Everyone wants to know why you need so many of that particular thing…

Zeelow01 Dec 2021 10:22 a.m. PST

Because.

Looks more like a bus than a van with all those windows.

He's populating an Amazon distribution center. I live near one & they have about a hundred vehicles.

@Andrew Walters – I'm working on a city project and I want to populate it with quite many things. Also, I want to do some conversions of these miniatures in the future to use them in wargames.
@Zeelow – reasons. grin
@MajorB – yes, I am in a dilemma here. The thing is that the miniature is not that big compared to a 6mm car, is more appropriate to a van. Maybe is in fact a 3mm bus? I can live with it, the way it is.
@ZULUPAUL – close! I wanted many of them, but not 100. Unfortunately, I could buy only a pack of 100 and since it was cheap I was ok with it. Once on my table, I just couldn't say no to some of them, so all of them were painted laugh

Nice !!! You going to have a used car lot on your gaming table ? Why not ?!

Covert Walrus02 Dec 2021 3:01 a.m. PST

Never mind all that – Legion 4, do you have a link? Ali Express has such a poor search function . . .

Valderian02 Dec 2021 3:15 a.m. PST

Thank, Legion 4! I want to simulate the atmosphere in a bustling city, but yeah that is also a good idea, like a parking lot of a shopping mall as a "playground" for BattleMechs.
@Covert Walrus – here it is: link

@Legio4, thank you so much!

Not me but Valderian is your man … 😎

I hope they all have good car insurance ? 🚗🚓🚕🛺🚙🚌🚐🚚🚛

Legion 4, I didn't take it into account, but yes, it's necessary laugh
Nice pictures of vehicles hope to see them in 6mm. By the way, are there some cheap truck miniatures in 6mm? I've seen only a pack of 100 at 60$, which is too costly.

Covert Walrus07 Dec 2021 9:50 p.m. PST

Trucks also are an issue, but there's a lot of those available as stl files for those with access to 3D printers. I got some great results from this pack and my local library's printer service – link

Thanks, Covert Walrus! Good idea with stl. I don' t have a 3d printer, but I will do a research for printing services. Hope to find similar quality services near me, like those from the link provided.
