THX guys!
@Carlos: AFAIK Schuco did not master all of the range, but bought a good deal of it from other companies. So the scale is actually "variable". The VBL is just the right size for 28mm's while the VAB is a little larger, but not much so. But you definately need to stay away from their WWII 251 and Puma... Those even seem larger then 1:43.
An Eryx from Eureka would be nice, just like a dismounted Milan or a tri-pod mounted MG-3 for the Germans!
Cheers,
