Interesting Graphic on NPC Heights

I was reading a thread about the (extreme) height of the NPCs in CO, and one of the game's artists posted this pic showing the heights of various NPCs:

I thought Sapphire was just a tad on the tall side! (How tall is she in 6e Champs? Did she put on a growth spurt?

)

Someone put a Growth spell on the entire engine:

Yeah, it's kind of funny. CoH must have had the same spell cast on it.

It looks quite awful when my character stands next to Witchcraft or Sapphire. It's very disappointing that they couldn't figure out this would look ridiculous.

I also don't understand why Defender is so huge and James Harmon is so small.

I don't know why they don't just change the numbers on the height slider in character creation. Just add a foot. Then if you make a tall character, it may actually appear to be tall. My main is like 6'5" but looks like a kid standing next to most of the NPCs. Same thing in CoH. If you aren't 7' tall, you aren't going to be seeing eye to eye with most of your contacts.
