Denim and Diamonds - Size Discrepancy

As I put my new pair on the shelf, I noticed a significant size discrepancy between the two new ones and my four others.
 They are much larger than their older counterparts.

Are the older ones shrinkies? Maybe. But their size is so uniform, and I am not sure shrinkage would do that. I would think there would be some variation in their sizes.

I put a post on Blab asking if anyone else had a similar experience with their Denim and Diamonds. There has been some who feel that this is a part of the normal Breyer aging process, but others, like me, feel it is too uniform to be attributed to that.

A hobbyist who goes by Weegie (don't know her real name) posted this picture of her Shetland Ponies.
She has some that are different in size, others who are not.

The jury is still out, but I am sticking with my gut feeling that there is more than shrinking going on here.
