Well it certainly has been interesting! There are more "O" scales and a real variety of "O" gauges than I imagined.
There are 1:45 scales:
Of12 12 mm gauge used in Germany,Austria,Hungary, Poland,Danemark,Holland,Luxembourg,Switzerland,and Italy
Of13.3 13.3mm gauge Germany
Oe16.5 16.5 mm gauge world wide
Then there's 1:43.5 scale:
Of14 14 mm gauge Used in Great Britain, France, Belgium and Scandanavia.
Then last but not least there are the 1:48 scale odd balls
On2 12.7mm gauge used in U.S.A., Canada,Australia,New Zealand and Japan
On30 16.5 mm gauge used by odd lots of folks in the U.S.A., Canada, Great Britain and odd spots in the Commonwealth.
So until my Arttista figures arrive the only "true" 1:48 scale figure I have is an Air Gunner figure from an old Lindberg airplane kit which measures exactly 6 foot to the top of his leather flying helmet!
The bottom line is, there are three "O" scales, 1:43.5,1:45 and 1:48.
