    I wanted to make a custom pilot for Biotron that looked like a small version of him. Mixed parts of Microman Bobby and Barnes together and made this...

    IMG_20180607_091042636~3.jpg

    Then I designed it this 3d printed head...

    Found this page in a 1985 catalog recently. These are the rare second recolors of the Giant Acroyear and Battle Cruiser. Barely saw any release.

    When I was a kid, I could never find Micronauts in the stores, but I did see them in catalogues and such. I loved the look of the background on the boxes and figure cards like this. And the commercials were friggin cool as hell, too.

    A pair of customs from my Shapeways store. There is a Microtron with the entended and articulated arms I designed, along with "Microguy", a completely new figure based on a half-scale Microtron.

    Just spent a weekend copying all the pieces of Acroyear II into CAD. Made two kits on Shapeways from these designs.

    First is a guy I call Super Acroyear! He has a cape replacing his jetpack, new recolors, and a built-in wide stance of 5 degrees. He even has two recolors that I call Bat Acroyear and the Spartakian Micronaut Hunter.

    Second kit is a 150% upsize which retains 5mm pegs, and also has the wide stance. I call him Big Acroyear II.

    My 150% size version of Acroyear 2 was a big success! Already sold some on Shapeways.

    Still uses 5mm holes and pegs too.

    Hasbro can't seem to get off it's behind and make new Micronauts designs, but Shapeways has it covered..

    Needed fins and a ski for the Star Defender, so I modeled my own.

    3D printing and Microman are such a perfect fit. Hasbro needs to get on that.
