ARCH!!! Needing to vent I finished painting three French civilian figures and built a Styer vehicle. Next were the German officers and two civilian women form MasterBox the one with the American Soldiers celebrating with two women on their arms. I ordered German officer figures specifically posed with their hand on their hips to accommodate the women's arms through the officers arms. The women were perfect......or so I though when I put together the women figures and placed them next to the German officers the women towered over the skinny and short officers apparently 1/35th in the Ukraine means 52+ mm. Just wanted to vent tahnsk for listening. Let the women could be German jokes begin

Could you post a photo of the dilemma? It could be solved by some crafty cutting of the legs, but all depends on their torso to leg ratio...

Ouch - you've just run into a pretty common problem with figures. There are usually ways to position the different scales far apart to make the difference less apparant. But I think the position you need won't let you do that.
