Packaging
& Instruction
Microman
2004 came in beautifully done removable blister card
style packaging. The backing card had very nice picture
of the toy with all the accessories on display in the
blister window. As a nice touch, the blister had the
"O" design (in MICROMAN logo) molded on. While
the cylinder tube 2003 series was nice and compact, the
new blister was definitely more attractive looking.

Microman
MF2-01 Skymaster Hayate was the first member and leader of the Master Force
series. Hayate was the flight expert of the team. (Master Force
theme followed the four method of travel - air, underground, water and
surface). Hayate shared the same new Microman core body with the
other figures in the series (The same body debuted with last year Micro
Force and Tatsunoko Fight! Microman 2003 line). He had dark clear blue body with
black paint highlight which was a very nice combination. His body was mostly
clear dark blue (A lot like blue on the old M103). Hayate had the
typical anime "young hero" head design (reminiscence to that
of the recent Microman Arthur). Hayate had white triangle symbol
on his chest. (I am not sure what it suppose to represent may be a nod
to Microman Command 1?) |
Skymaster Hayate armor was
a flight jacket with positional wings called "Sky Rambler" with
beautiful chrome finished. The flight gear design of course was a
homage to the old vintage Microman Kit Machine toy of the same name
-Microman Zone Kit Machine Sky Rambler. The armor also had clear
windshield, and the front chest armor even had the same hexagon design
as the old Sky Rambler jacket. Beside the flight pack, Hayate also came
with leg wing snap on part similar to Command Microman. This was the
only part that had the tendency to fall off easily while playing with
Skymaster other wise his flight armor was quite secure. Beside the wing,
Hayate also came with arm snap on weapon that appeared to be a homage to
the Magne Power Microman. The snap on weapon can be removed and together
with the leg wings, it formed a mechanical bird called "Micro
Eagle". The bird had its own computer and came completed with IC
chip and navigational system. Beside acting as arm weapon, the bird also
served another purpose, by attaching the bird to the back of the armor
and pull the wing out from the peg, the wings can spin like a propeller.
The wings also had two positions it can form normal wing that resemble
the old Sky Rambler wing or it can split and form "X" shape
propeller wings. The wings also removable and became sky diving board
for Hayate. |
