Questions on Mario: How Big is Queen Bee (Honey Queen)?

Being introduced in Super Mario Galaxy (2007), Queen Bee was shown as a giant bee who had "the most furious itches". In order to win the level, you needed to fix these itches by collecting the stars off her body while she was screaming weird comments.

 

The Small bee is actually Mario collecting Stars.

 

She was re-introduced in Mario Kart 7 as a playable character for the first time, and she was oddly only a little bigger than Mario...

So how could Honey Queen Be about two-hundred times the size of Mario at first, then shrink to about one-and-a-fourth the size of him?

 

According to her Physical Appearance on Super Mario Wiki, she's about ten times the size of a normal bee. Here's my comparison:



 

 

I think I was lied to...

Well, that was a wiki, so we can't really trust them. We should find a source we can trust more.

 

"Honey Queen is the new name being given to the Queen Bee character who first made her debut in 2007's Super Mario Galaxy for the Wii. Her body's been shrunken down considerably to be able to fit inside a kart, as in her prior appearances she was so enormous that Mario could crawl around on her body to nab some goodies – perhaps this is why she's a heavyweight racer? You unlock her by getting first in the Banana Cup 150cc."

 

I got this information from IGN.com, which is only editable to the actual publishers. It already talks about how her model was shrunken to fit in a car, but how is she still a heavyweight? if she was already shrunken, her original body weight would already be the weight of a large racer, so how does her weight not shrink as well?

 

Well, I guess I'll never know how big Queen Bee really is. Try to do your own information to figure out and post it in the comments! I might make a future post updating this! I'm also going to keep looking to find out her real size/weight.

 

In the meantime, keep checking my blog for more awesome posts about Mario!
