I meant to measure mine yesterday when I had them down off the shelf, but mine are all about 2 feet tall (without legs). Mine are a little different in that I'm trying to represent cartoon characters that I made years ago, so the heads tend to be a lot larger than the bodies. Since there's only so small that the bodies can get to accommodate an adult arm, the heads tend to be HUGE.

Also, since they often interact with real people, they have to be large enough to not look like... um... puppets.
