Would you guys be able to help me?

I'm wondering in terms of games workshop products, including the metal regiments, and FW DKoK... In order of shortest to tallest... What the biggest and smallest guard models are. Also which ones are most representative of the guard in terms of scale, when compared standing next to a space marine for example. Thanks!

FW IG minis (DKoK, Elysians, etc.) probably have the most accurate anatomical proportions. Space marines minis are not proportioned correctly according to the fluff, they should stand much taller; towering over normal humans.

FW elysians and DKOK are good comparisons next to a marine, as well as OOP FW tallarns. If you're willing to look at 3rd party, the Victoria minis range are good next to a marine as well.

3rd party madrobot minis range are comparable to standard cadians, catachans, vostroyans, steel legion, OOP praetorians, valhallans, GW tallarns, mordians, tanith ghosts, tempestus scions.

DKOK are the same height as Cadians, they just are more realistically proportioned (not nearly as wide, smaller heads, smaller guns). They're about the same height as a Space Marine, only very slightly shorter, but being less bulky they look less silly when placed next to SM's.

Elysians are very realistically proportioned, shame they are so expensive.

FW Guard stuff actually looks like humans in their proportions. GW's stuff (metal or plastic) are all roughly the same and equally blocky and poorly proportioned.
