Thanks for the links and the information especally about the 3 3/4 number which I have wondered about.

The other thing to note is to be careful of diecast cars in 1/18 as they seem to vary in how they did the scaling (looks like more to fit the box than actual scaling), motorbikes work well but you find that you may be unable to fit your 3 3/4 or 1/18 figures into a 1/18 car.

BTW the 25th anniversary line, while classed as 3 3/4 seems closer to four inch to me

I also often see wrestling and superhero figures besides GI joes in dio stories. Can anyone tell me what lines they belong too?

You speaketh the truth! I've bought various cars and bikes, bikes you can always fit to the 25th, but they are always a tad to tall for the cars (which sux).
So if you go looking for cars to fit them in, make sure before you buy it that they will fit. (this is for the 25th especially since they are taller then 3 3/4)

Nah. I am 99,5% a buyer, 0,5% a trader and 0% a seller. I just did a search on eBay. :rolleyes:

I have found that if you watch the cheap knock offs at Walmart/Target/kmart/biglots ect every once in a while you come across somthing really cool. For intance I recently purchased this horrible construction set because it came with is amazing crane. Don't get me wrong everything else in the set clearly garbage put the crane is great. Its in store now by the way.

Sometimes the tonka stuff is dead on too like there garbage truck or fire truck. Hell even the stuff you get a toysrus is great for the Oktober guard.
