You're thinking of Curiosity. That really is about the size of Opportunity. The perspective because it's half-buried doesn't help, but it's pretty close.

Spirit and Opportunity are twin rovers, each a six-wheeled, solar-powered robot standing 1.5 meters (4.9 ft) high, 2.3 meters (7.5 ft) wide, and 1.6 meters (5.2 ft) long and weighing 180 kilograms (400 lb). It's not close.

Yeah, that 4.9 feet is the height of it's "head". Look at it compared next to a person. Shit, give me a moment and I'll do it for you.
