Default Armageddon VS ScaleArt truck!

Here is a side by side comparison between the two trucks. My Armageddon and my Buddy rc13's ScaleArt.










I knew the ScaleArt would be way too small to go with my trucks.

Those are some nice models. Is the Armageddon bigger then Tamiya trucks? It sure dwarfs the Scale Art model.

It's the perfect size, just a tad taller like it should be since it's an 8x4 and needs ground clearance for those heavy hauls in the dirt.

The ScaleArt trucks are 1/16 scale while Tamiya's are 1/14 scale so there is going to be a big difference size and dimension wise.

Most of the German stuff is 1:16, including Wedico and Scale Art.

Not too much smaller, but it is noticeable. The construction gear gets away with it most of the time because the machines are larger, ie. 966 weighs 23 tons and is nearly 3m wide

Cheers,

Marketing version:
1:16
Actual:
1:14.5

Also I am not sure how close Tamiya is to 1:14 as it might be closer to 1:13...

Either way Tamiya is bigger than the models from Scale art or Wedico.

AP
