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.
