It's irrelevant in that it the actor and the character do not have to be the the same height. The height is supposed to be reflective of the character. It's why the stark figures are not shorter then everyone else. It's how you can have a 5ft 9 Elijah wood play a 2 foot tall hobbit. It's how dean Cain and tom welling are supposed to be the exact same height as sueorman and be 6 inches different in the real world. Is it really that hard to get?
I wasn't saying the height of the character an it's reflection in scale figures is irrelevant, I said that no matter how tall the actor is...hu are playing a part. And just like the character is different from them in nearly every way possible (can fly, was in ww2, ect ect) the height is assigned or reflective of the character and NOT the actor. Batman is a certain height. No matter if he's in facts 4 inch tall drawing or a 6 ft 2 Ben Affleck that's portraying him.
The actors are playing someone or something else. That "else" is where ALL the details come from. Let's make it easier to grasp. American sniper is a fictional movie. It has characters that based on real people, but are fictionalizations on the screen. civil war is a movie with characters based on fake people, but those fake people all have stats the same as a real person. In this anology...Chris Kyle is a certain height and weight and age and is married to a certain person..Bradley cooper is just a representation of Chris Kyle. All the data/reference whatever you want to call it would be of Chris kyle for the figure based on the film, even if it looks like Bradley Cooper(yes, there are Chris kyle figures based on the man not the movie which would be like a comic version of Cap vs the film version). Groot is a 7 foot tall tree. Should Vin diesle height be used? Chris Evans is playing cap. Marvel and the filmmakers decided the height and strength of the character. It's not based on what Evans bench press and height.
The questions when design scaled version of a movie Captain America are not how tall is Chris Evans it's how tall is Captain America (as portrayed by Evans). It's the character everyone's buying.
Evans is 6ft flat, hemsworth 6ft3, RDJ is 5ft 9. Does it looks on screen like there's a nearly 6 inch height difference between Thor and stark? Is Thor 3 inches taller then Cap? No. What matters is how tall Thor, stark, and Cap are...not how tall the actors are.
