I owned a bunch of them a while back (still cursing myself for selling
them at a game convention auction with a bunch of the Star Fleet Wars
ships). IIRC, the largest human battle tank (the one with two turrets,
the front being lower) was a little over 2" in length. Each race had
vehicles that went from this size down.

They weren't as clean as many of the modern brands of micro-armour
available today (or the newer GW stuff), but they were okay, especially
when you consider that the originals were most designed 15 or so years
ago (I believe).
