I recently san an episode of the 1970's Sentai series JAKQ plus the commercial for the figures. Each came with a henshin capsule just like the way they transformed on show. I wonder if Popy and/or Toei Studios try to match the success Takara made on the original Microman in the form of a live action series followed closely by the toys? AFAIK Go-Ranger (the team before JAKQ) didn't transform via capsules or henshin-brace. Could my theory be true?  |

Yeah, from what I recall they actually got in trouble with Takara over that toyline, which is why they didn't do any more quite like it and it is omitted from the Chogokin mook.  |

Popy also did a Spiderman version of the same toy type as well.

That makes sense. I don't see the Popy Microman'esque JACKQ toys ever for sale....
