The complaint of EQG Legs- it could be worse

Ever since Equestria Girls toys have come out, I feel like people ave been complaining about the length of the legs...and especially Principal Celestia's.

While I feel it may have been a valid complaint back in the day, I honestly can say that I'm proud that Hasbro didn't reuse and re-purpose their toys, like they did with re-purposing Starlily the Unicorn from their FurReal Friends IP into the "My Little Pony The Movie: My Magical Princess Twilight Sparkle. Had Hasbro chosen to reuse an old IP base for their Celestia EG toys, I suspect it could've been a repurposed "Leggy" doll, which was from 1972- 73.

So yeah, I'm super glad Hasbro didn't go that route with Principal Celestia, because those legs are horrifying, and absolute nightmare fuel.

That's slightly terrifying...

Anyways, I'll be honest; I never had too much of a problem with the leg length of the EQG characters. Yes, they kinda exaggerated, but exaggerated features are used on about pretty much every animated character, really. :)

Meh, I have more a problem with some of the character designs in FiM than I do than the ones in EQG.  (Also their legs never really bothered me all that much to be honest.)

For instance just look at Princess Cadence and Fleur De Lis and try to tell me with a straight face that they look healthy and not all creepily thin.

I mean people have loved to give EQG slack for their character designs be too thin, but I haven't really seen many if anyone at all criticize these two from FiM for being guilty of the same thing.

In fact I would even go as far as to say that Dean Cadence from EQG has a better design than Princess Cadence, if only due to not looking like she starves herself.
