Description Theory: RS-X ended up as tall as he is because the writers/artists wanted to make him as distinct from Rock as possible. After all, game-X is not a mere recolour/redeco of game-Rock.

(Anyone got an estimates of how tall RS-Rock and X are? I cannot do math)

It could also be why X is somewhere in his thirties/early forties, as opposed to Rock's 15-21. (Even if all that musculature is just his armour, I have a hard time believing he'd only be in his teens)

Honestly, I always thought X was a teenager. But in the Ruby Spears cartoon, he appeared to be around 30 or 40 years of age.

Rock looks only like in his early 20's than his teens, due to the nature of the show's art direction, plus Roll's the size of April O' Neil there too.

RS-Rock is pretty tall. He towers over pretty much everyone in the cartoon, and if I had to guess I'd probably peg him at just short of six feet.

Which means X is a monster.

I wonder how many times the other Hunters can call him "beanpole" and variations thereof before he starts pitching them out the window.

Who knows? Maybe X's height is the standard...

I always figured he was mostly an isolated case.

And I just now read your first comment properly (I somehow misread "Rock" as "X"). Rock always seemed average/kinda short to me, though maybe that's just because I have no sense of scale.

Well, he's about the same size as Vile, and we've got no one else to compare them to, so I assume the robots in 21XX are just really really tall. But I could be wrong xD

And yeah, if you pay attention, Mega Man and Roll are taller than pretty much all of the humans. They're pretty big.
