Model scales are a big part of deciding what aircraft is best for you. If you like scales that will fill a shelf with incredible detail, or a size that permits a huge variety of different designs in a small space, we have options for you. The larger scales of 1:48 and 1:72 leave plenty of room for customizable weaponry, deployed or retracted landing gear, and intricate or complex detail within a larger size. In contrast, smaller scales such as 1:100th and 1:200 or lower are more difficult to recreate, with miniature, delicate designs that permit more aircraft to fit in the same space on your shelf.
