I've been looking into scibor 28mm models for some 40k special characters and the like. are they too big for use as regular power-armored marines? are they too big for terminators? fill me in if you have experience with this. pics would be awesome.

I have the Scibor Chaos Master and he's about twice the height of a marine, without factoring in the ridiculous base
They're massive for anything that isn't a Primarch or mutated

However there was this blog somewhere where someone actually converted normal marines into super big leader marines with smaller infantry swirling around them. Anyway point is it can work although it might need some work and thinking, bases can be changed.
Not speaking from Scibor experience.

Life is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless and perfunctory gift nobody ever asked for. Unreturnable because all you get back is another box of chocolates. So you're stuck with this undefinable whipped mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down because there's nothing left to drink. Sure once in a while there's a peanut butter cup or a English toffee, but they're gone too fast and the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits of hardened jelly and teeth shattering nuts. If you're desperate enough to eat those all you've got left is a. An empty box, filled with useless brown paper wrappers. |

Here is a pic comparing the sizes of some regular 40k doods to the Scibor stuff. The second guy from the left is a Templar SF Knight, the middle guy is a SF Templar Knight Body, and the guy on the right is the Eagle Knight (supposed to be Rogal Dorn so the scale would suit a Primarch, cant wait to paint this one up). As you can see some are power armour sized and some a much larger, the problem is I didnt see anything about the exact sizes on the website.

Strange how the guy in the middle is much shorter than the others. Must make ordering them a bit confusing.

they don't make it clear on the website which model is what size. I thought they were all like the resin guy on the left in the above pic.

The USS Orinoco was a Federation Danube-class runabout that was in service with Starfleet in the late 24th century, attached to Deep Space 9. It was outfitted with a sensor pod.

most of the scibor minis would be considered true scale space marine sized imo
