Description
Spike: I AM FIRE, I AM DEATH! No wait, that doesn’t sound good enough. Um…Oh! I AM SPIKEZILLA! HEAR ME ROAR! No, that’s still too lame. Uh, how about DISHONOR ON YOU! DISHONOR ON YOUR FRIENDS! No, no! that’s too Chinese. Umm…maybe–
Shining Armor: Knock it off, big guy! I’m pretty sure our enemies won’t bother to hear your one-liner.

Considering that Earth dragons wouldn’t fly, they wouldn’t cover as much ground and would most likely be digging caves and such for gemstones, thus they wouldn’t travel above ground very often if at all and even if they were near a town, would be so far underground that the town may only feel rumbling now and then.
@Swashbucklist
I’m with you on that. If every character got to do anything at any point, the whole cast would be uber powerful alicorns by this point.
Besides, Spike has no desire for flying; even his “greatest dream” was to just be big, strong, and a capable handsome fighter.
Apply whatever reasoning you want. I prefer characters with limitations.
Because given how not-rare the winged ones are, if the other two existed, wouldn’t we see more of them by now?
There are Pegasai, unicorns, and earth ponies.
Why can’t their be winged dragons, earth drakes and sea dragons?
We already have Steven Magnet (though some call him a “sea monster”)
They probably don’t have an official “Adult spike” design made at this point, so the toy makers kind of have to make due with what they have from secret of my excess.
The show writers aren’t going to design a new “Real adult” form for the toy makers and they won’t let the comic staff due that either, since they’d be painting themselves into a corner if they ever decided to do a plotline with him aging into his “true” form at a later date, yeah?
And, of course depending on what the show’s canon aging speed is for dragons, may take decades to hundreds of years. And by then everyone in the show except Celestia and Luna will be long dead.
On both occasions he was speed-grown from a young age. When he grows up naturally, I’ll bet he will look as well-formed as the show’s other dragons. Actually, since he was educated, and wasn’t raised in a barbaric society, he may even more refined.
I don’t see how that could be any more natural.
Personally, I think Spikezilla isn’t truly what adult Spike would naturally look like [hence why I disagree that it should be tagged as adult/older Spike]; he was greed-accelerated from a juvenile to an adult form unnaturally and super-fast…hence why he lacks wings but still has baby-fat in his face.
Similar to how when it happened to him as a newborn hatchling, he looked like a sauropod~
Real talk: You’re absolutely right. For as much as this show gets right design-wise, boy howdy does it get adult Spike/Spikezilla wrong. I don’t use this word often, but he looks retarded. Like straight up. And not like good retarded, like Derpy.
None taken.
It’s from the show too.
your current filter.(comment is directed at the action figure the art this based off of, no offense to whoever drew this. your depiction looks fine.)
