not little ponies.
g4 had bigger ponies, according to an 8 foot candy cane
Why won’t you?
The name my LITTLE pony makes more sense now.
It’s like the ponies get smaller each generation. These ponies are not ponies, they are miniature horses, which are smaller than ponies. The G4 ponies were (according to various people’s calculations) 4ish feet tall at the top of the head, and these tiny, tiny things are half that height. So smol!

Yup never really ends, like how I will always adore and worship Twi. Lmao. XD
It’s wild to me to see the cycle starting anew. The speculation, the analysis, the memes. The ride truly never ends.
Yeah, there is a balance between the two and sometimes it’s a tough decision to make. XD
Edited
Same! I love analysis like this, even if I don’t necessarily believe it.
If I had to guess, the animators either didn’t think through the scaling, or thought it through, but abandoned it in favor of visual clarity. The ball is much more impactful and amusing at that size. I know Pixar does that kind of thing all the time. The balloon cluster in Up is way to small to lift a house, but they made it the right size, and you cold barely see the house in comparison. Artistic vision wins over physics.
They’re not just little. They’re smol.
/) :D
But that doesn’t make them as small as dog and cat.
the bigger horse is 2.1 meters tall, the smaller one is .44 meters
