How big are the ones that iab has shown? I have not seen much to give them a scale, but I am guessing smaller than a quarter. Anybody able to get a shot next to a ruler?

Perhaps I may have to collect the tiny bikes, since I have no more room for bigger ones.

Overall, bigger than a quarter. But they are at work. I'll take a ruler to them tomorrow.

We race slot cars at our house when the snow gets too deep.

We belong to a scale model club and were offered this:

I wonder if I can get away with buying some of this stuff by pretending it's for my nephew?

With two teenagers in the house, my poor wife tolerates "everything" at this point.

Well, when it relates to her darlings she does. :)

By the way, I'm going to put these figurines on my seek and find list for my next trip to Bayern.
