I like them, but I never hear about that serie of figures.
Anybody knows them from 1980?.

Yes, a beautiful series of models, recently re-released and expanded, both by the owner of the license and by unlicensed garage kit makers. Look on Ebay under both "mak" and "sf3d".

Have a look at maschinenkrueger.com and "Maschinen Krieger" on Hobbylink Japan (www.hlj.com)

Nice figures but the ones I have are really too large to use with 25/28mm wargaming figures. I know some fellows have used them however. I also bought a lot of smaller ones off eBay and they are too small for 25mm. The smaller ones might work with 15mm if you can find them but I can not say for certain since I am not a 15mm gamer.

Most of the SF3D stuff I've got is 1/20th… standard model car scale. The Nutrocker tank kit I've got is smaller but too small for 28mm and probably too big for 15mm.

The original releases were primarily in 1/20, along with some 1/76 pieces, like the Nutrocker.

More recently there have been many more 1/76 pieces released, as well as some 1/35 kits, including a beautiful 1/35 Nutrocker released by Hasegawa.

There are plenty of cheapies on ebay – as long as the helmet is closed they fit fine with 28mm SOTR.

I have bought ones of bendy-plastic for about $7 USD each which work great when repainted…

There are two main scales of suits… 1/20 and 1/35. 1/20 would clearly be too big for 28mm but the 1/35 pre-paints from Hobby Base are pretty much spot on, if you close up the hatches.

Not sure what the "smaller scale" ones are that you got, but would be interested in more info on those.

I've picked up a couple of the bigger items (new Hasegawa kits, and pricey). The 1/20 scale 'Falke' makes a cool and rather Infinity-esque military craft to use for an objective, and the 1/35 scale Lunadiver Stingray also had two armored fighting suits which will make nice Ariadnan TAG prototypes. The Stingray makes a nice dropship, too. It's too bad those two kits are $100 USD each.
