I didn't realise that infantry were included in this set - a shame that they aren't strictly "Tank riders" though and instead just regular Soviet infantry models. <br />Still, for the price, this boxed set looks like a great deal. Should our Bolt Action games ever grow large enough I'd snap it up in short notice.Daihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04978439841611727387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447293089931737000.post-75573683493845345952015-11-03T13:19:05.028+00:002015-11-03T13:19:05.028+00:00Guillermo, its because 28mm is a size not a scale....Guillermo, its because 28mm is a size not a scale. What that relates to in scale terms can be anything from 1:60 to 1:48, with 1:50 and 1:56 being popular stopping points. Wargame models are not traditionally 'to scale' for artistic and practical reasons. If you blow a 28mm soldier up to 5' 10'', say, you would get a very odd looking human being.John Lambsheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04598696442104566164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447293089931737000.post-68358855352377172582015-11-03T13:16:09.379+00:002015-11-03T13:16:09.379+00:00The scale issues arise because different methods, ...The scale issues arise because different methods, and different suppliers, are used for different materials.John Lambsheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04598696442104566164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447293089931737000.post-62616784499512963192015-11-03T11:56:30.743+00:002015-11-03T11:56:30.743+00:00It has always truly baffled me that "stuff th...It has always truly baffled me that "stuff that existed" cannot be recreated in 3d with the expected exact proportions, based on a certain scale 1/56 or whatever.<br /><br />And this is considering the shrinkages and variations in size caused by molds etc.Guillermohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05448483054406662012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447293089931737000.post-85969049304060788002015-11-03T11:30:19.446+00:002015-11-03T11:30:19.446+00:00I find it strange that a company cannot maintain c...I find it strange that a company cannot maintain constancy in scale. <br /><br />Other than that they do look alright but have no use for them at present.
