Shiki is standing up straight (practically the straightest up pose you can get, really) while Iori's legs are bent, which might explain a little her height (also, Shiki isn't a 16 year old so she probably would have a respectable height for a female, I imagine)
I think they're supposed to be the same height, Iori is just hunched over in that picture. (If you watch his opening pose in other games, he's quite a bit taller before entering his fighting stance.)
Just as a comment, Shiki IS pretty tall in everything she's in.
I know that Iori is taller than that, and that he may be taller than Shiki. It's just that, well, I figured her shorter. Keep in mind that until now I only had seen her in Gals Fighters and in that photo in front of Hugo... 
But anyway, I still think that she seems bigger in proportion, as if they made a big sprite for all the new characters (in general, not only Hugo), and keep the smaller KOF ones for its characters.

Other relevant pictures:
New shots:
Dan is... THE STRONGEST, aka "Riot of Blood(y Nose) Kyo Kusanagi"
Shiki doing something.
Old (mostly) shots:
New mid-air super gimmick. At least two characters, Genjuro and Kim, have supers that go one screen above the background to do some sort of super combo. Note that Genjuro really is in the sky, because the previous picture is in the sky colors of this background, which was probably taken two seconds before that one (they're both Genjuro vs. Mr. Karate).
Balrog/Vega getting smacked around. This is the only shot we have so far of Balrog, and it's definitely him. Not only are those his pants, but the blurry name on the right side is six letters long, looks like it starts with a B and ends with a G, and definitely isn't Mr. Karate's, because his is easier to see.
All of this came from the uploader, which has now been abandoned by the regulars because of trolls, and from their new refuge, here.

lol....I'm such a bastard.
ARRGH! I hate you!
Sorry, I was gettin' bored.
But maybe they'll be an Athena cameo appearance?
Heh. Yeah, you got my hopes up, but it's ok. I doubt she'd have a cameo since she really doesn't have any relation to the characters in th game (although apparently Bao does...).
Honestly, I was REALLY surprised that Athena didn't make it in the game. I'm thinking that all the characters on the SNK side came from fighting games and fighting games only, then in the sequel (I'm sure there will be one someday) they'll work on characters with other origins for the SNK roster (Ikari Warriors, Athena, etc).
I'm sure Athena will show up in this game SOMEWHERE, either on an ending or when Demitri turns someone into a schoolgirl, someone could turn into Athena.....just for fun.

The KOF team has ruined the images of a lot of characters: Yamazaki, Yuri, Ryo, Takuma, Joe...It's no wonder the other teams didn't like them...
Yeah, wasn't Yamazaki the regular end boss of Fatal Fury/Garou Densetsu 3? That's funny to think about, considering his role in KOF. But he's a much, much better player in KOF games. How have Takuma and Joe's images been tainted though? I know Yuri got a "Sakura" treatment, as sort of a counter to the whole "Dan" thing, but...

man, don't get me started on how kof warped characters. Joe used to be a serious fighter. Muay Thai champ from Japan .. all about training .. i swear to god, i'm scared of him in Fatal Fury 2. in kof, they turned him into some goof. laughing when his teammates lose, mooning his opponents, etc

Yes, his fighting style changed, but I never considered it "evolved". Why doesn't Robert, Yuri, Takuma, or Marco take that stance? It got worse in 2002, when the exact same move, Kooh-ken varied completely between Takuma and Ryo. I never liked what the KOF team did to most of the AoF, FF characters... I'm sure there are people who like Ryo's stance, but I'm not one of them, that's all

Myself, I just wish he had that stance in the CvS games to make a greater visual differentiation between him and Ken and Ryu. I don't know if there's actually a point to the stance, but it's... different looking, I guess. It stands out. For the KOF games that's not a big deal, but I think for Capcom fans who never knew who he was, it would have gone a long way at establishing him as somebody different...
But I'm rambling. I don't know.

I totally understand & respect your opinion (^_^)
I think they do that for feeding the desire of more originality from the players.
Besides, Ryo gain a better haircut 
Not a Match. STRUGGLE !!

.... Then again I have posted too much in this subject, time to move on.
Yeah, same here. Complaining doesn't do us very good anyways.
Here's a real quick translation of some of the conversations posted up.
Terry: Yo Robert!
Dan: Huh? Who you talkin' about!?
Terry: Huh? Who're you?
Dan: If it isn't one guy, it's the next...I'm Dan Hibiki!
Kasumi: Ah! Robert! Kyokugen-ryuu, prepare yourself!
Dan: I'm Dan Hibiki goddammit!
Kasumi: Enough talk!
Kyo: Ryo's old man, whatcha doing with that mask on?
Takuma: I'm Mr. Karate! Not this Takuma guy!
Kyo: We'll leave it at that.
Ryu: I've heard about you, the Raging Tiger.
Ryo: You're mistaken, I'm the Dragon.
I like these conversations...(w
So, so great! I REALLY hope they don't change those in western version.
Please, whoever takes care of it, please, please....
You're making me start to wonder about other ones, like Kyo/Iori (a classic but in funny version? yeah) or Terry/Ryo, that could be something like "But weren't you supposed to be older than me?" or similar.

...so then the special intros are just a lot of talking again? I personally prefer when there's action in an intro, instead of just two characters babbling at each other (especially when you won't even know what the characters are saying to each other).
SFA3: Akuma vs. Evil Ryu, Sagat vs. Ryu (the one with Dan in it), Cody vs. Guy, Ryu vs. Evil Ryu, Sagat vs. Adon, etc. Those are some kick@$$ intros. And then there's GGX2's special intros, where you'll have an entire fight before the match even begins!
But then you have intros like Chunli vs. Yun in CvS2 where they just babble on. Boring.
Of course, special intros can be awesome with a good mix of activity and speech. Take Terry vs. Yamazaki in the CvS series for example. Kick@$$ stuff there.
Heh, heh. Yamazaki called Terry Andy. That's pretty funny...
