Sub-Short Scale Flats

I've got a 25.5" scale micro bass and a lefty version coming which appears to be around 28" scale from the picture and overall length. Can I get flats this short? I saw a very old thread that Goldtone once had some LaBellas made but they no longer appear to have any.
 
I was trying to scale from a picture. Both my and my son's mini basses are 25.5" scale. Raptor dimensions earlier in the thread.

"So the Raptor is 25.5" scale length, top load, and it's 34" from the butt of the bridge to the 1st string peg, 29" to the 4th peg. Tuners are slotted and will only pass 0.092"
 
My little sub scale Teisco with Goldtone/LaBella flats..absolutely great strings!
