Scale of Warhammer figures?

Figures are 28mm which equates to 1/60th scale. They don't look out of place with either 1/72 or 1/48. The tanks, etc are between 4-8 inches long . One of our club members combines the figs with 1/72 battletech stuff for some great dio's.

Thanks,

Don't get drawn into Warhammer. Their models are overpriced. I assume it's because of the small group they cater to. Warhammer kits are just plastic boxes that represent tanks.

If you are going to play warhammer 40k, you might as well make small cardboard boxes stick pencils in them and call them tanks. They would sever the purpose.

Unfortuanately, it seems hobby stores either sell Warhammer or they sell japanese Mecha.

my two cents.

The scale (in particular 40k) varies. You ever tried stuffing 10 tactical marines into the back of a rhino? or Land raider for that matter?

Littleebird, Take a look at this.
"So, in lieu of anything else that seemed worthy of the prize, we decided that Mike Major's Rhino Interior project was the most interesting one in the lot. While the interior of Mike's Rhino won't be winning any modeling awards (ya know, besides this one), it's a very cool and significant project because it definitively answers a debate as old as the venerable Imperial Rhino itself: Can this vehicle model actually hold ten Space Marines (and one crew member)? To answer this, Mike created seats, hinged doors and some stowage, and populated the innards with a full compliment of Marines (from the old RT Landspeeder model). The results are undeniable. You CAN fit ten Marines and a driver, with room to spare and hatches that close up tight! To see his article with a detailed explanation of the project, additional pics, construction tips and diagrams, get thee to Apocrypha 40K. For Mike's prize, he gets a $50 Gift Certificate from Hobby Workshop, a copy of 40K Konversions's "Music for Hammering" CD, an Award Certificate suitable for framing, and a pile o' 40K Konversions post cards with awesome full-color art by John Bergin. Not too shabby if you ask us."

Here are some pics of Mike's Rhino:

From my old warhammer days, the scale is approx 1/60, as Phil has allready stated. If you want to get into warhammer, you may wish to buy various kits to see what you like doing. Personally, I've never been much into imperial armour. I liked the designs of their Dark Eldar and Eldar kits, and I focused on these. However, their price cannot be denied, as they trully are quite expensive, especially for what you get. I never even played the game, I just loved the models, and I did have a lot of fun with them all. You could combine them with 1/48 scale armour kits (not too many around unfortunately) and they look quite good together.
