ST TFA Character Height Chart

I don't know if this has been discussed before, but I'm not sure what to make of this. In Japan, 7-Eleven got an exclusive contract with Disney and is selling advanced tickets for TFA, and anyone who buys a ticket there receives a free Star Wars newspaper "special edition". The newspaper contains a quite amusing height chart with the main characters:

I don't know if the info on all OT and PT characters is completely accurate, but what I found it amusing is that Captain Phasma here measures 201 cm. That’s like 10 cm more than the actress’ real height. Has there been any official info released from Lucasfilm directly regarding their respective heights?

 

Interesting, it seems the good guys are again shorter than the baddies.

 

Evil is Bigger

But seriously, Phasma is almost Vader's height.

 

To me, Chewie looks taller in that OP pic than in these. Hard to tell though.

 

Gwendoline is a tall girl!

 

Per the internet- Gwendoline is 6' 3'' and Prowse 6' 5", so that would seem to be accurate; they are close.

 

Carrie Fisher was such a cutie back then!

 

Why is the TFA gang in the middle? It looks like a chronoligically timelined line-up, so why put them in between the PT and OT?

 

Why is everything in centimeters?

 

Thanks La Calavera for posting this. It just went up on the SW Post and I credited you and this marvelous forum.

 

I wonder how tall BB-8 is....

 

Because centimeters are better than inches.

And that pic is also another proof that the theory that Luke is Kylo can't be true.

 

i've heard girth is more important.

 

I'd say the ST characters are bracketed by the PT and OT to keep the ST in the prime real estate in the middle of the picture. They are the focus of the new movie(s) coming out, after all...

Because this was published in Japan, not in one of the few remaining countries that still use the obsolete and cumbersome English/Imperial system of units... (and yes, I am American)

He's on the chart, in front of Finn and the stormtrooper

 

Interesting...Rey is only 2 centimeters shorter than Luke.

 

Darth and Anakin, side by side...

I am 6'6", which is about 198cm. Gwen is taller than me. I think I am in love.

 

What is this one about? Looks interesting? Still height?

 

connections.

 

And the Skywalker family tree more specifically.

 

GC is a giant.

 

I love the way they spell some of the names in Japanese:

Skywalker: スカイウオーカー 'Sukaiwākā '
Darth Vader: ダース ベイダー 'Dāsu Beidā'.
etc.

On heights: i only really think in metric, but there are merits to a duodecimal system when it comes to subtraction, which is why those systems existed in the first place.

Gwendoline is 1.91, and when she wears high heels she adds several centimetres to her height:

 

I agree about the extra ~10 cm coming from being "in shoes" + helmet, etc. A similar addition can be seen in Prowse's height vs fully-costumed Darth Vader
