peter john bandee-underwoo Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Hi I like the new releases , I am sat here watching a youtube review of the 2023 range, the reviewer said that the landy had both civilian and military possibilities, this made me wonder why was it made in 1/43 and not 1/48 to fit with aircraft or 1/35 for military dioramas?

peebeep Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 1/43 is equivalent to railway model 'O' scale and is a popular scale for mostly die cast car models, although there are quite a few resin kits available. Heller have quite a few 1/43 plastic car kits and Airfix probably thought it would be an ideal scale for starter kits as well as possibly attracting die-cast and resin modellers into injection moulded models.

sticky fingers Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 I really hope they might venture into making some cars (and maybe commercials) that probably won't make it to the Vanguards die-cast range, a Victor FD series and Zephyr/Zodiac IV for starters please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
