Hi Trevor,

I thought that 20 - 25 mm figures are 1/72 scale? And I have some 30 mm
and 35 mm figures that are close to 1/48 scale.
Are we talking about one of those problems of manufacturers making
figures at one size, and claiming they are a different scale?

Here's my logic:
1/72nd of 180 cm (above average male height, but a reasonable starting
point) is 2.5cm (25mm).

Isn't that correct?

I always thought 35 mm figures were 1/48 scale.

Cheers
Andy
