To raid the Lemax displays for usable figures!
Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Lowes, Michaels, etc. all have slightly different ‘collections’
And they are usually about half what the hobby store wants for model RR figures!
Just make sure what size you need, as the figures can range from about 1/32 to 1/24
Quick tip: Got a dollar in your pocket? US currency bills are are 2.61 inches wide and 6.14 long. How about a credit card? They are 2 1/8" high and 3 3/8" inches wide. Useless trivia? Hold a figure up against the bill and the card. See anything?
A dollar folded in half is 6 feet in 1:24. The other dimension is pretty close to the proper height of a figure in 1:29. That credit card is 5’ 8" wide in 1:20…
