Transformers Jazz shorter than Bumblebee??? Height confirmations:

[x-fan]

he said robotS not optimus prime.....

and the robot IS 3ft higher.

i think it was a matter of misenterpritation(sp?)

acording to this there are no 40 feet tall robots, the nose on a long nose is 4 to 8 feet long so why is prime only 3 feet taller in long nose form ....

 

[CFlash]

so your talking to yourself now?

No, I was talking to you. Why do you think BB's not a Solstice? Wouldn't it have been more faithful if their alt-modes were reversed? With Midget-Jazz in the picture, doesn't this make Bumblebee a much more imposing figure?

And to nip something in the butt before it starts.
No "geewun" talk. No "prime was only a flat nose in g1, this isnt a g1 movie et over it " crap.

Yes prime was a flatnose. Yes this isnt g1, but why piss off fans for no apparent reason by making him a long nose. There was no reason.

Here's a little something i did on autocad:

could you try adding soemthing for size reference?...like a bus or something?

that way i can get an idea of how big.

and try adding the other robots too

 

[Mic]

Thats pretty good, but i think its a little off. Prime would most likely be "wider".
Hell be smaller than Megs, but he looks too small there. He will probably have the same "mass" but smaller.

You know what Im talking about jackass.

Yeah he looks small. But i did not change the proportions of the original image. But yeah in the movie i don't think the diferences will be that big. Hopefully.

I'll try adding more bots. i'll have to use art from maybe g1 lol

 

[x-fan]

np xw

 

[x-fan]

bb looks taller than 17 feet there unless the guy under him is less than 6 feet

 

[CFlash]

I think xw2 is just mad that he still hasn't come up with a way to defend Jazz being a midget in relation to BB's hotrodedness.
I'm sure he's working on it.

 

[x-fan]

the easiest way is to forget what came before and look foreward to something we aint seen before

 

[CherryRedSpider]

Anybody know their heights in G1 just for comparison? (and not the toys)

Wikipedia states the orignal Prime is 42 feet.

 

[Mic]

Wow, wait. Looking at the scale picture above, Jazz will be just a bit bigger than Primes ankle.

The tv show was notorous for size shifting. Bumblebee could be as tall as primes chest or as high as his waist depending on the situation. So size never really worked well.

dude, im not against you.....i just want a movie that will blow me away and lives up to what TF is, i want the personalities to be just like they should and the designs to be made into a way that will make me not feel like im watching a movie for 5year olds, a movie worthy of the name TF and 2007.

why they changed jazz or w/e i have no idea... but when i saw wolvie as an 8ft tall australian... i gave it a chance... and it worked.

 

[Stringer]

I guess Bumblebee is no longer the underdog and scout, now Jazz is

You will be happy with whatever Bay puts out...don't lie.

For some reason- despite the foreknowledge- Wolvie in the movie never *felt* like he was the height Hugh Jackman is in real life. Sure, he wasn't Danny Devito... but Singer shot those movies very well. He never felt "tall." Same reason Tom Cruise never looks like the midget he is in real life.

However, this isn't about cinematography and camera tricks... this is about Jazz purposely BEING a midget and BB being huge (relatively). The completely unfaithful adaptation that just shows an utter disregard for the spirit of the source material.
