A tad large for 1/16 scale and smaller than 1/10 but still these are interesting; and there's a size right on for 1:6 scale...

Mideast battle scenarios?

1/12 will work as most of those dollhouse kits used for burned out buildings are that scale.

Good find!

I shot them an email and told them of the 1:16 scale tank following. Suggested they visit here to see the large tank following and to consider doing their blocks in 1:16.


Here's the reply

Hey Joe,


Thanks for the email, we will check out RC Universe/Tanks! We are doing some development on different scales, there are some great niche scales that we'd love to tap into but haven't firmed up which ones we'll hit next. 1:16 is on the list of options though. Thanks for the kind words.




Thanks,

I'm always on the lookout for things like this. I've known of this other company for years and actually have a number of their sets:

I sort of hate to say it but I became fascinated by the dollhouse reralm after buying my late mom a dollhouse kit many many years ago as a christmas
present. The hobby was obviously well matured back then and has only gotten better as they all have today. Quite a number of 1/12 scale items have found their way into my armor hobby...
