Microman Motorcycle w/sidecar?
Microman Motorcycle w/sidecar?
I keep looking at this bike over at smalljoes and getting tempted to get one but it's pricey and I'm not really sure how well it fits scale wise with the 1/18th xd stuff.
Does anyone have one that they could give a quick rundown on how it fits?

I emailed Corey last week about it and he got right back to me saying
"It's roughly the same scale, designed for 3 3/4" action figures (which Microman are) so it should display fine with other similarly scaled figures. I cannot guarantee that certain figures would or would not fit in the sidecar, etc. as I haven't tried it."
so it sounds like a good fit to me, I'm just hoping that someone on here actually has one that they've tried out with XD.
It's on Smalljoes for sale here:

The big thing with the Microman figures (especially thinking back to when they were sold as Micronauts here in the US) is that they are a bit "slimmer" and a lot more articulated than the standard 1/18 action figures.
But that bike IS tempting, even if just for static display as a "backdrop" for figures!

I was ordering some stuff from smalljoes today anyway so I went ahead and got one. I guess we'll see when it gets here. I'll post some photos for review, keeping my fingers crossed that it's in scale...
just as a sidenote, my order was processed and shipped in under 1/2 hour! so it's already on the way.
