Minifig Scale USS Missouri

Threaded View
Could someone test my math for me?

Assume a minifig is 6 feet tall.

Now, taking the USS Missouri dimensions:
Length - 887'  (270.4 m)
Width -  108'  (33 m)
Height - 210'  (63.9 m)

What is the length/width/height of the actual model?

I don't have a ruler/minifig handy, but I'm told that a minifig = 4
standard bricks tall = ~5 pegs tall.

That's giving me a length of 36.5 feet, a height of 4.6 feet and a
width of 4.5 feet.  Now, I know that when the scale shrinks, numbers
get closer together, but the width and heigh seem way too close to be
right.

And no, I don't think I could do it.  I'm just curious :)  heck, I
don't think I could do just one of the 16 inch guns :)

Easier; assume that minifig scale is 1:40 (that's indicated on the
Ferrari models).


6.76 m or 845 studs in minifig scale


0.82 m or 103 studs in minifig scale


1.60 m or 500 plates in minifig scale


Your math definitely looks wrong to me.

Play well,

Not the best news I've ever had but at least it wasn't a test =)

I wish I could figure out where my numbers went wonky, but thanks for
the sanity check.
