Nice car and George appropriately looks like an arrogant insubordinate SOB

 

[O.T.K]

Nice dioroma you got there looks great and for the patton car that's one nice piece.

Great looking diorama. That all works very well together. Nice set up.

A beautiful piece indeed! However, am a bit hesitant because I could not put any of my CS collection side by side with KC or Figarti.

N-P

N-P....

Do you mean AFV's or figures or both?? I have found that the AFV's are compatible but, there are variances in the figures more so, IMO with Figarti than with K&C and CS. Apart from one manufacturers stuff always being best with things from their own range I find K&C figures go really well with CS armour and vice versa

I have no problem mixing up CS & KC figures together. They are very compatible sizewise. When it comes to AFV's the old K&C ones are 1/32 in scale ( but all their newer ones are in 1/30) where as all CS pieces are 1/30 scale. So you have to take that into consideration when mixing them up. Otherwise they all look good together for me.

I have no problems with the figures. They are great and well sculpted. Will blend well with KC (but not with Figarti's or Honor Bound's)

My problem is more on the AFVs. A case in point is the M8 HMC...it is as big as the KC, Figarti and Honor Bound Sherman's.

CS may have the right scale but I already have a huge collection of Figarti, KC and Honor Bound collection and will rather stick with compatible sizes (I use KC figures to go with my Honor Bound and Figarti AFV's (unless they are on the background or I do photography).

For scale reference, I use plastic models (Tamiya, Italierii, Dragon etc.). Been on this since high school and have tons of them. If you would notice, these brands are consistent with their 1/35 scale. Monogram & Revell were the early pioneers in 1/32 and you could see the difference in size their AFVs (between 1/35 & 1/32). KC;s early AFVs are a lot bigger than Monogram's 1/32 AFVs as well as with Britain's and Frontline AFVs which are also in 1/32. So having all these in my collection, and in my observation and actual measurement, I would say CS is closer to the the 1/29 scale.
This is just my own personal opinion and why I am shying away from CS.
