Yes, I measured him when I got him for everyone to know.
I don't know who's height is right or wrong, all I know is, there's a clear difference in his height to other figures that doesn't sync with the height differences between the real characters. Since many 1/6 figures aren't exactly 1/6 of the source (HT Rambo's are 6 feet tall by scale and Stallone is not), it should be about scaling with each other. Vader might be true 1/6 in height, but it's not in sync with the other characters.
While different Vader actors, the height difference compared to ROTJ is about the same, and the Sideshow Vader cannot look like this next to Palpatine.

With exceptions like Stormtrooper/Sandtrooper comparisons, have they ever posted separate products together in a product gallery?
That'd be the same reason they didnt show SDCC Luke and Han shoulder to shoulder.

If you do the helmet mod for Vader that lowers the dome to the right spot, and bend his knees a bit, I'm sure he'd be very close to perfect height. If they make that change on future Vaders, then they will have basically solved the problem.

In this pic Palps looks like he's standing on a box
ROTS Vader is so full of fail.... They made a big mistake letting Hayden in the suit. He is far to slight of frame and short of stature to be a credibly suited Vader. He has that huge helmet on.

I thought the suit looked great in ROTS.

Plus there is a 19 year gap between Vader in ROTS and ANH, so he would look different physically

I agree there were certain moments were it looked ok. usually in shots that skewed perspective or were either from behind or half body shots.

Who's the bigger geek? The actors who got paid to do that? Or the one who buys toys of them?
That scene was such an epic fail. Your attention is supposed to be on Vader but I couldn't keep my eyes or mind off of the quick Tarkin cameo.
It's too bad Tarkin's screen time was so far back, I was really impressed with what the makeup department pulled off on the actor.
Odo?
Well, hopefully SS won't consider anything other than ANH Tarkin. It'd be a scary suprise if they went for the ROTS version.

His hands weren't positioned like that in the movie.
Also the make up of Tarkin was not designed to be seen close up.
How can Tarkin, Vader and Palpatine together be fail?
And ROTS

Yup, they were shackled down at his side.
And ROTS does kick ass. My favorite of the 6.
