Does the hit-box differ with every character?
For example, Tank Jr is a much bigger model than someone skinny like Crash. Is the hit-box also different?

Thanks, having a bigger model still seems like a disadvantage because it's easier to get noticed.

It's usually also important for enemy model to produce a lot of noise. Both Keel and Tank actually fit the criteria, but in my memory few players complained about TankJr model being bigger than its hitbox (especially in QL), which led to 'but hit it in the arm, why it didn't count'.

All in all it just a matter of personal taste.
