Could someone please post a picture of a penguin robot next to something that I know the size of?· i.e.; an 81/2 X 11 sheet of paper?

Thank you.

    Here's the first sentence on the first page of the Penguin PDF:

    The Penguin Robot is a precision-machined 4-inch tall biped.

    Here are some nice visual comparisons for relative Penguin robot size.
    You can clearly see Penguin robot is 4-inches tall, or use the Metric
    and English units scale in the photo to verify.

    Penguin has the perfect size for running programs both on the desktop
    and the floor. It has small physical size but is a large engineering
    marvel! A lot of people are working on giving this bot many new
    capabilities. The Penguin investment just continues to become more
    and more valuable to the hobby robot enthusiast.

    Recently, Penguin became a Superhero. Small and mighty, it can
    potentially save your life! For more details, refer to the Penguin
    sticky.

    compensate for the 3/8" where the scale is
    blank at the bottom when measuring.
