I'm interested in picking up a couple of the dragons from Tyranny of Dragons, NOT the newer Elemental Evil set (which has small young dragons).  The official listings say that the Blue and Red dragons are "large", but the images I see seem to indicate they are closer to Adult size?  Technically, a "large size" dragon is merely a young adult (e.g. a teenager dragon) according to Monster Manual descriptions, which I'm not interested in buying.  

 

Can anyone verify (if they have these Tyranny minis) if the Red or Blue dragons are indeed just "large" (on a large base) or really more like Huge creatures on a large base?  

 

I know this is confusing because WotC has been messing around with the miniature sizes, for example they actually have the Frost Giant which is clearly a Huge monster but they put it on a "large plastic base" (what the hell for, to save plastic?)  I know for a fact since I ended up with 2 of those Frost Giants. 

 

thanks for anyone who can clarify
