Very cool!  Love how the people in the scenes almost tell a tiny story in each diorama.

Good find - I'm guessing it's at least 1:35, and perhaps larger.  The figures are likely custom made for this.

 

I did get a bit tired of the flipping scenes.

I totally approve.  :)

 

It looks like most of those scenes were from the 1955-1965 period, a time when Japan experienced their "Economic Miracle." The vehicles in those dioramas looked like it was from that period, also.

I wish that the video poster had put who did the work in the description.  It's wonderful work and I would like to see more.

This is a mix (slideshow) of various works, mostly static dioramas. There is one N scale around the beginning, one Tomytec diorama around the end and another N scale right at the end. There are some Tomica diecast cars too. The rest is somewhere around 1:35 but i could recognize some 1:12 accessories and at least one posable figure. One of the large sized models are from a museum exhibit, while many of them are from diorama exhibitions (i can't read the titles but some are visible).
