    I haven't even seen any Micro Machines in smyths lately, not sure if they're even still selling them.

    I got the Warren playset for my bith back in the day. It was a piano in the butt to put together but it was really cool. Really wished they made a Decepticon one back then as well.

    How well do Micro machine bases, play set work with Transformers Micro Master figures? Can Micro Masters fit on the micro machine tracks/roads?

    A Micromaster is IIRC 1.75x to twice the width of a Micro Machine.

    Smyths stopped stocking them completely, TK Maxx might have the odd playset.

    G1 Micromaster transfoming bots reissued/revised, or non-transforming smaller Micro Machines of G1 bots? Really, about the only thing the two have in common is "small size to pack more action into less space."

    and John Moschitta. I would jet the whole set just for an official Blur with a John Moschitta MicroMachines card back.

    would love to have a Micromachines playset with an Transforming Arc play set with battle stations like how they did the Bumblebee.
    If they are small enough to roll through Titans Metroplex.
    Currently I have some miniatures set up for both sets but would love to see something with a bit more playability.

    Oh and for this subline… I am completely fine with non-transforming. I want accuracy and fun playsets that represent original G1 sets please.

    Sooooo was looking on ebay for something completely different when this popped up in the suggested listings. Obviously you've got the multi-pack sets and the blind pack sets. According to the listing this is supposedly all the variants out there, Barricade is missing but they probably didn't get the BB set. Figured I'd post them for those curious since there really hasn't been any talk about these guys. Trying to find reviews or even how you get the variants like that yellow Op or Tan Megs is pretty much nonexistent. Assuming it's from the blind pack sets maybe.

    Oh God... I HATE chase pieces. That just gave these a strong move toward Hard Pass like the parent line.

    Saw a couple of the Blind Playsets at Target today, passed since I couldn't snipe the full set and I want a "targeting matrix" for optimal buying strategy to get everything before I even think about it. And now with chases in the mix...
