1:72 scale is a scale used for scale models, most commonly model aircraft, corresponding to one sixth of an inch representing one foot (or 1 inch to 6 feet). In other words, 72 of a given model placed end to end would represent the length of the real thing. In this scale, a man who is six feet tall would be exactly one inch in height. The scale was popular for aircraft because small fighters and large bombers were represented, and was practically the only choice of scale if a modeler wanted to have all aircraft types represented in the same scale.

  • I soldatini in plastica 1/72 sono una tipologia di soldatini in scala 1/72, una delle scale principali del genere, realizzati in polietilene (“plastica morbida”) o polistirene (“plastica dura”). La scala 1/72 in plastica è un po' più piccola di quella in metallo e varia dai 20 mm ai 23 mm. (it)

  • 1/72比例模型即是把實物縮小72倍的比例模型，是飛機模型其中一個常見的大小比例，這個比例原自工業革命後的英國，由於英國採用12進制的英制單位，也就是若把長1英呎的實物縮小成1英寸的話，這個大小比例就是1/12，所以，這些英制大小比例尺寸都採用12的倍數，當中包括1/72。 在這個比例，若把一個6英呎直立成年男人（大約高183厘米）縮小而成的1/72比例模型人偶，其高度大約剛好等於1英寸高度（大約高2.54厘米）。 (zh)

  • 1:72 scale is a scale used for scale models, most commonly model aircraft, corresponding to one sixth of an inch representing one foot (or 1 inch to 6 feet). In other words, 72 of a given model placed end to end would represent the length of the real thing. In this scale, a man who is six feet tall would be exactly one inch in height. The scale was popular for aircraft because small fighters and large bombers were represented, and was practically the only choice of scale if a modeler wanted to have all aircraft types represented in the same scale. This scale originated with the Skybirds and Frog Penguin aircraft model ranges produced in the United Kingdom during the 1930s and was subsequently used for aircraft recognition models by the Allies of World War II. More subjects and genres are covered in this scale than any other.Widespread in Western and Eastern Europe, Japan and Latin America, the scale is extremely popular in the UK but less so in Australia, Canada, and the USA, where 1:48 is more prevalent. Manufacturers of aircraft kits, past and present, in 1:72 scale include; Airfix, Frog, Novo, Revell, Italeri, Tamiya, Hasegawa, Heller, Monogram and Matchbox. In recent years this scale has also gained popularity for model military vehicles, and is also used for Japanese anime science fiction models, die-cast model cars, figures, and radio-control model ships, as well as soldiers.
