    Maybe have Prime and Megs slightly smaller, but I do agree the authority figures should be taller than the peons.

    Just to not agree, I... don't agree. It would also be immensely cool if, fitting the alt mode scale differences, the seekers were closer to Jetfire's size, while their commanders stayed the same size as in the cartoon. Sort of like hulking brute grunts. Starscream's personality would need tweaking, I guess, but I sometimes thought about it when I was Livin In the Eighties.

    brah...

    I like the seekers are smaller then the leaders. Screamer aint as big as Megatron or Ops and neither would Soundwave be if he was made.Grimlock on the other hand is about OPs size.

    Soundwave is usually depicted as being the same size as Megatron:

    Starscream was sometimes about a head shorter than Megatron.

    and other times about the same size.

    Just don't post any screen caps from Five Faces of Death, where Rumble and Soundwave are the same size.

    Maybe the future releases will be SS size....and only Prime and Megs will be equal in size...?

    But I do like prime as he is. Thats what kinda made me buy him was knowing that he was large and in charge, and not a small toy.

    size consistencies are expected in the cartoon to fit em on the screen.

    what you really need is the scale sheet from IDWs TF the ark book.

    I think Prime came out perfect even at the size. There is no floppiness, and it fits together great. Now Megatron on the other hand would have benefited from the smaller size, his bulk is not equally distributed in robot mode and he looks thin and weak compared to Prime. So if it would have made Megatron better I could take Prime being smaller too.

    I completely agree with the OP. If Prime and Megs were an inch shorter they'd be perfectly in scale with Screamer and the Alts/BT.
