Basically, retailers are hedging their bets and guessing that Captain America will be the bigger of the two lines/movies. Probably a safe bet. Marvel's Thor is pretty obscure, even compared to where Iron Man and Cap were/are before their movies.

As for the figure's height...he seems to be in scale with the other figures, more or less. Hemsworth is 6'4". In-comics Thor is 6'6". He's not supposed to be some 7' tall giant (like the Frost Giant). Yeah, he's shorter than MU Thor, but this isn't MU Thor, it's movie-Thor.

And yet he's shorter than Odin, Iron Man, Loki and barely taller than Whiplash...
