Kup (a pickup truck) and Blitzwing (military aircraft and a tank) are slightly shorter than cars like Jazz (32 feet tall) and Arcee (33 feet tall). Centurion (a doppleganger of Bumblebee) is 26 feet tall, and if he is the same height as Bumblebee, that paints a startling light on the size of Minibots in the IDW universe. Predaking and Raiden are as tall as Devastator.įor the most part, these guys are at a smaller scale than other continuities.Īileron (very short compared to the rest of the robot cast) is 22 feet tall, dwarfing G1 Optimus Prime. Ultra Magnus, Sixshot, and Cyclonus are taller, the same height as Grimlock. Springer, Weirdwolf, Skullcruncher, Rodimus Prime, Hardhead, Cerebros, Brainstorm, and Galvatron are as tall as Optimus Prime and Megatron. Scale charts for the Headmasters describe Razorclaw, Zarak, and Highbrow as the same height as Soundwave or Shockwave. Shockwave, Soundwave, the triple-changers, and the Conehead Seekers are taller than the likes of Starscream but shorter than Optimus Prime. Scale here is a little unclear, as only a few heights have been clarified, but Bumblebee is 15 feet tall, Shockwave is 35 feet long in ray gun mode, Thunderwing with his Pretender shell is 40 feet tall, Dreadwind is 41 feet tall, Devastator is either over 60 feet tall or 100 feet tall according to different sources, Superion is about 86 feet tall, Metroplex stands at 698 feet tall, and Broadside (oh, Broadside.) is 1,200 feet long in aircraft carrier mode.Īccording to an official scale chart, cassettes like Rumble and Frenzy are 2 meters (roughly six feet tall), with Laserbeak and Buzzsaw having the same measurement in wingspan, minibots range from 3 meters (about nine feet) tall like Bumblebee or 3.5 meters like Huffer, Reflector, and the majority of Autobot cars like Jazz and Prowl are 4 meters tall (about 12 feet.), Decepticon jets and larger cars (Ironhide, Ratchet, the Seekers, etc.) are 5 meters (over 15 feet.) tall, leaders like Optimus Prime and Megatron are 6 meters (almost 20 feet) tall, the Dinobots are 7 meters (over 22 feet tall), Devastator (and presumably other combiners) is 16 meters tall (48 foot-ish.), and Omega Supreme is nearly sixty feet tall. However, according to official scale charts and bios, G1 cartoon guys are a lot shorter, whereas IDW comic Transformers are freaking MASSIVE. The live-action movies, for all their faults, are fairly reasonable, being based in real world vehicles. Skipping past the usual jokes about scale in Transformers, I was browsing the Transformers Wiki and discovered just how drastically different scale for the Transformers differs throughout the multiverse.
