Micronauts

Micronauts was the North American name for the original Microman toy line created by Japanese toy company Takara (now part of TOMY) and first released in Japan in 1974 and continues to this day. This line was imported by the Mego Corporation and given the name "Micronauts." The bulk of the line consisted of small 3.75" action figures that were known for their high poseability compared to similar sized toys. It also included vehicles and robots. The magno series of figures, which used magnetic joints and were modular, were derived from the Steel Jeeg toys available in Japan, also from Takara.

In later years, the Micronauts line included an increasing number of Mego-designed toys and accessories that were never available in Japan.
