Must be your imagination. You can't go beyond the limits of the scales.
EDIT: I also want to add that part of me was hoping this thread would have something to do with the 90s cartoon.

Are you using male, huge, or female? Not sure if that makes a difference but try the other ones and see if that helps?
The female model scales smallest of all, under four feet with flats or bare feet. Camera angles can give the illusion of other toons being smaller.
Well, I'm going to try again, but I even talked to folks in AP and they were smaller than I and they were like, 'Yeah you're taller.' Oh well. I'll have to play around with her a little more. Yes she is female and no she isn't huge. She's slim as a matter of fact.
Well I was gonna put up a picture but it won't let me.

Yeah, I used to love that show....but if I am gonna make a toon based on any cartoon it's gonna be Animaniacs.

In the real world yes. In this game, no. There's a reason that ankles look so messed up on heeled boots that don't get done quite right. It's because they have to fake it.

Don't forget the "Leg" slider as well as the overall body slider.

Perhaps this is too obvious to ask, but you didn't actually mention the height slider, which is above the other scales, just under the tabs that you use to select body type.

I actually figured it out this morning about 4am. The problem was that after I lowered the scales for body AND legs, I loaded up my costume (it is a saved costume) and that apparently was raising the legs back up and I wasn't realizing it. I loaded up the costume, went back to the previous page and lowered the scales again, and Wha-laa. Pint-sized perfection.

I thought saved costumes also saved the settings on the body sliders?

My Characters
Knight Court--A CoH Story Complete 2/3/2012
Not sure if this has changed but back when they fist introduced being able to save costumes I had a play around with editing the costume saves and it was possible to make smaller/larger than the sliders allowed by changing values in those files. However I don't know (can't now recall) what my eventual findings were. :/
I'll go and have a look now my mind is thinking about it. 
edit:
Seem to be able to get the smallest female body to be well under 4' tall. Though it is a bit finickety when loading into the character designer, that is some times when you load it the scales get reset to minimum slider scale, not absolute minimum. :/
The NPC is one of the girls in Icon in steel on the back wall.
Below are some oddities I found while experimenting:
One other thing to keep in mind is the head sliders. You can actually make your noggin pretty large or quite small. It's not entirely insignificant a change.

Can you go taller too?
can you tell me how to do both of these?
Warning -- when it comes to doing anything with files, I am a complete idiot. It took me a year to find the screenshot folder on my Mac.

You can only get it in the character editor, it won't load into the game. You need to edit a costume file and change the body type IIRC to six.|

As to their location I have no idea for mac as I'm a windows user.
