It's what fits on your table isn't it? Also US cars tend to be much bigger than Euro ones and that's worth considering. For me it's mainly what I'm planning to do with them, like these two modern technicals...

One of the great things about diecasts is how good they are for rust effects... especially if you just rust them

Here is some comparison shots for ya.The fig is a Reaper 28mm heroic scale and they work well with the 1/43rds pictured.If you figs are bigger start with the 43rds and if you figs are more true 28s or based on washers I'd go with the 1/48.I do get mine at the dollar store for $3 a pop.Take a fig with ya or a wallet card with sizes marked.Posted ImagePosted ImagePosted ImagePosted ImagePosted Image
Hey Ink, GREAT stuff.

They look like 1:64 Matchbox scale.

I just got back into modeling and am in love with 1:64/1:72 scale with matchbox cars. I'm gearing up for Dark Future and Car Wars 5th ed
