Footnote: My limited #modeltrain research suggests that #HOscale modelers would definitely be the ones who add the wildest details to their setting and lore.

Dove deep into #miniatures history this weekend, and reached two tentative conclusions:

Anyone who tries to define "25mm scale" without mentioning Jack Scruby is a fraud.

The various 25mm scales are probably just scale-creeped #HOscale train figures, anyway.

More on this in the future.

“CDs are cool again!”

The compact disc was introduced in 1982 and became in 1988 the most popular audio format. CD sales continued to grow until they peaked in 2002.

In 2003 CD sales began to decline and have been rapidly falling ever since. By 2017, CD sales had reached the same level as 1985!

“The great CinemaScope car chase”

Car chases are a popular subject with media and audiences due to their intensity, drama and the innate danger of high-speed driving, and thus are common content in fiction, particularly action films.

Although car chases on film were staged as early as the motor vehicle itself, the…

“Climbing Mount Goosefish”

Mountaineers set out to conquer Mont Goosefish, named for its striking resemblance to the famous fish.

They explore various routes, both with their bare hands and with the help of ropes, and have discovered a cavern.

“The restoration team”

This century-old piano was in dire need of a team of renovation experts.

Broken keys, ivory soiled by years of use, there's a lot of work to be done to make the piano operational again.

“A mess of connectors”

Whether for leisure or work, it's always a good idea to have the right connections for your electronic equipment. Between RJ45, HDMI, DisplayPort, RCA or Jack cables, it can be complicated to find your way around.

There's plenty to do when you're on vacation in a region like the Basque Country, ideally located between the sea and the mountains.

“Old school builders”

Lego bricks as we know them were invented in 1958, after several years of research and development into the material and shape of the bricks.

The bricks of that era can still be used today, along with more recent bricks, to build all kinds of models.

“Egyptian archeology”

Archaeologists are relentlessly searching the Egyptian desert. Fascinated by the mystery of the pyramids and the wisdom of the pharaohs, they spend their time searching for artifacts from the past, dreaming of a day when they might uncover secrets buried for millennia.

Here’s a side by side comparison of a Pocket #Tomica car (P049 vol.20 Toyota 86) vs a regular Tomica (No. 28 Subaru BRZ).

The #PocketTomica are typically prizes found in arcade claw machines or in gachapon machines. This particular P049 was won for ¥100 from a #clawmachine in the Tomica Shop at #TokyoStation (this retail outlet claw machine is generally more favourable chance in comparison to arcades).

Although this BRZ is a slightly later model, it can help in approximating the scale of the Pocket Toyota 86. The BRZ is labelled as “1/60” and is 71.30mm length; the 86 is 50mm length. The pocket Tomica scale would then be very near 1/87 or #HOscale

Hope this helps for any #hoscale #ho_scale #hobby or #modeltrain #modelrailway enthusiasts.
