(...) This fact was hammered home after I did a couple of thinkgs on the weekend. 1. Played with my kids and build another 4-stud wide big rig. Small, realistic, high vroomability factor. 2. Started sorting my kids LEGO and found selection of (...) (25 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general, lugnet.trains, lugnet.town)

(...) Depends on what theme: Police and fireman have a graduated scale based on tenure. Medical staff have a similar but more progressive scale. Adventurers, Rock Raiders and Space work for a "finders fee". Castle only have scales on their mail. (...) (25 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general, lugnet.trains, lugnet.town)

(...) The thing that everyone is missing is this... This isn't Earth, they aren't humans. They are Legoans and they come from LegoLand. (I've seen proof!) It's a classic Xenophobe reaction.

Ahh, the ageless question :) Dave Eaton and I, in the course of our AT-AT Marathon (I'm still recovering ...) e-mailed each other regularly on issues about scale. For the most part, I went by the minifig's height, and said that it was equal to 1.8 (...) (25 years ago, 23-Mar-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general, lugnet.trains, lugnet.town)

I think the problem is here that Lego have contradicted themselves with their scaling in certain models. They produce trucks and cars at 4 stud wide, passenger planes at 4 stud wide, yet trains at 6 studs wide? I have seen trains on the back of (...)
