Weird scales for model cars

[hermanchauw]

Any model cars (civilian or racing only, no military) that u have seen in weird scales, like 1:35, 1:48, 1:72, 1:76. 1:87 etc?

PS, wait for my Hummer in 1:35 scale, still lacking parts: steering wheel, bucket seats, dashboard.

1/35 is belong to military scale, 1/48 is belong to aircraft scale, but I do see some 1/72 cars, as for 1/76 and 1/87 mostly are by Roco or Herpa. You can get Roco and herpa from Orchard Store in Singapore, they were the agent.

I have recently bought this buggy on HLJ , it's 1/20. Not so easy to put rims on it , 1/24 is too little and 1/18 is a little bit to big.

I have seen some Airfix kits in 1/32, older kits like the Tyrell P34 were in that scale....

I saw those too... Like LSI brand that also have 1/28 scale and I myself is looking for LSI 1/20 Prince Skyline. I know Nichimo did a 1/32 scale on those. :huh:

Deedlit: Is that moon buggy nice to build, actually I'm trying to order 1 of those too.

I know about 1/87 and 1/160, for model train scales (HO and N, respectively) but the cars have hardly any detail this small...

I almost bought a 1/32 Sileighty kit, by accident... I'm glad the box was open so I could see how tiny it was...! :o

for some, but not all, like the HO herpa cars they are detailed. but the best HO cars are from kato every detail is there.

I love the pic where it's standing next to the 1/24 350Z. Makes the 350Z look 1:1!

That Merc is crazy.
Bibendumz, sorry i don't have a digital camera. I would love to post its pics if i can though.
