I will also say that the original Martian Banshees were 35mm at the eyeball. And the Cardinal fig is HUGE!!! I always love the discussion of a mini's height. Is it to the top of the head, or eye level?
What's sick is that my Banshees didn't come with the bald, goateed Sergeant, so I substituted a later edition's Wailing Banshee Sgt. I'm not sure that's "legal", but you use what you've got. Unfortunately, he wears a different jetpack and he's much shorter than his troops. The only saving grace is that he's "flying" and the added height makes him the same height of his squad.
