Taking from the broadway musical perhaps in its size? As that's about 19 feet tall. I can be wrong there though.
Trust me when I say; i'm not talking about what could (or could not) be the leak. I myself haven't seen the pic, as I am more going off by the original King Kong broadway version that premiered a few years back, as the puppet seems to be made by the same company.

Dude, come on. This is exactly the kind of stuff that needs to be in spoilers.
I don't think BriMan was talking about your previous post. There was another post or two that he deleted. I would guess those are the ones he was referring to.
All I will say is that the Kong from the old, burned down USH animation was 30 feet tall. I believe the Kongfrontation AAs were just about the same size, if not a tad smaller.
I don't get why anyone wants to see the leaks.
We've been speculating for well over a year now. Why spoil the fun? Just wait. Then you can actually experience the AA first hand.

I can't speak to the exact size of the Kongfrontation AAs, but the staging of the final scene certainly made him look absolutely MASSIVE, and certainly appeared to be bigger than the one on the old Hollywood tour. Being up in the air at chest and face level with him probably played a part in that.
To this day, I still regard this as one of the best finale moments in any ride ever. Experiencing it as a 6-year-old was a monumentally intense experience that was seared into my psyche forever.
Of course Reign of Kong will be a totally different kind of thing, but for me, it's got a lot to live up to!
Or, for those in other reigions of the world with no planned Orlando vacation in the distant future: via YouTube.
Yeah but then you can just wait until YouTube. I don't get why someone would go around leaking pictures and taking the fun out of everything.Or, for those in other reigions of the world with no planned Orlando vacation in the distant future: via YouTube.
...uhhhh I think there's a miscommunication here. The joke being that when the ride opens, others far away from Orlando can experience it via YouTube as is a popular thing. In no way do I condone the AA leaks.
(haven't seen it and won't look for it for the record)
Only Kong I need to see is the one in my profile picture. Plus, photos and videos don't do many of these rides justice. Saw tons of videos of Diagon Alley and was still blown away the first two times I went.
This will be looking at me The Kong thread after it opens for the next 4 months.

I honestly never expected the Kong AA to be that large because of how his size was represented in the 2005 film. In the Peter Jackson remake, he was scaled at about 25 feet, while previous films had him ranging 40 to 60 feet. Kongfrontation was likely based on those, so I would imagine any AA for Reign of Kong to be closer to 25 feet if they were to show him in full. Otherwise, they can get away with showing half or even less.
In comparison, the Yeti AA (or static figure now) is 25 feet.

25ft tall is still pretty tall for an AA. You're talking about something moving that's almost the height of a 2 story house. The weight will be colossal.
I've asked before on Magic and the Yeti itself is closer to 13 feet or so. The base makes it 25.
