Interesting. Maybe they are 5mm pegs so they can perch in the hands of larger figures.

Also, does that airazor have ball-jointed thighs? Are those new

No the release is built the same, but they are not ball joints. More like mushroom swivels.

It is so weird how one of those Microns has the same name as the motorcycles from Ninpū Sentai Hurricaneger (the Japanese counterpart of Power Rangers Ninja Storm).

Some people remember the original power rangers as their childhood or whatever but Ninja Storm was like my life when I was a kid even before I got into Transformers.

It was bad ass.

For as cheesy as it started, I have to agree on the whole; now 'In Space', that show was messed up to be watching it as a little kid (I was ~7 when that was on, it dealt with some dark stuff )

All of the Decepticon's have the pegs, check out the backs of the other two. Probably the same for the Autobots. I'm guessing they rigged a weapon mode into them like a Psychobat sword or Windra spear.

What's with standing them up like they're on feet?

Emerje

Yeah, I think so, too, I guess that those are 5 mm pegs where the versions have those rectangular slots to attach them for example to Overloads shoulders. So I also guess that the Deployers from Takara have 5 mm ports instead of rectangular pegs in these spots.

No comments for this anomaly?



So all of the Microns in these packs have switched sides...

And grimlock's like Wheelie? Maybe?

Hubcap?

Wheelie makes some sense because of the 86 movie.

Yeah, but the face color and shade of yellow doesn't exactly scream Wheelie. Also, what? What does the 86 movie have to do with minicons from a completely different continuity?

Hopefully there will be a second wave with the Cyclones from the show as well.

I presume that there'll be an equivalent number of waves - always assuming they don't tank horrifically ion Japan. They shouldn't though, if q-transformers are anything to go off of
