Sorry for the time but i forgot this. o_o
Here is a comparison picture with several manufacturers.

From left to right:

Boot Hill (for those who do war of 1812 for us militia, frontiersmen)
Brigade Games (war of 1812 and napoleonics)
Front Rank
Victrix
Knucleduster (more like 25mm)
Perrys
Companion Miniatures (OOP or ebay)
Foundry (Beware with the old ones-more 25mm) this is a more recent figure 28mm size.
Perrys
Victrix
Victrix

Hope its usefull
If needed i can take closer pictures of particular manufacturers.

What that shows is that the few millimeters in height difference makes no real difference on the table top. I find that a unified basing system ties different manufacturer's figures together in one army - heck - even in one unit.
