OO gauge and HO gauge figures are slightly different and will look out of place if used on the wrong railway. This is particularly easy to notice if the figures stand next to a building.
How tall is a OO gauge person?
Well, a 6-foot tall individual would be 24mm tall and someone who is 5 foot 7 would be approximately 22mm tall.
What size are HO gauge figures?
Well, a 6-foot tall individual would be 21mm tall and someone who is 5 foot 7 would be approximately 19mm tall.
