Quite probably as most of the figs I've come across are flattened in one
plan (i.e. they're either mainly in the horizontal or vertical not both)
and so the added bulk of being in both planes would probably make-up for
the shorted length. I personally don't know of any round or cube figs
(despite the existence of the borg) that are on general sale, it'd be
nice
to see what you can come up with. Tom Granvold might know of more blocky
miniatures you could compare your beads to.
Cheers
Beth
