type gift set as the basis for Transformers’ Megatron, but with the plastic bullet firing function and pointy sword removed (though t he parts used to convert the attachments into a gun turret platform that seats a Microman figure were retained). The original MC-12 Wather P-38 in black and brown was skipped in favor of the more impressive U.N.C.L.E. Of the remaining MicroChange toys, most will be instantly recognizable to Transformers fans, though of the Gun Robo, MC-7 Browning M1910 and MC-11 S&W 44 Magnum Robo never made it to the western line. It’s also worth mentioning here that the original Watch Robo was actually 3 different robots–each color had a different, unique head sculpt. This is probably because by this point Watch Robo was spun off into another Takara series separate from Microman, Watch-Q (released in the west briefly as the Kronoform watches). The rest of the catalog briefly sums up the prior regular MicroChange releases, with the omission of MC-06 Watch Robo: As mentioned in part 2, while Micro-Scope would later get re-used in Transformers as Perceptor (and later the Microman color-accurate Magnificus), Scopeman was another Microman-only robot, for reasons that remain unclear today, given that its design seems to fit in well with the ones that were rebranded. MC-19 Scopeman and MC-20 Micro-Scope are the last new samples shown from the “ Full Use” (or “Practical Use”) MIcroChange Series, both with working optics. At last we come to the final portion of MicroChange Microman Secret File.
