If you give me the measurements you used, I'll check QRF's for you too |

Strange also that they are all way too high on this one, but on the others you have checked it's only Battlefront.
I understand that it a design policy with Battlefront to increase the height to match figures on their thick bases. |

Gross: What measurements are you using? I think you've got something wrong. When I went through this last year the Old Glory stuff was way to short and the others were just about right on height (didn't check Peter Pig). I started checking because OG was my first purchase for 15mm and they just didn't look right. Mike |

Ivan, I'll double check. I was using a 1/35 line drawing. are you questioning just the IV, or all of the tanks I posted? |

Ivan, I just checked with a completely different source. Everything checks out. If you like, I can send you the line drawings so you can verify. |

Ya know NigelM, I really don't mind the IV's. At least they are all roughly proportional & are off in the same area (height). What kills the BF PzIII for me is that it is both high & narrow. It always bothered me, but it wasn't until last night when I checked the dimensions that I felt justified in my criticism. |
