Hey all.

I've got a question that's probably been asked before but I've searched through several posts now and can't really comprehend a definitive answer.
I've been looking at the reaper mini Chronoscope line which says its 25mm scale. All I really want to know, is Games workshops Fantasy the same scale?

Any help would be appreciated or if possible a chart of sizes or something that I can reference for the future.

Thanks

What you need ideally are comparison photos which show you exactly what size they are in relation to similar GW stuff.

In case you haven't come across this before the problem with something like "25mm scale" is that that is not a scale, it's a nominal size. And what's supposed to be that height, anything and everything, just an average dude, or what? On top of that some measure to eye level, others to the top of the head so you can see how much inconsistency there might be between things that are supposed to be the same scale. Even a single range can begin to drift in size too, over time and with different sculptors (this is one aspect of scale creep).

I thought all the reaper stuff had a scale near it? Like this fella:

Most GW minis are bang on 35mm so from what I can tell Reaper stuff is a smidgen smaller. I think this will be fine since the model I wanted is female. I found this a little while ago the 4 in the middle are reaper minis.

Although tbh you can see the guys a complete dribbly from the fact that the lines get higher the further right they get haha.
