Big Macintosh is a member of the Apple Family and Applejack's older brother. He was first seen in episode 1 during the Apple family reunion. He didn't speak until episode 4, Applebuck Season. Big Macintosh is one of the recurring members of the Apple family.

Personality

Big Macintosh is shown to have a rather calm and easy-going demeanor to contrast with his sister Applejack's more stubborn attitude. He seems to be a pony of few words and like the rest of his family he speaks with a southern accent. He seems to have a practical sort of wisdom, but tends not to share it if a simple "eeyup" will suffice.

History

Big Macintosh was first seen during the Apple family reunion when Twilight Sparkle first arrived into Ponyville. Although he was mentioned by name and referred to in following episodes he didn't speak until in the episode Applebuck Season.

In Applebuck Season, he was shown to have sustained some form of injury which made him unable to help with the annual apple harvesting. It is unknown as to how exactly he got this injury.

Trivia

  • While it's common for fans to shorten his name to "Big Mac", he is only ever referred to as "Big Macintosh" in the series proper, possibly due to name licensing issues.
  • While not a reference to Apple Macintosh computers, both Pony and computer's names come from the same source, a type of common apple.
