Very COOL.
IMHO finding vehicles for the 1/56 – 28mm hobby is a bit more than "tricky". I was unware O gauge is close.
It eerked me that w/ so many 1/48 models out there, the miniature makers went w/ their own scale. I understand one of the Walking Dead's expansion sets IIRC, has 2 or 4(?) plastic 'shell' vehicles & extras.
As I told the guy who has the game, "If Only" they'd offer just the vehicles, i.e., One damaged and another undamaged.
Being IN scale and unpainted, IMHO they'd just rake in the bucks. |

@Part time gamer: the problem is scale creep. 25mm used to be S scale, 1/64. Not a lot of 'True 25mm' ranges left, but they do still exist. Then the minis got bigger, often due to questionable skills of the lowest-bidder sculptors, and D&D games used 1/60 scale for a lot of things (1"=5'). Which brought us to 28mm as a scale. But even that has grown, in some cases, to 32mm scale. Some games are selling minis big enough to actually be 1/48 scale. And finally you get all the way up to 40mm minis, which are nominally 1/43 scale. |
