AcroMonsters were released as Acroyer
counterpart to Microman Robotman. Takara released three
AcroMonster during the first wave of Mange Powers series.
AcroMonsters are just as their name imply the evil monster summoned from
dept of hell by King of Acroyers to help DemonAcroyers in their fight
against Microman. As expected AcroMonsters were yet another
mangemo-11 toys (magnet and ball type joints). AcroMonsters
were design to be able to combine with one another in any combination to
form a bigger AcroMonster.
022 Vampiser - bat mode &
robot mode.
AcroMonsters are combination of metal and
organic parts. They appeared as creatures but actually have hidden
"robotic" side. Each AcroMonster can be self transform
from creature mode to several other robot modes. (Takara show
three different types for self-transformation which basically involved
rearranging their magnetic parts). Each AcroMonster then can be
combine with either one of the other two AcroMonster. All three
also can be combine together. The numbers of different
combinations that can be achieve are just staggering.
023 Hellpion - scorpion mode &
robot mode.
The first AcroMonster is a bat-like
creature named Vampiser. He has four missile spears on his two
magnetic wings. The second AcroMonster is a pink scorpion named
Hellpion. The third and largest is a semi-clear green iguana
named Iguanite. AcroMonsters design and look were quite unusual
for Microman toys. At first the toys just seem to be off the wall
with strange colors scheme and bizarre design, however they are actually
very fun toys that feature very clever play mechanism via the magnemo-11
joints system. The only problem with the toys which is also the
same problem with the rest of Magne Powers magnemo-11 toys is that the
magnet that used are too weak to hold the parts together especially when
they combined.
024 Iguanite - iguana mode &
robot mode.
Below is AcroMonster in his
most common form with Vampiser as main body and Hellpion forming the
legs part. He appear in the manga and anime mostly in this form.
