The new character creation allows for you to modify the scale of every individual component of a character (head, torso, legs, hands, feet) as well as modify the offsets in the x, y and z planes.
Therefore if you create custom body components that are vastly different dimensions to the original character format, you can tweak and adjust the scale and offset values to make your characters look awesome.
