schleich scenery

Post by aferguson » Fri Jul 23, 2010 10:15 am

for those unaware, Schleich makes a variety of trees all of which are more or less 1/18 scale. There are fir trees, oaks, beech and umbrella trees. Can't provide a link, just search yahoo/google for 'schleich tree' and you'll see them.

They are also coming out with a nice hedge in september which will be useful for normandy dios, among other things:

Do you have a price?

They were supposed to come out with a water tank trailer that would have been close to the ones on RVN. Haven't seen anything on it.

I wonder if Target and/or TRU stores will carry these scenery pieces...?? If so, I'll definitely have to be on the lookout. The Target & TRU stores in my neck of the woods usually have a nice selection of Schleich Horses and other livestock, which I've always thought were a very close match to 1/18.

How do you do a 1/18 diorama? I barely have room for the models I have now :lol:, let along add trees and things.

Of course the wife would be more than glad if I took them outside :)

I really like Schleich scenery, but it's extremely pricey.

Their figures (and corresponding scenery, buildings, etc.) are actually a little bit smaller than 1:18.

I'd say 1:20.
