The ones pictured above seems to be in the scale 1:87 who is the normal scale made by Herpa.
Is the 1:160 scale you refer to the same scale as for the smallest miniature trains from Märklin?

Anybody with info on that - DeadCanDance maybe?

Unfortunately I have no information about those! But I'd love to see them too!

By the way, those Herpa 1:87 models look awesome!

The back of the box states 1/160 so I would hope they are,they are new from herpa.

You are absolutely right wizgleeson, it says (in german) "Scale 1:160" - very interesting, I was totally unaware that Herpa produced models in this scale - I´ve got some in 1:87 and they are approx 4 cms long (I really thought they must be around 2 cms, but they were not - just measured my Laser Blue R56 S made by Herpa, and it was 4 cms).

The one´s you´ve got must be the smallest MINI models in the world, very impressive with the details and stuff in your pictures
