Hi! So I'm new here, and I'm actually very interested in the different heights of characters in the games.

So i've found some of the Kingdom Hearts game models, and I scaled them correctly. when you import the characters, you will notice that both Vanitas and Sora are the same heights... but something is wrong. Vanitas' build is completely and totally different than Sora's and he stands (in the game) a good two to three inches taller than Ventus (who is maybe the same height or an inch taller than Sora). So, therefore, you have to put Vanitas' model inside of Sora's model to size it correctly. Once you do this, Vanitas' face should appear the same size as Sora's, proving that he is actually taller than Sora's.

Here is my data:

(glanced at Vanitas again, glances at Riku's Dark mode...)

 

It looks as if Vanitas's outfit is a reskin of Riku. The same boots, skirt, and groves in the skintight armor. I kind of would like to see the comparison in between those two models. Though if this is the case, the BBS Vanitas might have been made lazily and KH1 Riku might have been taller than KH2 Sora.

They definitely look the same! Though I do wonder about heights in Kingdom Hearts... I've found so many glitches and variances in KH characters heights that I can't even count.

I've always loved the look of both Dark Riku and Vanitas' suits... they always looked so cool to me!

 

You are probably right. I guess we'll see if they face each other in KH3.

Dude... do you know how awesome that would be???

Yes I do! And I really really and I mean REALLY...hope it happens.

I'm really hoping it happens too! I would love to see Vanitas' suit in that great of animation as well!

That's a shame... that you can't just use KH 1 models to compare heights, if you could, you could also find out how much the shoes actually matter. (by comparing both Riku models, since KH1 RIku has similar shoes to Sora)

It's not actually the models fault, it's in the games fault... 

KH2 Sora comes up to Jack Sparrow's, Belle's, and Tron's shoulders, when Tron's official height is 6'2 while Jack Sparrow's official height is 5'10.... I son't know the height of Belle, but it isn't 5'10 or 6'2, so something is wrong!

Yeah it would be awesome if they fought each other in KHIII.

I could totally see it happening too.... I could also see Vanitas playing some sort of major role in KH3

Like Riku said to his replica in the manga, It's his shoes.

He is just taller! Sorry this may sound rude i dont know why we are making such a big deal out of it!;P

I would agree with that yes, but my issue with that is that Vanitas' arms are a lot longer than Sora's too....

I'm very detailed when it comes to seeing characters heights, stats, all that kind of stuff... I do cosplay/costume design and makeup effects, so it's hard for me not to notice the little things lol And it's just fun!
