Default Bruder Figure

Got a few of the new Bruder figures and thought while I was taking some pictures of other stuff I'd give some measurements and other photos for my fellow scale nerds. They're pretty perfect for the Tamiya Semis. He's only 5' in 1:14 scale but looks right inside the truck. It's funny because he looks like a giant in the 1:16 Bruder stuff he was made for.





You can see he looks a bit too short outside the truck.



With some accessories.



Think they cost 9 bucks. Not too shabby in my opinion.

Man Nate one bad move with the excavator and that shed will be toast. Great idea for a thread though now members can actually see what size they are and have something to compare them against.

Thanks for sharing the info. I had been looking at these figures for my stuff too. Though the Wedicos are 1/16, more like 1/15 scale. They'd probably work pretty good for me. I just bought a couple action figures today and they measure out at 4" tall too. Kind of short for most stuff, but they seeem to look okay, besides their super hero attire. Toating guns, knives, swords, and all that. I don't if a guy could repaint them or give them some new threads or not.....

Got mine from Outback. I guess since no one is a vendor for Bruder here that's ok for me to say

Looks pretty good and since there are plenty of bruder conversions he will look perfect in those. A little small next to the rig. I had made some reference pics of different sizes in this thread: http://rctruckandconstruction.com/showthread.php?t=293

I'll have to pick up a bruder figure and stack it with the rest.
