It is rather simple that the vast majority of collectors prefer their figures in the large style. If they did not they would not be made in the scale they are. I think the likelihood that any of the manufacturers you have mentioned will actually change is as rare as the proverbial hen's teeth.

I would imagine that the majority of collectors don't really care about figure size and compatibility and that hardly any contact to manufacturers is made about it. If there was real discontent then we would see a change over night

I still know lots of collectors who buy the FOV armour and because their figures are pants buy from this hobby and don't care the differences in size. I would bet my collection that is the mind-set of the majority of collectors in this hobby and the manufacturers are listening to them

Thank you gentlemen.......If you have any questions about creating scenes let me know or visit my website.

If you note I commented on Figarti's figure Size ( Personal Taste ) I hope you understand I am not picking on any manufacturers or trying to put them down. But for the life of me I can't understand the concept of 1/28th figures with 1/30th vehicles, which is practiced by Figarti, K&C, TGM and TCS.

If anyone can enlighten be as to the benefit of this practice, I would greatly appreciate it. I think more and more collectors are taking notice of this practice and wondering why also.


Best

I understand what you are saying...... the majority want it that way....But why ^&confuse^&confuse ...It would have been just as easy to make them in scale.

Why would anyone prefer something that is essentially wrong.

There has to be some collectors / modelers into it, because TCS finally made 1/28th AFV's to match.....


I don't really care any more, because FL is doing it right, or I use the TCS 1/28th AFV's and it works fine


It just seems strange to me.....Yup I like my stuff deliberately out of scale ^&confuse^&confuse
