Takara release follow up series to Microlady in September of 2006 as Microlady 2. The second series of all female Microman follow the same format as the first by splitting the series into two sides, Microman side and Acroyear side. Microman side consist of two new characters ML2-01 Marl and ML2-02 Eriss and Acroyear side consist of two new Acroyears AL-51 AcroGarula and AL-52 AcroSpira. This is the only second core Microman series to be released by Takara for 2006 which have seen a big slow down compare to the previous years. 

 

      

 

MICROLADY FULL ACTION BODY VERSION 2

Microlady 2 series also for the first used the new Microlady Full Action Body Version 2 (Anime Body) for the core line. (The body has been used for Micro Action Series). The new body look great for Microlady and Acrolady figure and give the figure a much more feminine looks. The new body is slightly slender than the old Microlady Full Action Body and has the anime style and feel. Ver. 2 body come with even more interchangeable hands including several new un-articulated style hands which not only looks better on the figure, they also provide a much more steady hands for holding weapons and accessories. However, if you prefer the old articulated hands Takara also include them with the new body for total of 10 style hands.

 

MRZ1200 Needle Cumber

Mind Capture Mode

Medical Mover Mode

MICRO NURSES!

MicroLady Eriss is clear green figure with white painted shoulder arms and legs. The body utilize the new Microlady Ver. 2 Body. Eriss come with very minimal armors with only shoulder and ankle armor pieces. The main accessory for her is her weapon the MRZ1200 Needle Cumber (yes you read it correctly) that also double as vehicle. Needle Cumber is a metallic green syringe (hence the name Needle Cucumber) that can be unfolded and transform into weapon or vehicle for the Microlady. It is interesting that Takara start to make Microman weapon that resemble object in human world. The green cucumber 1200 has three separate modes, the first one is Mind Capture mode, this mode is used for capturing Psycho Acroyears that are hiding inside human mind. The second mode is MW Mode or Medical Weapon Mode. In this mode the Needle Cumber is hold up against the body as a giant bazooka, the design is a homage to the old Microman Hand Bazooka M22X from 1970's series (Micronauts Galactic Warrior). The third mode is vehicle mode dubbed Medical Mover. The clear parts unfold and turn into propellers and the figure can ride on Needle Cumber as hover bike. 

Medical Weapon Mode

MICRO VEHICLE

MicroLady Eriss is a very nice figure and the accessory despite the corny name is actually very cool. The figure has nice articulations with all the armors fit well to the body. I always prefer Microman figure that is not busy looking and this figure and her companion Marl certainly fit the minimalist design. It is nice to see Takara try to sneak in a weapon accessory that can be double as vehicle for the figure since there seems to be a big lack of vehicle for the modern series.

The figure comes with two set of clear green hands.

Eriss only comes with 4 pieces of armors since the bulk of her accessory is in her weapon.
