lifesized

Not scaled down

Lifesized describes something made to the same dimensions as the real thing it represents: a lifesized statue, a lifesized cardboard cutout of a celebrity.

The term emphasizes accurate scale rather than a miniature or enlarged version.

Also spelled life-sized or life-size.
