1/35 Scale Plastic Model Military Figures (2024)

FAQs

How big are 1:35 scale figures? ›

To figure out the approximate fractional scale of a figure, divide 1,829mm (roughly 6 feet) by the figure's millimeter scale. A 54mm figure roughly equates to 1/35 scale (actually 1/34), but could be used for 1/32 scale, too.

We can see that as the ratio gets closer to 1:1, the size of the scaled item is getting larger. It makes sense then, that 1:35 scale is just about twice as big as 1:72 scale.

1/35 scale. Length: 230mm, width: 143mm.

The 1:72 scale is popular among both military vehicles and figure modellers. It is also used for model ships. This scale provides modelers with various choices in available kits and accessories. An appealing option for enthusiasts who wish to build and display a diverse collection of models.

For example, to get the decimal equivalent for 1/35 (1:35) scale, divide 1 by 35 and you get . 0286 (rounded up). For easy reference, the Scale Conversion Chart shows decimal equivalents for common modeling scales.

1:43 scale - The most popular scale for model cars worldwide. This scale was made popular by Dinky in the 1930s as it was compatible with O gauge model railways.

At 5.1cm the 1/35 figure actually converts to about 178.5cm (~5' 10") in 1/35 but in 1/32 would be 163cm (5' 4") tall. However, some 1/35 figures are somewhat taller (~5.3cm/5.5cm) which puts them in the 170cm (5' 7") to 175cm (5' 9") range in 1/32.

No there is a big difference between the two so I would not mix them. And when I say big I mean noticably different. 1/35 figures are almost twice the size of 28mm, which is closer to 1/56.

In general 1/48 has fewer pieces and is easier to build. We are having a 1/48 group build right now. If you decide to give it a go, look us up in the GB section. I only do 1/35th armour, and from what i can tell, there is a far wider se3lection both of the kits and accesories in 35th than in 48th.

1:35 scale is the most popular scale for model military vehicles, with an extensive lineup of models and aftermarket parts available from a wide variety of manufacturers.

How to measure a 1:35 scale? ›

1/35th scale is determined by measuring the length of a model and then dividing it by 35. This will give you the size of the model in inches. You can then use this measurement to compare to the size of an actual tank.

A 1/24 scale diecast car is generally about 16 - 20cm. Many of the cars made in the smaller scales (1/32-1/38) are actually made so that the car will be exactly 5 inches long, regardless of the scale. The 1/64 scale cars are a similar size to "matchbox" or "Hot Wheels" cars, usually 6 - 8cm.
