Hey M! I've managed to translate that pamphlet by snapshotting it and using Google translate. Here it is... MICROMAN STORY Microman Story A long time ago, there was a star called Micro Earth, which has advanced civilization, far beyond the earth. Using the supercomputer "Michrom 2000", the Micro Earth's Space Astronomy Bureau used the supercomputer "Michrome 2000" to confirm that it had come out of the field of Xing Micro Earth, and that it had become a part of the atmosphere. If Acroyer was picking up the module, but was conquered by the conquest of school space, he was attacked by an acroman (Acroyer), and the dimensional generations reached Earth, He challenged Acroyer, who had just begun a violent territory, to a wish while keeping his robots and machines in place. Put in, the member dimension generator and the group Tamichrome 2000- are terrible weapons, so the area is completed with 10 Microman shop Salam. The romantics created a reckless mech and worked with the boys of geography in an attack from a different dimension of 7 Cloier, especially in the instep painting axis "Mother Cosmos". However, the amount of micro-earth in the Dogo swift field seems to be that Acroyer's man is also a victory.

Hey Audie. Thanks for translating and sharing the Microman story here. It’s certainly interesting to finally know what it means. Cheers M

Definitely informative. It's kinda odd how no one talks about Diaclone & Microchange/Man Toys when it comes to collecting these type of things, And then everyone's jaws drop when someone pulls anything from Diaclone out. Great video as always man.

I think no one really talks about Diaclone and Micro Change because lot of collectors are only interested in the latest and greatest figures. I think another reason might be that pre-transformers are really difficult to find for a reasonable price nowadays. I bought my Micro Change Condor from a comic shop a number of years ago for $20 CAD. That was quite a deal. Thanks for your ongoing support, my friend. Cheers M

LOL...no, that definitely doesn’t have the same ring to it. I’m glad you enjoyed the review. I love collecting and reviewing pre-transformers figures. Sadly you don’t see them very often any more and when you do, they’re always extremely expensive. I should have picked up more of them years ago.

Thanks for checking out the video, Joe. Yeah, the carded Diaclone Condor is pretty sweet. The Ravage one would be a nice companion piece if I can eventually find one for the right price. I think people don’t talk about these figures for a few reasons. They have gotten ridiculously expensive and many collectors are mainly interested in the latest figures that are being released. Cheers M

Nice carded unpunched Condor. Very sweet pick up. Hope you still have him . I acquired both a unpunched Condor and a matching unpunched Jauguar in minty condition recently. Both are off to be graded to protect them and retain their value. That art work is some of the best we ever got for these 2 cassettes

Hey Audie. Yes, it’s hard to believe that many of these designs are 35 to 40 years old. The artwork was really special back the. but I just say that we are seeing some cool artwork again with more recent Transformers lines. For example, google Siege Omega Supreme and take a look at the box. It’s very cool in my opinion. Thanks for your ongoing support. I hope you are staying safe and healthy, my friend. Cheers M

Hello Sir!! I do hope that you and your family are well and have found some way of navigating the current madnesgs. It definitely gives you time to reflect, take stock and make you realise what's most important in life. I have and always will be a huge G1 fan and loved the cassettes. I know that this is probably sacralige but often Ravage would be a companion to one of my GI Joe figures as a kid and he looked really cool alongside Snake Eyes as a robotic panther and Timber would be relegated elsewhere!! Love you, your videos and your friendship so all the best til next time!!!

Great review as always M, to me even though the Taiwanese KO's of the Diaclone cassettes are fakes they are still as old as the originals and qualify as vintage transformers toys and the quality on them is comparable to the originals if missing the nessasary copyright information so that said they are still worth seeking out, also any chance you can do a similar style review on Jaguar? As I had KO diaclone Jaguar as a kid but can't recall what the packaging looked like for it?
