If a minifig is about yea tall, a microfig is about one-something-ith of
that height.

Basically, anything significantly smaller than a minifig.  I generally
don't count creatures made from just minifig legs to be microfig-scale;
but rather vehicles which use, for example, a single stud to represent a
cockpit.

Micromachines with studs.

(...) That looks GREAT Sproat. But just give up, flip the wings over, change the red cones to gray 1x1 round plates, add a little to the rear of the body, and call it an X-Wing. Dead-on. -- Terry K -- (26 years ago, 14-Jan-99, to lugnet.cad)
