If you want to go really big, and ambitious, you should do a Terran Marine/Tychus Findlay from Starcraft II. You get a pretty good look at him and the armor in the opening movie/trailer for the game and from the looks of things in the game I'd say that he's pushing 7' in his armor. It would be a pretty ambitious build because he's sort of like Buzz Lightyear on steroids and the armor has a lot more detail.

Did anyone say Master Blaster or Lord Humungus from the Mad Max movies?

Oh oh oh....T-600 from Terminator: Salvation.
I hate when i see someone short in a predator costume.. Its just all wrong. Preds are all tall!. If your 6'6" that's a great start.. The feet will add 2 inches maybe more if you want.. The head will add 3 inches maybe more. That puts us at 7' maybe a touch over tall.. Kevin Peter Hall was 7' 5" in the suit.

Your 6' 6" tall and 225 lbs. You can dress as anything. Who's going to argue!

The Mega Man fan in me says one of the Hunter Commanders, like Sigma or Signas, although, to be honest, Sigma ends up somewhere over seven feet, last I remember.
Past that, I would say that it really depends on the genre that you're going for: if you want it to be someone from a cartoon, a movie, a comic series, etc., although the sheer number of posts prior to mine bring up several good suggestions.
Honestly, I'll admit that people that are over 6' usually bring to mind either the muscle-bound fighters from some of the classic side-scrolling fighter games or someone dressed up in a mech suit. That, of course, can vary from Transformers and Voltron (I saw someone post that) to the various mech suits that exist, such as those from Gundam or Evangelion.
or one of the Amalgams from Blassreiter, if you're familiar with that anime.
Just a couple of suggestions.
