I only count the Microman Transformers.

Hang on, I need to see a pic of these microman humans before I decide...

I put none, for some reason (i have no clue) I don't think i'd count them. I always considered the PVC bumblebee w/spike as 1 figure, if i had diaclones w/figures i'd only count the Diaclone, not the driver.

I think the Micromen such as Kicker (if there are more I don't know about them) should count, but the BT drivers are just accessories I think and don't really count as co-sells in the way some of the bots debated could be.

Nope! :thumb

IMO only Microman humans marketed as part of the Transformers action figure line should count.

 

There are only three such Microman figures (although one is technically not Microman):

 

(1) Super Link Kicker

(2) Energon Kicker

This toy is technically not Microman (there are significant mould differences, including less articulation), but for the purposes of this poll we'll include him as a TF Microman.

 

(3) Gamedes

Came with Magnificus - e-Hobby exclusives.

 

I think that these Microman figures should count because:

1. They are marketed as being part of the Transformers action figure line.

2. No, they are not Cybertronians, but neither are Nebulans or Quintessons - yet it seems most fans are willing to count Nebulans and haven't heard any objections to counting Alpha Quintesson.

So is G1 Prime's gun.

I count Neb's that transform. I don't count Alpha-Q.

So is G1 Prime's gun.

No, his gun was never marketed as an actual autonomous and meaningful toy within the Transformers action figure line. The Nebulans were also never marketed as such either (except for the Japanese Headmaster figures). The Transformer Microman figures on the other are marketed as actual meaningful action figures within the Transformers line up, just as the Beastformers and Alpha Quintesson were as well. They were all major characters in the shows too. Also, the TF Microman figures interact with other Transformers in terms of playability. Takara's Kicker comes with his own Energon Sabre with Mini-Con ports so it can powerlink with larger Transformers, Hasbro's Kicker comes with High-Wire and can ride him in motorcycle mode and Gamedes pilots Magnificus in his tank mode (as picture above). Also, they are clearly allied with Transformers factions - Kicker is an Autobot and Gamedes is a Decepticon. "Autobot" and "Decepticon" are political factions to which these humans are members of.

 

So... if we cannot count the TF Microman figures, then we shouldn't count Alpha Quintesson and the Beastformers either. (well, that saves me from having to ask about it in another poll)
