Drawn to scale

The robots side by side at their true relative size, as their source models are posed.

Specimen renders from each project's source files, scaled so a meter is the same length for every robot (measured at each model's center: the renders are perspective views, so the scale is exact there). Heights are the models as posed in their sources.

Side by side

Every figure is read from each robot's record, with its source; a cost keeps the currency the source states and its basis.
