Hard as it is to believe, it's been almost 50 years si8nce the original Micronauts toy line hit store shelves. The franchise has been dormant for quite some time, but that's about to change as Hasbro and Super7 join forces for a new series of Micronauts action figures.Check out the slideshow gallery below for an exclusive first look at the first two figures in Super7's Micronauts line, Biotron and Baron Karza: Super7's Micronauts Figures - Image GalleryThe Micronauts figures are part of Super7's Reaction+ line, featuring the same 3 3/4-inch scale and retro-style packaging the line is known for. The figures aim to be as close to the original 1976 versions as possible in terms of articulation, with 12 points of articulation and an O-Ring construction. The return of Micronauts really represents what Hasbro and our licensing business are all about bringing unique interactive fun and collectible experiences for fans across multiple generations, Marianne James, Senior Vice President, Global Licensing at Hasbro, tells IGN. The team at Super7 have done an incredible job reintroducing the line for a new generation while capturing what made the original 1970s lineup so special. We look forward to exploring even more licensing opportunities with world-class partners like Super7 to give fans unique offerings from the brand like never before.Super7 co-founder and CEO Brian Flynn says, "As kids, Micronauts were undeniably some of the coolest action figures ever made. Their clear bodies and interchangeable pieces were like nothing else, and their fantastical designs were out of this world (in space!) and ignited imaginations everywhere. From the colossal Biotron and the magnetic Baron Karza to the dynamic Microtron and the translucent Time Travellers, Micronauts had it all - from aliens to robots to heroes! Being able to revisit the fantastical world of Micronauts with the same childhood excitement is nothing short of a dream come true for all of us here at Super7."PlayBoth Baron Karza and Biotron will be released later in 2025, with more Micronauts figures hopefully to follow.In other Micronauts news, animator Eric Rogers revealed that he oversaw a 52-episode Micronauts animated series that was completed in 2020 but never released. While Rogers himself fears the series has been written off for tax purposes, similar to Warner Bros.' Batgirl movie, IGN sources indicate the series could still see the light of day alongside a live-action Micronauts movie and series. Jesse is a mild-mannered staff writer for IGN.
