I couldn't find what I was looking for, Micromen. (Last time I say the word today, Gran!)

So did they not have any because they were sold out or they haven't received their initial stock yet? I'd like to get a picture on how these things are selling.

I don't know about the Hound sale. I didn't actually look for those. But isn't it usually whatever is online?

 

They had the newer Micromen figures in (4 Masterforce + 4 Arcoyear). I was looking for some from last year that come in the tube packaging. I assume they're selling well. The comic shops by me are sold out or really low.

Ah yeah! That's the Acrobeast or Acromonster set from the Microman 1999 line with Magnepower. I have it. This is a three pack the contains:

Vampiser, the bat;

Hellpion, the scorpion; and

Iguanite, the lizard.

Like a lot of the toys from that series, the parts are interchangeable. Based on large metal ball joints and corresponding magnetic slots, you can mix and match parts. Each beast has a second "robot" mode with a more humanoid head. These modes aren't the greatest, but it is a fun toy. I won the set from ebay for $12 not too long ago, although I had Vampiser alone for a few years. Right! They were sold individually too.

Good deal!

 

There's an eBay seller that has a lot of the Korean Micromen sets, but charges outrageous shipping. I once worked out a deal with him because I bought the Korean RiD Ultra Magnus, BWNeo Megatron, and Magnaboss at one time. Otherwise, he would have never given me a break on shipping. He wanted $14 each just to ship 'em from CA...

Going old school!!!

 

I actually have this toy from my childhood. I found it again when I moved with the styrofoam still!

 

It's pretty good. Combined, he stands about 8 inches tall I guess, maybe 7. Trying to remember. The two ships that form his torso and waist are diecast.
