ggg-2 3,552 August 17, 2016 Share August 17, 2016 Compare EQG Big Mac to his canon counterpart. Considering Bulk, they're perfectly capable of doing muscular characters. Don't be a nerd. Join the herd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unikitty 1,212 August 17, 2016 Share August 17, 2016 (edited) We can't forget that Snowflake(Bulk Biceps) is a satirical character in design. He's supposed to represent over-muscularity rather than just the idea of physical strength. Big Mac shouldn't be seen as a really buff character, rather one who represents general fitness. In regards to his EqG form, it's probably just a case of not wanting a student being awkwardly muscular - except, again in the case where it's used for satirical purposes, such as Snowflake's EqG depiction.

Castle Bleck 19,334 August 17, 2016 Share August 17, 2016 He's still noticeably bulkier than the average EQG male, and he's still most likely strong AF. 2 By Emerald.↑ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmarston1 5,959 August 17, 2016 Share August 17, 2016 (edited) Because giving him a design similar to Bulk Biceps would be unappealing. Edited August 17, 2016 by cmarston1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sceethe 704 August 17, 2016 Share August 17, 2016 because he is a farmer dude, going for actual strength over muscles who just look good. check out strongmen and compare them to body builders:one looks powerful,the other one actually is 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealityPublishing 323 August 18, 2016 Share August 18, 2016 Because any bigger, and he'd get a lawsuit from Bulk Biceps and Pinkie Prime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlikeable Pony 2,698 August 19, 2016 Share August 19, 2016 Because giving him a design similar to Bulk Biceps would be unappealing. I gotta second this. Everytime I see bulk on screen, its like a left 4 dead Tank wondered onto the set. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choros Isorropai 409 August 19, 2016 Share August 19, 2016 big mac is visualy taller than most other ponies, but i think they wanted him to look like a clidsdale... bulk biceps....well the name should be a give away... OC: https://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/choros-isorropai-r9669 Blog: https://mlpforums.com/blog/3158-poetry-simply-that/ The unasked questions are what bother me, not the answers. The answers give me clarity. Silence is in its self an answer, so ask! To not ask is to deny the existence of said question, and leaves you with just "what if".

Grateful Crypty 4,783 August 19, 2016 Share August 19, 2016 (edited) Idunno. I think he's pretty tall and wide in shoulders.And I can's say that he is much bigger than other ponies for real. Edited August 19, 2016 by Crypty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cider float 2,537 August 19, 2016 Share August 19, 2016 Because he's a bishounen and bishounen aren't supposed to bulky. In a way to appeal to a female audience. http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Bishonen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LyricaDreamy 43 August 21, 2016 Share August 21, 2016 Isnt Bulk biceps a teenager? How did he get such a muscular body? Did he hit puberty earlier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megas 27,577 August 21, 2016 Share August 21, 2016 Because giving him a design similar to Bulk Biceps would be unappealing. Making him muscular doesn't necessarily mean making him look like Bulk. Like, Bulk is pretty ugly. But Big Mac can look muscular and look good doing it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why call him Snowflake? I realize that was a fandom nickname once upon a time, but it's been *YEARS* since we learned his canon name, long before I joined the fandom. I went a long time without ever learning that he *had* a fandom nickname. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iggy Loo Loo 11 August 22, 2016 Share August 22, 2016 I agree with the people who said he's teenager in the Equestria Girls movies, so he might be smaller since he's younger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unikitty 1,212 August 25, 2016 Share August 25, 2016 Why call him Snowflake? I realize that was a fandom nickname once upon a time, but it's been *YEARS* since we learned his canon name, long before I joined the fandom. I went a long time without ever learning that he *had* a fandom nickname. No reason in particular. I first knew him as Snowflake and though I accept his canon name, Bulk Biceps, I've always just preferred to called him by his fan name. I found it funny when it first came out and it just stuck.

Not_active 732 August 25, 2016 Share August 25, 2016 Because Big Mac is a natural and healthy farmer, and therefore normal looking. Bulk Biceps(or Roid Rage as I prefer to call him) is probably injecting trenbolone on a daily basis.

Luminance 2,186 August 26, 2016 Share August 26, 2016 Pony puberty starts sooner that Human puberty I suppose. EQG Big Mac must be still going through it while Pony Big Mac is already fully grown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil_Emperor 176 August 29, 2016 Share August 29, 2016 Because he's a Human? He's also not an adult, so he may have more growing for all we know. The Human world is not Equestria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cider float 2,537 August 30, 2016 Share August 30, 2016 I've never noticed Big Mac significantly bigger than other stallions. When I compared him to Braeburn not much difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
