1x4 at the bottom, and about four times taller than a LEGO plate. Actually I

king's throne in the Enchanted Palace set has two of these on the armrests.
By the way, I didn't know Fabuland figures were so small. I have just looked at
a few pictures and found out how cute they are! Growing up in Japan, I never
had a chance to see Fabuland sets.
