Just to answer your question about Jason's height in comparison to Leatherface (you baited me into this discussion didn't you?) Up until Freddy Vs Jason and the Reboot, Jason's height has generally been depicted as being between 6'3" and 6'5", as Richard Brooker (6'3"), Ted White (6'4"), and Kane Hodder (6'3") were all very close in height, and each actor wore risers in their shoes to give them an inch or two.

The tallest Jasons are a tie between CJ Graham (Part 6), Ken Kirzinger (FvJ) and Derek Mears (Reboot) who were each at 6'5". Kirzinger was the tallest on screen of the bunch, as he wore 4 inch risers in his boots to tower over Freddy and to boost his Jason's height to about 6'9", while Mears also wore risers, although much shorter so the actor could retain the speed and agility the director wanted for the rebooted Jason (about 2 to 3 inches, putting him at roughly 6'7".) CJ Graham wore flat sole boots in part 6, giving him only a slight height push, putting him at about 6'6"ish. Since three actors checked in at nearly 6'3" (including Hodder, who played Jason more than anyone else,) I'd say that would be the height to go with.

Fun fact about Derek Mears...he also played the "classic" Predator in the movie Predators...

Gunnar Hansen and Andrew Byniarski are both 6'5", which depending on what types of shoes they wore, puts Leatherface at about 6'6"ish, matching them up fairly close. Dan Yeager, who played Leatherface in Texas Chainsaw 3D was 6'6", but like in the case of Jason, since Hansen and Byniarski have played the role more than any other actor, 6'6" would be what I would say Leatherface's height should be.

So, if we were doing averages of the character throughout all of their films, Leatherface should be taller by about at least 3 to 4 inches. However, since the figure is based off of CJ Graham's performance in part 6, Jason would only be about an inch shorter, if not dead even to Gunnar's Leatherface...
