Can't help with measurements, but I'm pretty sure all Warlord vehicles are 1:56. |

Thank you I know that but I want the size in inches. The whole 1/56th thing doesn't help because one person 1/56th is not the same as the other guys 1/56 |

If you're thinking about mixing different 1/56 scale vehicles and worry about possible inconsistencies between the various manufacturers, I'm sorry I won't be of help since all my vehicles are either 1/48 or 1/50. But if you are entertaining the idea of mixing 1/50, 1/56 and 1/60 vehicles, you will find that the size differences are very marked unless you have a very high tolerance for size differentials. |

Thank you Now do you have any Bolt action Tanks the 3 I asked about would be helpful and do you own a ruler and can you put them close together and read me the numbers. Sorry but I thought it was a simple question but there are no simple questions with wargamers. LOL |

The Panther looks to be 4 1/2 inches long by 2 1/4 inches wide. The 251 is 3 3/4 inches long by 1 1/2 inches wide. I don't have any T34's. |
