I know, which is why I said my problem with it is that the in game model is too small. I get that the CR90 is too small as well, but it doesn't look nearly as out of place next to the Rebel Transport as the Raider does next to the Gozanti.

That's because the Transport isn't to standard scale either. It should be more than double the length of the Gozanti model (being 90m in length compared to the Gozanti's 41m) . The Gozanti has to be to the standard scale as the fighters dock with it. I agree it's not ideal but I'm glad we've got the huge ships in a playable format.

And it isn't nearly as bad as it is in Armada when you put Home One next to an Assault Frigate Mk II. Looks more on par with the Bulwark Battle cruiser.

Gozanti's a bit bigger than that - 63.8m:

but it is true that it's to a different scale from the Transport, CR90 & Raider.

The size is different in Legends and Disney Canon.

Somebody needs to do some ratios based off the model seen in Mos Espa and the people walking around town.

Derp TIE Fighters are a much better measuring tool and their size is known.

True - but the 41.8 m figure was very early legends - and was for the TPM Gozanti Krayt's Honor.

These are clearly Rebels Gozantis, for which the 63.8m figure was invented.

Actually, it changes quite a bit. When X-Wing Miniatures first came out, it was 8.99m long. Now, it's lower - 7.24m long.

If you sit 7 TIE fighters in a row, facing foward, each one in contact with the one in front at the wingtips - if the Gozanti's 63.8m and to scale with them, it should be roughly the same length as this row.
