Hello just just registered after lurking for afew months.

Well I was wondering if this gun transformable action figure is from The Transformer series. Basically its a small pistol and written on it while in gun mode is:

left side:
BROWNING-M1910

right side:
TAKARA JAPAN
MC-M1910

I have had this toy since I was around 5 or 6 (19 now) and I remember it had accessories like yellow bullets 2 silver guns and 3 hands (one could be shot which was really cool), and if I remember a little figure that did not move at all (not sure about this one). Also paperwork included was a little cardboard robot which I presume was for shooting at.

I am sorry for not having a pic available at this time but just posting this as soon as I registered. Any opinions would be cool

Definately sounds like Browning.

Speaking of which, I really want one of those. Maybe I'll buy it for myself for Thanksgiving.

How appropriate, a gun for Thanksgiving. I'll go shoot me a Turkey!

Awwww, the only thing is, this time it will be the foreigner giving YOU the gun, rather than the way the Pilgrims did it.

That's from the Micro-Change series (the predecessor to TF).
Pretty hard to find nowadays.

And IMHO, it looks a thousand times better than the toy they turned into Megatron.

HE should have been Megs, not the Walther P38

yeah no offense to megs but imho this guy blows him out of the water. he looks amazing!

a very nice toy that microman pistol, if its a genuine takara version it is rather desirable. for ultracool guns though there was a third microman gun........wait for it, a 44 magnum!! the robo mode is a bit assymetrical but very coool anyway. now that would have been a cool megs, a freakin 44!! kids would have been asking 'well do you feel lucky?'

I thought browning was from the gunrobo series of toys that takara had made which ended up becoming part of transformers.

browning was a gunrobo, but they did release him as a transformer, exclusive to japan in 88. after googling the 44 magnum robo, I gotta say browning is still the best looking in robot mode of the 3.
