I just spent a little time at Hobby Lobby getting some supplies. Based
on an e-mail exchange I had with someone on the "64 Vintage Vehicles"
mailing list, I looked into the 1:72 figure sets that H.L. carries. I
splurged and got the $9.99 set called "American Western Settlers +
Conestoga Wagon". When I got home I took my trusty ruler to the figures,
and all standing figures come in at about 5'3" to 6'0" (with hats) using
the S-scale ruler. The horses in the set are just under 7 feet tall. The
large cows stand 4 feet tall and the pigs are about 2'9". There are men
and women doing all sorts of work, and a few kids playing in the set.
Here's the manufacturer's web site:

My interest in the 1:72 figures was to see if I could kitbash some of
them into becoming drivers and passengers in my vehicles.
Enjoy,
- Peter.
