A Minor Observation · 9:20am Nov 28th, 2013
I'm sure I wasn't the only one looking for it. It was difficult to be sure while watching the episode, and surprisingly hard to find screencaps good for comparison, but...
... I'm reasonably sure that Princess Twilight is now about half an ear taller than the other standard ponies.
Make of it what you will.
... It's very slight, but I think you may be right. She does seem slightly taller in these images, the latter two especially.

There was a scene with Rarity that I thought showed it a lot clearer while watching, but I couldn't find any screenshots of it. I never noticed before how much screentime they all spend bobbing and ducking their heads!

"Taking off your hat wouldn't hurt either. And Pinkie, this'd be a lot easier with your mane deflated."
1549241 I don't think we'd be able to appropriately dose Pinkie without killing her.

And deliberately missing a party to disappoint her would just be too risky to contemplate.
1549255 Much too risky...

Searched "pinkie pie attack", came up with this.

Yah this is already known.
What I'd like to know is when Celestia and Luna wield the elements against Discord in the flashback which elements do each use?

I was above reasonably confident that I couldn't be anything like the first to observe it, but what the heck.
DAMN that's a good one. I don't think I'm quite obsessive enough to rummage through trying to match colors, but SOMEONE out there must be on it already...
1549276 Well I know celestia had the element of Magic as it's got that different shape to it.

Heh, that's at least one that's clear. Justifications for any possible distribution of the others (based just on virtues, without trying to check against the show) are easily made, I should think.
Old news. Princess Twilight has been taller the whole time.

Between the size of Mane 6 and that of Shining and Cadance.

By the looks of it Luna gets loyalty, honesty and laughter and Celestia get's magic, kindness and generosity.

Keen observations all around. This actually kind of fits their characters to some extent, as well (though not perfectly).
