Pitcher Size

Hello, I recently saw a Nepenthes rafflesiana N. Bruni Squat x (Kondo x Singapore giant 6) for sale and I was wondering if anyone knew how big the pitchers can get on this plant?
 
I have one, and the current pitcher is about 5.5" tall, 3.5" across. The plant itself is about 18" in diameter, and will get much larger.
 
It's possible. The Kondo and alata forms tend to be smaller. But the color and tendril frills more than make up for it.
