[Archive] Anyone know how tall this is?

Dînadan:

Anyone know how large Reaper minis’ Golden Guardian mini is? (link)

If it’s big enough I think it could make a good alternative to K’daii Fireborn. I’ve tried googling for an answer but can’t find one, and unlike other pics on the reaper site, there aren’t any of the size markings on the side of the pic to show the size.  So, anyone know the answer?

Xx9millxX:

Sorry I can’t help you out on your question but I agree with you… There are some really cool reaper minis which would make great kdaii ( destroyer especially) but many of them do not tell you how big they are … I feel like they’re probably not big enough to be a destroyer though… But possibly a fire born alternative

Fuggit Khan:

Perhaps the best way to figure it out is to look at the base itself…if that’s a standard 20mm base then the figure itself from head to toe appears to be about 36mm tall. Just a guess though…

Dînadan:

Unfortunately there’s no way to tell the base size as none is listed :/. Using your method, if it’s on a 25mm base, then it looks to be about 2" tall. If it’s on a 50mm base then it’d be closer to 4". Dunno why but I have a hunch it’s more likely to be a 25mm base than a 50mm base.

May be best to try emailing reaper and see if I can get an answer that way.

The height of the base suggests it is a 20mm base. The larger bases have a much larger width to height ratio.

:hat off

Now you mention it, that seems like obvious observation, don't know why I didn't think of it before (although it does explain why my hunch was saying 25mm lol).

cornixt:

It doesn’t look like a regular slottabase though, so there is a chance that it is a custom base that is thicker than normal. You could do an image search for the model and see if anyone has photos of it next to miniatures of a known size.

Dînadan:

Image search was the first thing I tried, only comes up with the image on the reaper site and pics of other stuff without the mini in question in sight :(.

Twisted Dwarf:

Price suggests it’s on a 25mm if it was on a 40 the model would be larger and more expensive.

Dînadan:

E-mailed Reaper and had a reply back - it’s 42mm tall.

May be a tad short if used straight out of the box, but shouldn’t be too hard to convert into something taller, especially if put on a subtle scenic base :slight_smile:
