They look to be as tall as a brick, but it looks like each individual leg disappears Into the body without joining to a hinge/pelvis first. The chest (which as we know is part of the head) extends below where the body ends, so my only real view of the intersection between the legs and the body is the side.

Ut-oh...now that I'm looking closely, could it be that *GASP* there ARE NO
STUBBIES?

Get this...could this be, instead of shorter legs like we supposed, that
there is a new torso than covers regular legs? And what phrase will we fight
to coin for these torsos? "Shorties"? [1]

Oughtta' just be a minifig head...possibly the blank brown head from the Tie
Pilot.

[1] "Shorties", and the singular form "Shorty" are © Matthew Gerber. So

in which case Stubbies remains © Richard Noeckel...umm...I think...I forget...)
