I was wondering what are the differences between these two products apart from the price?

The scale. One is 20mm (1:76 scale) and the other is 28mm (1:56 scale).

Thanks, I know companies always brand her minie's scale, but I know many who are very off their description. Anyone know the height of these minies (when they stand upright)?

I just want to make sure that they mix with my other ww2 minies.

What scale are your other minis? I don't have any minis from this company yet, so I can't compare them for you.

There's a useful collection of reviews on Frothers that covers a lot of WWII manufacturers - not sure how up to date it is though: http://wk.frothersunite.com/sc/pulp/ww2.htm

My WW2 minies are valient miniatures, which are branded at 1/72 but are about 26mm high.

Yeah I have looked at those. It really makes me want to buy them, but I want to be sure about the height. I collect Valient miniatures which are on average 26mm and these are 23.5mm according to PLASTICSOLDIERREVIEW. It's 2.5mm difference, is that a whole lot? I just wondered if is going to be such a huge difference. I don't want to buy them and then found out that I've wasted 15 quid.
