Yep. I assume that's why a Keeper was cleverly used for "size comparison" ;)

One think I've never understood about the Vulture Totem is that according to the rules (1st ed, at least), it can fly. I wonder how!

Well according to 1st edition rules it doesn't state Flying anywhere, the only thing remotely close is the Leap special ability. Leap is just a.... leap! 2" vertical, 3" horizontal move action that counts as a charge if it lands in base to base

First edition has leap.  Second edition has fly.  Since no official model was made for either edition, it looks like we all win.  Buy Alex's for 1st edition proxy, or buy Alex's and convert it for 2nd edition!!!
