ElastoWit Figures

ElastoWit Space Opera set in 54mm.  These figures are a bit chunky and seem more like 1/32nd scale figures to me, about 54mm in height but with thicker bodies, arms and legs than most 54mm figures.  They are molded in a soft rubbery plastic, very nice, no flash, no mold flaws, excellent workmanship on the casting.
Flash Gorden with this ray gun.
His jet pack on the back.
Note the details on the helmet.
The little crater on the base provides a nice detail.
Buck Rogers, with this ray gun and sword.
Nice cape for those daring rescues.
Cape is removable for a different look.
I think he looks good either way.
Excellent work on the ray gun.

 They are made in Ukraine, I had no problems with payment, or customs.  The package was in great shape when it arrived.  They took paypal without an issue.

1/32nd scale is 54mm?

What does 54mm scale mean?
A measure popular among military miniature hobbyists is that of the height of an average figure in a particular scale. It originated in Europe. This is normally measured in millimeters. For instance, "54mm scale" refers to 1/32, where the height of an average standing soldier would be 54mm, or 2 1/4 inches tall.

Yes, all of that is correct.
However typically in real life 54mm size figures tend to be thin over all and 1/32nd scale figures tend to be thicker. So while in theory the two should be interchangeable in practice they are often rather different.9
Also different companies measure 54mm differently. Some measure from the bottom of the shoe, others from the bottom of the base. Some measure to the eyes, others to the top of the head, and still others to the top of the headgear, resulting in different size figures, sometimes in the same set!
Thanks for reading and commenting.
