A mashup of various images to prove an anon’s claim that ponies are of short stature. Contains leaked DHX assets, primarily the height comparison sheet with Twilight and Sci-Twi.
@Midnox
Taking off the heels and accounting for models and screenshots putting the base EG girls at 4.4 heads tall, it works out to Twilight being about 5’2.5, close to the 5’3 I got from screencap analysis.
My issue is that it puts ponies, base mares being 2.5 heads tall, at 2’11.5 head height (take off ear height), while analysis put them at 3’3. Any ways this can be reconciled other than close enough/EG humans being taller than normal ones?
@Jormungandr
What size are real life ponies in comparison? (Note they’re measured from the shoulder which is very different than how MLP ponies are measured here.)

Those stampeding mares in C&D are the Toon actors who played the characters on the show. That just means the G4 humanoid Toon actors are also short, and the production team scaled the sets to fit them.
There’s also no evidence the G1 and G4 ponies’ actors were the same size. The realistic human Toons Megan, Danny, and that king were probably human-sized like Jessica Rabbit or Cruella DeVille, while the Equestria Girls have the proportions of a Betty Boop. I’d expect Capper’s actor’s height to be roughly that of Daffy Duck.
