Indeed, what scale are those cars? Are they Hot Wheels or Matchbox? If so, then what was used to add the weapons and such to them? A great set up! That looks like it was alot of fun to play!

That looks like too much fun. I have fond memories of Car Wars with my friends back in the 80s and 90s.

They look like matchbox and hot wheels so around 20mm.

That is what I was thinking. If so, then I am trying to figure out what was used to customize them and make the weapons.

For those asking above the cars are JADA and not Matchbox or Hot Wheels. JADA are bigger than MB/HW enough to be noticable but not enough to mean anything.
But Herod has been doing the Granite State since 2014. The pics get better and better.
