Not sure if this is the right place for it, but anyway...
I presume that of the alien types shown in the first three movies (excluding the obviously large gueen), the Big Chap and the warrior are the same size.
But how large was the dog alien in comparison to Big Chap.
He can look quite small on all fours, and although he has a long tail, he's quite slim.
Who has the larger head? Who's bulkier?
Dunno if anybody has anything definitive on anything like this,
Thanks

For me Big Chap looks enourmosly big, Warrior is human-sized and Runner is slightly smaller .

The same applies to head's sizes .

Yep, and "Stompy" in A: Isolation seems to be even bigger, so there might be some moulting/shedding of "skin" before.
Actually it would be interesting to see (in game or in comics) a stage between the chestbuster and the adult.

Ergonomics according to game mechanics. The following video tries to sell us the Stompy Alien as Big Chap. Even so, it is fun to watch, just take it with a grain of salt  ;)

Yes.

Oh, for simpler days when the Big Chap was a one-off "Kane's son", and not one of many replicable in a class birthed by a queen. The egg/facehugger---chestburster---Big Chap---egg/facehugger circle was gross in that it reduced a human to simple fodder for the cycle. Of course, when facehuggers got hold of so many colonists, I suppose a "class" was inevitable, since by then the organism was being studies scientifically (as seen in the colony's med center.) Still...

The Big Chap was 7 feet 2 inches tall.

ALIENS Warriors were about 8 feet tall - with a more slender frame than the original Alien.

ALIEN3 Runner was described as being larger than previous specimens.

ALIENS Queen is about 14 feet tall.

Big Chap, as depicted in ALIEN: The Illustrated Story, was much larger than its film counterpart - about the same size as the ALIENS Queen!?!

They say the Runner was just over 7 feet standing, which means his back probably wasn't more than three feet high when on all fours. About waist height. Just makes him seem small when compared to a looming Big Chap

Maybe it's not the tallest, but the longest from mouth to tail (excluding the Queen of course).

I always considered that for dramatic effect...
