Just as the title says , what miniatures cars (in 1:100) do exist out there for use as Team Yankee scenery (or as objetcves for those looting russian hordes…)??

Weirdly enough Hot Wheels toy cars work too.

HO cars work very well, and vintage 80's models can be picked up for cheap on the second hand market.

Regular scale Hot Wheels and the like are far too large (1:64 or thereabouts).

You can find 1:100 cars by the bagful (literally) and for cheap, on eBay. Example:

Motor Max "American Classics" 1/87 range is cheap, and scales exceptionally well. Have had difficulty finding them online for some reason, but Hobbyco in Sydney has a truckload.

Oxford diecast, procier but far wider range for the period.
