FAQs

What scale are these figures?

These figures are designed for N gauge model railways, which corresponds to a scale of 1:160.

What material are the figures made from?

The figures are made from high-quality plastic.

Can these figures be used for scales other than N?

While they are designed for N gauge (1:160), they might be used in other small-scale dioramas if the size is appropriate, but they may appear too large for Z gauge or too small for HO gauge.

Are the weapons detachable?

The weapons are typically molded as part of the figure or permanently attached. They are not designed to be detachable.

How many figures are included in the set?

The set includes six police officers and one police dog.

How should I clean these figures?

Gently dust them with a soft brush or a dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using water or cleaning solutions, as this can damage the paint.

Can I paint or customize these figures?

Yes, the plastic material is suitable for painting with model paints. Ensure you use appropriate primers and paints designed for plastic models.

Troubleshooting

Figure will not stay in place

Apply a small amount of model glue or a thin strip of double-sided adhesive tape to the base of the figure before placing it on the desired surface.

Paint chipping or damage

Handle figures carefully by their bases. For minor paint touch-ups, use model paints specifically designed for plastic and N gauge scales, applying with a very fine brush.

Inconsistent coloring between figures

This is a normal characteristic of hand-colored items. If a significant discrepancy is present and bothersome, consider custom painting or weathering to unify the appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These figures are designed for immediate placement on your model railway layout or diorama. Use a small amount of model adhesive (such as PVA glue or specialized model cement) to secure them to surfaces if needed, especially on uneven terrain or where they may be disturbed.

Compatibility: The NOCH 36079 set is specifically designed for N gauge model railways, adhering to the 1:160 scale. They are compatible with other N scale model railway accessories and scenery from brands like NOCH, Marklin, Kato, and others operating within the N gauge standard.

Care: To maintain the appearance of the figures, dust them gently with a soft brush or a dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the paintwork and plastic material. Store the figures in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading or warping.
