Most of them are between 3/4 and full size of a real person.
Here's a link to an article about the temple:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beijing_Dongyue_Temple

All the statues are situated in "departments". I guess there are around 40 or 50 departments with several hundred statues in them. There are departments for everything: departments for gods and ancestors, but also the "department of betrayal", "department of punishment", etc.
