Elastolin toy castle

[italwars]

Hello friends
I've just seen  this toy  castle (probably Elastolin) to purchase at an affordable price from an Italian market place . what I do not understand from the measures the seller posted (40 cm x 60 cm plus he added a picture with a 5cm high miniature) if the scale could be right for my needs.
My medieval/renaissance armies are in 1/72 plastic including some nice  Ral Partha small 25mm …but in case , I also have a French Revolution Vendean rebel army in 25mm/28mm eager to conquer a castle :-)
Is it worth to buy it ?
Thanks for your suggestions

That's probably going to be rather large. The Elastolin castles were primarily designed with either 40mm or 54/60mm figures in mind, ie their own ranges.

That said, just doing a rough measure from the first photo you posted and not taking into effect angle, distance etc, it might work. Presuming the 60cm length to include the base board the photo on my screen measures 15cm or 1/4 scale. That would make the building around 16cm tall in actuality. It's entrance doors that primarily give us visual clues about whether a figure is in scale so if the doors are in the 4-5cm range you could make it work.

Buy it, I've got one, 28mm figures look well manning the ramparts!

Looks good. Judging from the size of the 50mm figure and the little doors in the buildings in the background this would suit figures much smaller than 50mm. I suspect the doors are scaled to 20-25mm figures.

I have one as well. Perfect for 28mm.

The Elastolin or Hausser castles scale well with 20mm to 54mm in my opinion.
