    Default Oddball: Truescale Astartes?

    Classically there has been some disagreement as to how tall a space marine stands (on average), depending on medium, or author at the time. Does this graphic define GW's official standpoint?

    Average height should be 7.5ft to 8ft. Primarchs averaged 8ft to 9ft, with Magnus topping out at 10ft.

    That is a copy of the 'compare your height to the Space Marine' poster outside of the gaming hall at Warhammer world. But of course why would GW know the height of their flagship product in fluff terms?

    Of course the first thing that I think is "I wonder how much, dollar and model count, that you could squeak into 7 ft?" I wonder what the sizes on some of those web only boxes are?

    7 feet of Rats? Careful, that way leads to misery and madness! At least now the tails are molded on the model vs. separate pieces.
