Scale in minis is sort of...non-existent. If you put a Tamiya VW Beetle next to my Colt New Beetle, the Tamiya absolutely dwarfs the Colt. It looks like a school bus next to a golf cart.

Besides that, Tamiya refers to them as being 1:10 scale, when they're actually closer to 1:12.

Bring on those wacky out of scale bodies! It can only get better or weirder.
