Part of the new Microman series, this is from the set of four Acroyears, which are the bad guys of Micromania. Eventually I'll get more new Micros but this Acro just screamed to me...
AX-13 Acrovoltech. (High volt electricity not included)

I'm a sucker for things with a brain in a bubble, so he's tops. Now like the oldschool micros, they're about in the same scale, fully posable (moreso than the older lot), and feature vacu-metallized heads and interchangable parts.

His body's a light opaque/clear purple with various designs and insignias printed on. His head's this skeletal alien-like big brained thing, but he also comes with a classic Acroyear-style head (seen in the scan above, attached onto his pistol). He even comes with an embossed, clear base, which he can't use when he has his foot things attached- and a bag full of 8 extra varient hands. Some for holding weapons, some for kung-fu, some for dramaticy action poses.
So ya he's like some classic Martian meets Microman mixed with an iMac or something. Enough analogies....Pics?

I played with Kaos's set the other night, very small and very fun toys... [img]wink.gif[/img]

TCM- Explosion toys had them up for preorder, they may be in stock by now. I grabbed mine for retail price on Ebay. I may poke around for a Divemaster Roberto microman next so long as these guys don't sell out too fast. Big bad Toy store sells them in sets too, only the Masterforce set sold out fast I think. I haven't been to that site in awhile. The Microlady set is up for preorder though!
Edit:Screw Explosion toys, Killertoys has them in stock for $5.95!
Wolf- Explosion and or Killer Toys may have Batman micro in stock...I know BBTS sold out pretty fast, but the Flight Batman is probably still in stock.
I like microman and I like batman (to a degree), but I myself will skip the MicroBatman.

Awesome man, thanks for the heads up! I have been meaning to start collection the modern Microman stuff for sometime now, and I think this dude is giving me the extra kick int he ass to do so.

I just ordered...
Divemaster Roberto
AcroScorl
AcroVoltech
... from KillerToys, can't wait to get them. If I dig them as much as I think I am going to, I will order some more. I think I am going to pre-order a Batman.
The chicks look like they are going to rule, I hope Joe gets those in too!
Thanks again for the review and KillerToys heads up CM!
