I kind of want to get into Microman figures. I remember seeing one that looked really cool, like some kind of Ninja Robo House maid. Unsure what it was.
I'm doing a Dragonball action figure comic and I reckon a lot of Microman are in scale with the Hybrid figures. I want to get some "Android" figures, and maybe a base Microlady to use for a Chichi custom.

queenkittan, please post us a link when you do these comics! Lots of time involved in that. I'm sure you've seen the vintage Microman in the "for sale" thread, but if you just want figs to mess around, the newer (last 10 yrs) stuff from Takara, or Palisades can be had cheap, or close-out special. One store near me that I got some deals from, www.mugentoys.com |

Yeah that's the one! That'd actually make a good upgraded Android 18.
I had an ORIGINAL CHARACTER DO NOT STEAL in mind though, are there any other microladies with a similar style to that? I can't seem to find any. Are there more like that one? Are there any MicroLady bodies that are slightly shorter than average?(but just as thick). I want to make a custom character that's a little shorter and chubbier compared to most people.
There will probably only be a small few Micromen I actually want by the looks of it. Ah well. I'd say I mostly prefer the modern ones.

I have a hard time liking the vintage ones EXCEPT the diecast ones. Note that there is a great Jeeg and Geeg from this Takara series:  |

Wow Jack, that's an *amazing* gallery of Microman pics! Very nice photography, and a great assortment of classic figures! The Mini Robotman in particular caught my eye, and you're right -- it's everything it's hyped up to be and more. So far, I've only managed to snag a loose one that's missing some of the accessories, but he's still one of my all-time favorites. I noticed you also have a MIC M-003 from the New Microman line. Very cool! I've found those to be extremely hard to find, even without the case. Oh yeah, and the blue M-009 from the Bullsonic toy -- so sweet! I would trade my left tit for that figure. Do you still have him? BTW, thank you for your kind praise, and for bumping Geoff's sale list a couple of weeks back. I got side tracked during the holidays and forgot to update the posting, so your bump really helped. - Tom V. |

Nice Gakeen, Ed.
Those are some great pics, micromanzone! I'll have to go through them all when I get a little more time. Thanks!

Thanks guys! Product & object photography is my newest thing. And what better way to experiment than with small scale figures like Microman!
