A friend and I were bored today so we started setting up battle scenes on our dining room tables and txting pictures to each other. I set up a mix of movie, Unicron Trilogy, Animated, and Classics figures (Continuity be damned!) and after second inspection noticed that Autobot deluxe figures from all lines seem to be larger than Decepticons from the same line. I assume this has to do with package size and alt modes, but even car Decepticons are smaller than Car Autobots. Has anyone else noticed this? I know its an odd (maybe even dumb) thing to notice, but I like my Decepticons to be larger, while half of my Deluxe Autobots are the size of Voyager Lugnut (who i admit is a tiny voyager thanks to being packaged in alt mode with limited box size). Oh well...the battle @ Dining room table still looks awesome until my fiance gets home and makes me clean it up lol. Happy Saturday!
I have noticed this too. The Classics Seeker mold is much smaller in robot mode than most others. I wish that Starscream could be at least as tall as the average Deluxe Autobot, if not a little taller. I also want my Decepticons to be slightly larger than my Autobots. It helps them seem more menacing.
