Those look like Plasticville buildings....which would mean they were probably the right price...Just make sure you get the O scale. You can find them on EBAY quite often too.

Yep, Plasticville, I have a few, I recommend the moble homes. You can't have trailer trash, unless you have trailers. :lol:
They look great and are very cheap.

No guys, if you look through that list on the link there are some European buildings a hotel and factory said to be by a company called Faller?
I have a lot of Plastciville buildings and they arnet form that range
They are pretty fantastic, I do agree! That Post Office would make a great building for any table.
I just 'googled' faller buildings...It seems they are a German company, but from what I can see, the mostly do HO scale (which roughly means HALF O scale). That would make them too small for most 28-32mm figs.
Unless there is a line of larger scale...I think the 1:45 scale may be a misprint... But still...the price would warrent further investigation....

Faller are very nice, quite expensive and too small for 25mm wargaming. Scaled as they are for HO scale they might even be a bit small for 20mm figures.
For 20mm the ancient (ex-Airfix) Dapol range is a better size but it is mostly rather British, specifically English in appearance which is not always a good thing (insert cricket joke here).
For 25mm the ancient (1950s) but American Plasticvile range fro Bachmann is perfect. There is a very nice page on how to adapt them, you should find it if you Google for Combat Zone Chronicles.

FALLER is a famous german brand. They've brillant models but for smaller scales (1:80 and below). I'd love to see them work on 1:60 to 1:43 in order to have something compatible .... Yet few hope this dream comes true
