Can anyone snap some shots of the Cadillac Limo beside maybe a Matchbox/Johnny Lightning/Greenlight or something.........
I have been told they are not true 1/64th scale - some are saying "close enough", still others "too big" - just want to assess myself.
Thanks in advance!!

DCPDGuy -
Thanks for the picture. Those matchbox are noticably smaller than 1/64th scale and given the sizing of the M2, I am thinking it must be fairly close to 1/64th scale. I am also deducing by the picture that it would probably be close or in scale with castings from greenlight, johnny lightning and others with appripriate proportion.....
I think those Matchbox Castings are like 1/72nd scale based on fitting in the blister.
Thanks Sir.........

I can't see the pics here at work, but if they are of the new MB Sedan DeVille, then yes, they are considerably smaller than a 1/64. Not quite down to 1/72, somewhere in the middle of 1/64 and 1/72--maybe 1/68-ish.
EDIT--the base of the MB DeVille states 1/75 (I forgot MB puts that stamp on them)
