Well, no female micronauts ever made it out to these shores anyhow. In Japan, in the original Microman series of toys,Takara made a female Microman figure referred to as Microman Lady Command. It was rather like a female pharoid figure in that she came with a Statue of Liberty shaped sarcophagus. There are modern microlady figure, (And female Acroyear figures!)created under Takara's New Microman series. Most notable were some DC comics figures that wre created some time ago, with a Microman Batman, Batgirl, and Catwoman being released. I believe most of these figures can be still found out on the web. Check out YouTube for the great posted vintage Micronauts and Microman toys commercials, as well as those for the spinoff Microman series called Daiclone, most of which were licensed by Hasbro and used in the Transformers toy line , Hope this helps for any interested in Microman/Micronauts toys! :) --Heron Wow, what a great page!

I can't believe I only just noticed the similarities between the original Micronauts setup and Kirby's New Gods...

Micronauts the toy - the big selling point was that you could take apart each figure and combine them into any combination. However, given that this was during the Golden Age of Small Plastic Parts....let's just say Commander Rann lost his pack very early on. Otherwise, great memories! Micronauts the comic ruled!
