Celestial Panzerhund 289 April 12, 2013 Share April 12, 2013 Who else notices that spike seems to have the same colors as barney? I haven't thought of it until my friends at school sang the 'I love you'song. (Very weird friends) Who else noticed this? Sharp as a Blade. Swift as an Arrow. Instincts of a Wolf.

Tual 152 April 12, 2013 Share April 12, 2013 (edited) Well, Spike's colours are very reminiscent to the Gen 1 Spike's. This is probably due to the fact that Lauren Faust wanted the My little Pony Friendship is Magic to be a bit of a reboot to the original Generation 1 pony series. (You remember the first concept art she made? With the Gen 1 redesigns? :U ) Edited April 12, 2013 by Tual 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugar Cube 4,843 April 12, 2013 Share April 12, 2013 (edited) I think it's just a common color scheme used for dragon characters. Spike reminds me a lot of Icarus, a very minor dragon character from the Dragon Ball series: FUN FACT: Cathy Weseluck who voices Spike, also voiced Icarus in the 1997 and 1998 versions of Dragon Ball Z: Tree of Might.

Celestial Panzerhund 289 April 12, 2013 Author Share April 12, 2013 So green and purple are the most common colors for a cartoon dragon? Is that suppose to make them not look as mean or bad like all the other colors? Sharp as a Blade. Swift as an Arrow. Instincts of a Wolf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunny Fox 5,952 April 12, 2013 Share April 12, 2013 Barney isn't a dragon, people. He's a big purple dinosaur. I guess the green part could be a reptile reference, green can be associated with snakes and such. As for the purple, I really have no idea. However, I do like green and purple, either separately or together. 1 Happy minion of The Fabulous One!

Betez 1,734 April 12, 2013 Share April 12, 2013 I guess they do kinda look alike, but only the colors. Other than that, not so much. Spike's a dragon, and Barney's a Dinosaur, so that's why I don't really think they look that alike.

Darker 1,352 August 25, 2014 Share August 25, 2014 It would be more logical to compare Barney to the 60s and 70s Godzilla than to Spike, honestly.
