"Lanky" Male Ponies

[Naught Important 433]

I've seen enough of these "lanky ponies" to be curious about them.

You know, the kind of body type that Flim and Flam, Cheese Sandwich, Trenderhoof, and the new guy Toe-Tapper have.

 

Examples if you still don't know what I mean:

 

Cheese Sandwich

Flim-Flam Bothers

 

I don't know if I'm just being a slowpoke here and information on what this is has already been provided, but I really do like these guys.

I feel like, under the artstyle of the show, the "lanky" ponies look pretty nice.

They might even be horses for all I know.

Or they could just be another basic kind of pony that has no real significance at all.

 

What do you think about them?

[~XCOLIDE~ 40]

i think ponies come in alot of shapes and sizes just as we do

 

although i see what your saying i also have wondered why they have them like that is it supose to protray something?

[Scootalove 10,685]

They have different designs so they amaze me in more ways than one, and I think lanky ponies are pretty cool.

[Motion Spark 7,807]

actually stallions have a wide variety of designs than mares, however Equestria is more populated by mares. hmmmm

Well, we do need variety in different pony designs, and I find them great as well.

 

Those lanky legs are unique.

[Motion Spark 7,807]

let's the see the metrics.

 

For mares, we have the regular body type (like Pinkie), the fat (Mrs. Cake), horse (Celestia), small horse (Luna and Cadence), alicorn pony (Twilight) and the extra fat (the other female pony that singed in Filli Vanilli)

 

as for stallions, we have the regular stallion body (Dr Whooves), strong stallion with hard hooves (Big Mac), the Shinning armor style, the muscled type (the stallions that were dancing in at the gala song when Fluttershy was singing and several of Applejack male relatives have this body types), in Sweetie Belle's song about Cherilee we've seen more stallion types, the lanky ones of course, prince blueeblood type too (I think Fancy Pants have this same bodytype), royal guards bodytype, and the list goes on and on

Ahh the ponies with the much longer nuzzles. I believe Mr. Cake also has a similar nuzzle shape. I do like zhe variety of pony bodies we have.

 

Cheese's nuzzle doesn't look "lanky" to me. Looks more like a mare's nose with a stallion's more square head (not as round as a mare's).

yhea your wright ...but thats the reason i said some variety not just variety

One of the things I actually liked about Filli Vanilli was the greater variety of body types shown.  I hope we see more bulky, lanky, and chubby characters.  It makes the world feel more real.

[ShadOBabe 18,986]

I think they're just normal ponies with different body types.

When the show first started they didn't have much variety because it was cheaper and faster to just have two different body types, male and female, and give them different colors and hair. But as the show production got more complicated and the quality got better, they started adding more variety.

 

Plus I thing the resident of "Saddle Arabia" are suppose to be regular horses.

The two delegates where only slightly shorter than Celestia.

[Grumpy Enchantress 586]

They need Steve Merchant to guest star on the show.

I've noticed this season, particularly in the last few episodes, the new stallion characters we've been introduced to all have the same new body type. Just something I thought I'd point out and see if anyone else noticed it, and if you have anything to say about it.

 

 

 

[yeet 2,026]

They all have short tails and with the exception of Cheese short manes.

[XxConfusedUnicornxX 834]

OMG i never noticed until you pointed it out! O_O

[Hibiscus Bloom 91]

I noticed it as well. It's... ok. I really just preferred the buffer body type with the squared muzzles. These ones just look too square and thin as well.

[Totally Ducklett 181]

Remember in Pinkie Apple Pie when slenderman could be seen for a brief second?

 

He's making his MLP debut as a good guy soon.

 

Oh great, now I've freaked myself out...

[Malinter 3,064]

Mac-types are much better XD

[Mr F 1,522]

Mac-types are much better XD

I think the newest ones present the personality better. The ones with the Mac-like body shape are usually more masculine.

(for example the guards.)

[ScarfaceOne 263]

That means Slendermane will definitely have more cameos this season!!!!

[UserNotFound 964]

Eh they are ok... But I like the body type of shining armor - doctor Whooves (and other BG stallions) - Big Mac etc... I think these look a lot more... Cartoony

[ReverseFaller 2,483]

Yeah, I noticed this as well.

 

I like the new body types. It's nice to have some variety between the stallions, so they don't all look alike.

Hay there, @@Aerial~Shot. Since your thread is very similar to one already available, I've merged yours into it. Just a little heads-up. Have fun discussing!

[ShadOBabe 18,986]

 

 

and the extra fat (the other female pony that singed in Filli Vanilli)

 

"Extra fat"? She uses the same model as Mrs. Cake!!
