And then there are all the scales I build at :)
Double-width Minifig = 6 to 10 wide vehicles with room for at least
two minifigs side by side. My models at this scale are usually
8 wide, but some people build 6 wide ones.
Miniland Scale = the scale used in Legoland Miniland parks. This is
slightly smaller than Technic scale.
ModelTeam Scale = bigger than Miniland scale, but still a tiny bit
smaller than Tecnic scale. These models use the 6 stud diameter
6 hole wheels. This varies, however, since <set: 5571> and a
few others are not built at this scale.
Or any other convenient scale, as long as the proportions are close :)
