Akuma's official height of 5'10" would make him 17 4/8. That's an abysmal difference.

Ryu is 5'9" so he should 17 1/4. So 16 3/8 is a bit under. But not much.

Okay, thanks guys. Now we're talking.

So, Akuma is ~1:4.029.

Ryu is ~1:4.214

A far cry from 1:4.5, let alone 1:5.

Those two stand straight and are flat-footed, so they are easy to measure, but did you mean Akuma's hair line, or to the tip of his front hair, strife, for the 17 3/8?

If you haven't thought of this yet, I might suggest using a string, placing it along the character's side, from heel (shoes are fine as that's negligible) to the head (or where you can estimate the top of the head is, for big hair characters, like Akuma, Blanka, etc.), bending it as you go. Then simply measure the string. This will definitely help with squatting characters.

Anyone willing/able to do the others? Please post. I'd appreciate it.

I went to the top of the front hair zen.

I don't have any other older pieces other than sagat but i assumed you didn't need that one.

I only have my Gouken v Akuma dio and Akuma bust out right now, so if you're willing and able to measure Sagat, please do.

Sagat stands at 20" tall but as you know he has the slightly bent knees. Using the string method he comes out at 22".
I believe he's listed at 7'4" which makes him pretty right on.
Keep in mind these may have a small variance to perfection as i had to do a bit of eye balling.

Yeah, and he is hunched slightly as well. 2" difference surprises me though. Thanks for taking the time!

So, Sagat is ~1:4.

Take that, Ultra!

I know some of the other statues deviate more than these three, but Jopp seems right on, and internet tales of this line being grossly undersized seem greatly exaggerated.

I errored a bit on sagat. Remeasurements he is slightly undersized at roughly 21", give or take a bit. My mistake.

Haha, no problem.

Ok, Sagat is ~1:4.190

Still pretty darn accurate.
