So i've built up a large collection of 1/87 tanks and vehicles. hard to find true 1/87mm figures other than Preiser. Any ideas on "large 15mm" or true 18mm-19mm True 20mm are just too big when next to a 1/87 whereas Peter Pig or PSC-15mm are too small. any ideas? thanks |

On thought might be to mont the figures on substantial (5mm) bases as a compromise? |

Yes, that's always an option. I posted this query on the 20mm Board and the consensus there was that SHQ 20mm ran on the small side. Any other suggestions? |

Forged In Battle figs always look a bit bog to me. LIsted as 15mm but pushing 18mm IIRC. |

scroll to the bottom link you can see essex are kind of the biggest . FIB unlike their ancient colleagues are only a bit bigger than Peter Pig |

Some of the Battlefront figures are pretty big, for example the winter Americans are huge for 15mm. |

Irregular 20mm are small but a bit chunky alongside Preiser. Some older 20mm plastics are very small by today's standards… |
