The Commander Series Forum

I'm almost embarassed to ask this. But has anyone ever used thye old Galoob Micro Machines in their wargaming? Yes, the detail quality is low, but they could do in a pinch for aircraft and helos, I am thinking, since these vehicles play something of a perhipheral role on the battlefield in CWC. I figure the scale doesn't have to be perfect for aircraft. Anyone try this? Did it work all right for you?

HOW DARE YOU!!!



I always look in the toy sections at every store I go to, does that count? Never used micro machines (except for space-based gaming) but I have some matchboxes for AK47

Likewise - some civi vehicles from local cheap stores, which fit 15mm. Gave me 4 M35, 4 Hughes 500, and 4 6x6 armoured cars for sci-fi etc.

Hi Zephyr40K,

I use some of the Micro Machines to fit with 12mm Minifigs & 1/144 Trumpeter/Takara. The M88A1 American ARV is great and a good scale fit, also the M551 sheridan fits with this scale. The MIM-72A Chaparral ADV is a little on the large side but still usable & the M1&M60 are a little too small.
Hope this helps.
