Look at what happened to Nymethus a few pages back.

1x1 flat brick = 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.2
1x1 normal brick = 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.6
Just use basic math for the sizes you want and it's that easy. You don't need to use a minifig reference.

I am very well aware of that. Using a minifig makes it much easier than doing math over and over again to get the correct sizes of objects.

I think we should use that new Spinosaurus model. It's alot better looking, and just flat out lovey.

If I was asking for realism I would have asked that the dinosaurs have scales, be rounder and more detailed, have animated tongues and eyes, etc. I was asking for more proper sizing.
I'm about to release a Farm Animal Player-type pack. The models are far from realistic, but I still sized them properly; the pig is smaller than the cow, and the chicken is smaller than the pig, and looks as if it could be picked up in a blocklander's arms.
Anyways, even if you still considered that to be too much realism to go for, then you would still be going against Jurassic Park itself. Even they made the spino larger than the T-rex in the 3rd movie, and they are famous for making a turkey-sized raptor 6-7ft tall.

1x1 = 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.6
2x2 = 1 x 1 x 0.6
2x2x5 = 1 x 1 x 3
It's just basic math.
