Mini scaling help for Bolt Action WWII

So I've recently picked up the Bolt Action starter box set, Assault on Normandy. I've heard people say that the Bolt Action tanks are a bit small compared to the troops. (I don't really know, I do not personally own any of their tanks.) I'm guessing Bolt Action is in the 28-30mm range for size. I know there's hundreds of WWII model kits out there. They may not be for gaming, but if it looks the part andscales correctly, then why not use it. The kits just come in all sorts of crazy sizes. I'm just completely lost trying to figure out what size (if any) to go with the troops from that game.

Thanks!

Bolt Action & Warlord miniatures are 28mm scale so any vehicles to that scale are correct.....HOWEVER they just look small on the table top.
Warlord are bringing their range of scaled match vehicles up to date and doing a damn fine job on them.

I use Warlord British Paratroopers & British Army for Secrets of the Third Reich but use 1/48th scale vehicles as they "Look" more convincing alongside the figures.

Look toNetmerchants for their stock of 1/48th vehicles (There seem to be more German available in that scale)


Edit: Just looked at your Avatar - "Two Lumps!" Awesome.
