Paul! Exactly right, use whatever is available and fitting to whatever piece! ... Cross scaling is a real boon when you think about it.

Now someone sculpt this please.!

The model shop I went into with my dad and my pocket money in the 1960's to buy an Airfix 1/72 Tiger Moth costing 2 bob is still there, as of a couple of days ago, there was an Airfix Tiger Moth in pretty much the same place as it had been in the 1960's.
The price is now £8.99. .
Still, at least the model shop is (nearly) the same .

I still have those running figures....

But no idea what to do with them..

Yet, despite of the gigantic leap forward in sculpting and casting quality I still have a soft spot for those 54mm Airfix figures and Monogram Merite's....

I remember these figures,but they were far too expensive for me,and I didn't have a clue what 1/25th scale was./badger
