Alien Romulus Xenomorph/Alien height?

[(Bad Blood)]

Well hello my friends. I have a few questions regarding the height of the Xenomorphs/Aliens and Scorched. On Xenopedia it lists their heights at 7'2" tall. I find that off based on the size of the animatronic puppet used in the film. I attached a photo of it. It appears to be close to 9 feet. If not exactly 9 feet. So why list the height so short? Especially for aliens which average around 8 feet. What do you think? I think the alien height is more accurately a bit taller in the film than 7'2".

Even without knowing the height of the tech it looks bigger than 7'2".

Thank you, I absolutely agree. Not sure why they would put 7'2" after seeing something this tall? Perhaps they never saw the hero puppet from the behind the scenes footage or photos.

Scorched is about 9 feet tall.

Scorched is about 9 feet tall.

Thank you for the clarification. I thought from this photo it looked close to 9' but the confirmation is great to have as I have only just seen this as of today and not much other reference. Much appreciated!

The Alien's stance is also hunched. It'd be taller standing up straight.

It's head looks ridiculously small there.

Don't know if you can call it that small, does someone have a side profile of Big Chap for comparison?

Compared to the height, yeah it could be a bit bigger.
