Well Bryan, here are some interesting minifig scale figures:
If you assume that an average door is 80' tall and you apply that to the
minifig scale doors, in proportion a minifig is 5'7" tall. Which is a good
average height for a human. The amusing part is when you measure the
minifigs body proportions at that scale.
If a minifig bought pants, he would need a 75" waist and a 13.3" inseam
If a minifig bought a dress shirt he would need a 33.3" collar and a 33.3"
sleeve
If a minifig bought a suit, he would need a 71.6" chest
If a minifig bought shoes, his feet would measure 13.3" long and 11.6" wide
(anyone know what size that is?)
In short, a minifig is one stocky little creature
Hope that helps
Silas
