The 5E Tyrannosaurus Rex mini sticks its head and tail far out from over the edge of its base, while the 3E Fiendish Tyrannosaurus Rex is politely posed in such a way that the tail and head remain over the base.
Dragons are especially egregious; a Large-sized 3E and 4E dragon looks puny compared to the 5E equivalent, whose wings spread out to the point that other minis have little space for themselves. For that reason I haven't purchased any 5E dragon miniatures, instead buying the more reasonably-sized Pathfinder equivalent (I also personally don't care for the mid-flight poses and would rather have a grounded dragon).
Another annoyance is that the minis for some Huge-sized creatures are very tall and massive. The goristro I purchased yesterday is actually taller and bulkier than the Gale Force 9 Baphomet miniature I bought a few months back. If I had known the goristro was going to make Baphomet look gangly by comparison I wouldn't have bought it.
To sum it up, am I alone in feeling this way?
