Try 1:48, which is "O" scale in trains.  Seems to work out okay for us

Ok, I have not managed to read many posts in the last 4 weeks or so(I hold my
head in shame) due to work comitments.I have recently purchased a Panther
radio controlled model tank, 1.25th scale. As a teenager I used to have 1.35th
scale tanks etc. Now, I always took it as Lego minifigs where comparible
between 1/35 and 1/25, yet now when I take a 1/25 scale  German helmet to a
minifig it is still too small!! Yet the 1/25 tank matches the scale of my most
recent ww2 street and Lego Russian tank perfectly!! (pics not yet posted).so,
did Lego purposely design the minifigs as midget dwarfs or what?? I would say
they must be more around 1/20 -1/15 scale yet this would dwarf them to
comparible vehicles of this scale? I think this is relative to all minifig
trains, trucks and cars, I dont know exactly what my point is here other than
the question, has anybody actually agreed on a scale ?(noticing the 6-8 stud
wide train debate), as sometimes I thought my models may be too big in scale
yet now they must be too small!!
