Hello all,
Not really a Car modeler, but I was wondering if there was a company that made 1:35th scale car kits?

thanks.

Littlebird,
Tomy makes (or did make) a range of 1/32 scale cars - there was a Merc 300SL Gullwing, a Jaguar SS100…
Gunze Sangyo also make 1/32 scale cars…though I don’t know about 1/35 scale.
You might try Hobby Link Japan - they have all sorts of things that never make it onto our shelves. Have a look at:

Also, try Sherriff’s Mini Cars in Sydney. They have a line on all sorts of amazing stuff.

None out there that I know of. You can use 1/32 scale cars, traucks, etc. I have used them alot in dioramas with 1/35 scale military vehicles and figures. They are close enough for me. Monogram and AMT used to make quite a few that were snap together and were detailed enough. They are hard to find now, but are often found on Ebay. Do a search for 1/32 scale models. You can look in my gallery to see dios with 1/32 scale autos mixed with 1/35 scale military vehicles.

Very cool collection HeavyArty, and yeah 1:32 cars look pretty darn good next to 1:35 military vehicles. Thanks for your help!

I’m was asking the same question myself. 1/35th scale cars would be great for dioramas. 1/32 would probably do, but still not much variety.

For a decent size comparison(as well as what they look like crushed), the modelr channel website, did a video of a Sherman Tank, crushing a Volkswagon, and a Honda. It’s pretty cool. Just google, “the modelers channel” and you will find the site. It’s a good resource for all of us and I think the site has great potential. especially as a cable access show or something.
