A quick scale question.

Feel free to discuss anything about any of the thousands of Transformer toys here. Anything from Generation 1 all the way to the soon to be released, the never to be released or the hope to be released is fair game! Want to show off your stuff? Please post your's and see others in the Transformers Collections Forum.

A quick scale question.

Are Movie Barricade and Classics Mirage roughly in scale with each other, and are either of them in scale with either Cybertron Downshift or G1 Hot Rod?

Pretty much all Deluxe Car modes are "in scale" with each other, plus or minus a multiplier (about 1/36 - 1/33 or so). Non-cars like Payload, Dropkick, and Longarm tend to be a mite too small however.

The fact that Classics Mirage and Cybertron Downshift are fictional vehicles (though Downshift DOES resemble any number of 70's muscle cars) makes that scale thing FAR more flexible, as well.

They are close in scale, but not identical.

Come to think of it, they actually are alot closer in scale than you'd think, he'd need only be a smidgen taller and longer...

I don't know who you're talking about here but thanks, folks! Looks like I'll be buying Mirage and Barricade soon.
