6mm model buildings and Z Scale compatability
TimeCast
Historic Buildings in Miniature



Our 6mm scale buildings are intended for use with historical miniatures games, and are compatible with ranges of miniature figures produced by a number of different manufacturers - most of whom seem to have different ideas about how tall the average person is!

 In order to ensure maximum compatibility with the different figure sizes, we have designed our buildings and accessories to an average scale of 1:260. 

The photos below show a variety of TimeCast 6mm models with a Marklin Z gauge boxwagon for comparison. As you will see, the difference between 6mm scale and Z scale is not noticeable.

This picture shows a mix of our Modern German (Range 23) and our Napoleonic German (Range 20) buildings. The boxwagon and track are Marklin Z gauge.

This particular village module always reminds me of a small village I visited near Hanover.

A close up of two of our Belgian houses (code 6/001) with a Marklin boxwagon for comparison. This picture shows a selection of our 19th-20th Century Belgian buildings (Range 6), with a Marklin boxwagon and a ruler for an indication of the sizes.

Please note that TimeCast models are not toys. They may contain small pieces, or white metal parts, which may cause a choking hazard and are therefore not suitable for children under 12 years.
