Toy cars or unpaint miniatures. I can find larger vehicles such as van, truck via Japanese Tomica but I can't find the smaller one such as taxi, sport car in 15mm scale. |

Search eBay for 1:100 cars – there's a lot of places that sell them by the truckload for train layouts or architectural models. You'll also find 1:200, 1:300, 1:500… |

HO scale works real well… |

I have both 1:100 civilian vehicles (many the same type nvdolye has mentioned) as well as a lot of HO / 1:87 scale stuff and I find the HO / 1:87 vehicles a much better fit with the larger size of many 15mm minis coming out these days. Jeff |

I agree with Jeff. The 1/87 goes well with today's 15mm. However, if it doesn't say 1/87 in the box, chances are that it is only an approximation. Here are a few that clearly say 1/87 on the box or display platform: auction

PS. Just type this in your searches:
"hot wheels 1/87"
"winners circle 1/87"
"malibu 1/87" |

Model Power Minis has a series of 1:87 vehicles that seem to fit well with my 15mm moderns. There is also a "1/87 Vehicle Club" site that links to many different manufacturers. |

Thank you for the suggestion! I think HO scale is a bit large for 15mm because most of my minis are from Peter Pig. They are kinda like true 15mm. |

they will work fine…most of my figs are Peter Pig and Rebel…and I use HO scale 1/87th and even matchbox trucks. !8 wheelers, panel truck, dump truck, plow, bus…all work great. Carry a figure in your pocket when your looking for cars and compare it to the desired vehicle… |

It seems that HO scale work great with 15mm figures. btw, who made the naked women?
picture Are they naked women from Peter Pig Range 6-Odds and Ends?
I think they might be great for 15mm superhero Thanks in advance! |
