Just curious to see if any of you know how the MPC model Space 1999 Eagles compare in size to the old die-cast ones? |

I remember the plastic kit as being significantly bigger than the Dinky Die-casts. |

I'd guess the Airfix kit was 1/72nd and the die cast was 1/100 Ish… John T |

I`dont know, the old MPC/Airfix model always looked more in scale with my old 15mm Traveller minis than with any of my 1/76 plastic figures which would make it about 1/100 or so (it was actually a good stand in for a modular cutter). That would put the die cast ones about the 1/150 or 1/200 mark. |
