Anyone know what scale this is? Most of this stuff is fit to the box, so the scale varies (considerably).

1/64 like Corgi Tactical Strike Humvee. A little smaller though but really a little (1mm). WILL take a pic for you tomorrow. I have TS pickup and avenger (soon ambulance and canvas too) + FM hardtop humvee.

EDIT

I have one that I bought to go with my BEvo Us Marines, it looks good with small 25mm, but probably far too small for the current bulky 28mm troops.

Given the comments so far, I have grabbed a couple from Ebay (HK).

Thanks for all the replies so far.

It is a nice model, mine was only £3 at a car boot, not bad for a ready painted vehicle.

That (my modern collection is BF Evolution miniatures so perfect match)

That is some collection, Ulu.  I must admit I was disappointed that they discontinued the range, as it had a lot of potential, and no other figures seem to be in the same scale.  :'(
