Those 1:144 Planes: The Dogfight Series

I want to know why toy companies can't seem to produce any sort of comprehensive range in a consistent scale. I grew up playing with the "Micro Machine" military models (which were found at most retailers at the time), but even as a child the lack of a consistent scale bothered me considerably. Infantry shouldn't stand nearly as tall as a Tiger IE!

These 1:144 model aircraft and vehicles are great! Now we just need more variety of them, and infantry in a proper scale! Considering the popularity of FOW, it would seem (to me) that a comprehensive range of 1:144 scale models would do very well (at that price, why not?). A range of 1:100 (15mm) would do even better! Even if they charge $5 USD a tank, you're still getting off cheaper (and faster, 'cause they are prepainted!) than buying from Battlefront or any other 15mm WWII manufacturer. I'd probably still buy the unpainted models (because I enjoy the painting!), but I am not blind to the business opportunity that decently painted and cheap(!) model soldiers and vehicles present to the wargaming community.
