This is a KO of the original Microman "Micro Change Series" Cassette Man aka Soundwave. Made by a taiwanese company shiantai. (this is an old KO)

Wow, they are nearly identical!

If you like it, he's not too expensive to get, plus he has a real nice packaging almost identical to the original too.

do you know when were these made? i have one but it has no dates.

btw it's a very nice add vor any soundwave lover.

hmm not sure. I think late 80s or early 90s

dare i say it.


he looks nicer than the actual soundwave

to me he is as well.

and if the knees say microman instead of cassette on the microchange version, then I got a pretty good haul (no weps tho, just the clip+figure w/o broken door) but its still in shipment so idk if its real or not

he's also made of a darker blue. I removed the battery cover to check again and nothing, only says, SHANTAY TAIWAN.

pro: yay! it's an early run KO
con: crud, I still have to hunt for an authentic Microchange Cassette Man...

I also have a KO similar to the one in the pictures (he's missing his battery clip and shoulder cannon) but since he looks exactly the same as the one in the pictures he has no need to show his face.
