I'm looking into getting a Harley to go with some figures I'm working on. I have a 1/6th Indian, but I need a Harley and finding one in 1/6th at a price I can afford is not easy.

How big of a size difference is there between 1/6th and 1/8th motorcycles? Would I be able to get away with taking pictures of standard 1/6th figures on/near the 1/8th Harley?

Thanks!

The difference would be pretty striking. Even most 1/6 motorcycles tend to be under scale. I’m a biker, and it bothers me considerably just how small (or condensed) most bikes are in this scale. You may want to check out this thread if you haven’t already:

Thanks! That's what I was afraid of.

There are Japanese model kids for HD like the one in Terminator. But you could be looking at anything between 600 and 1200 bucks on ebay.

Not to mention the insane amount of work to assemble.

Well I mean it's a model kit.🤷🏼‍�
This hobby wouldn’t be what it is today if it hadn't been for people customizing and innovating.

Hot Toys offers lots Disney licenses for those what ready to play or display.
