I have been wondering for sometime now. Which scale has been around longer and which scale has more variety of airplanes and airlines to its name. 1:500 or 1:400? I have a collection of about 48 1:500 planes mostly herpa wings. ALthough my goal is to someday have 500 models. It would be nice to have them be all the same scale but i wonder if there are that many 1:500 models out there? Is it normal for someone to switch it up a bit and add some 1:400 models in their collection? How many of you actually do this and also how does it look if you place them into an airport diorama?
