[WWI] 1/35 or 1/32?

[Magnus Berggren]

I know that the sizes in older kits are quite of scale a lot of the time, 
especially when it comes to figures. But, when it comes to armour and 
viechles, it´s more noticable. People tend to be shaped in different sizes, 
but serie produced tank and aircraft are usually within specifications.
