compatible modern civilian vehicles for 28mm?
« on: October 26, 2019, 08:29:56 AM »
Hello all

This question probably was asked before but i couldnt find the answer.
What manufacturers/scale should i search for modern vehicles compatible to 28mm?
Cheap and in plastic would be the goal. Jeeps, vans and trucks are the ones i´m after.

I know that Siku had some but couldnt find others.

Thank you for your help

Cheers

Rui

Tomica
Corgi
Majorette
Come to mind at about 1:56 to 1:64 scales. Will depend on the actual model.
There seems to be something wrong with our bloody ships today...turn two points to port.

I think 1/55 looks a bit small for 28mm minis.

Suggest you go out and get some 1/48 ones and try not to worry about it.
