Diecast Panzers (1 Viewer)

[katana]

Actual 60mm figures as measured from top of base to head; can work realistically with some FOV and 21st Century Cold Steel Armor. Some of these models are between 1/31 and 1/30 scale and provide an economical means to build multivehicle dioramas.

The FOV Jagdtiger is one of the last FOV Panzers made and it is 1/30 scale. Perhaps FOV was moving to 1/30 scale to become competitive in the 60mm Toy Soldier market! The FOV Jagdpanther is 1/31.

The 21st Century Cold Steel Kingtigers, Panzer IV and Stug IV also measure about 1/30 scale.

The FOV M26 Pershing is 1/30.

The photos show these Panzers with 60mm figures from WB and Figarti

That’s a good idea... I’ve seen other discussions around this forum about the actual scale of some of the FOV vehicles and was surprised some were a bit larger than 1/32. I have collected FOV and 21st Century 1/32 items since the beginning and long before I got into the premium 1/30 scale proper. It was obvious the FOV Jagdtiger (a later FOV model) was much larger than 1/32 scale, but I didn’t know about the Pershing and others. I have had some extra First Legion figures displayed with some of my FOV 1/32 armor and they seemed to fit pretty well.

I have the STUG. It looks great with the figures. I did not know about the pz IV.

Some Panzers are available in diecast that are not available in 1/30 Polystone. The FOV Jagdtiger is close to 1/30 and has only been produced by K&C in polystone and that was long ago and quite rare.
