Like the Japanese version of Kicker, this set celebrates the shared history of Takara's Transformers and Microman lines, pairing a Microman toy that homages various Japanese '70s/'80s sci-fi style shows (though it does also come across as kinda Cobra-y) with a reproduction of a Transformer in its original Microchange coloration.By the time the Microchange theme was introduced in 1983, the Microman story was told exclusively through text and manga pages in the toys' pack-in catalogues, with no tie-in fiction.

Subatomic inner space is a reference to the Microspace realm of the Marvel Comics Micronauts series, another little nod to obscure American fiction by bio-writer Hirofumi Ichikawa.

Ga'mede's story was based on the Greek myth of Ganymede, who was swept away by Zeus.

He also comes with a Microman stand to help him stay upright, though only one of the footpegs on it is sized to this style of Microman figure.

He comes with an unchromed-black set of the weapons and wearable accessories from the Microman 2003 series MF1-01 Commander Microman: a machinegun that can attach to his bandolier's back (albeit a bit loosely), a pistol with leg-holster, and a machete that clips into a wrist-gauntlet. Since he's roughly the same size as the 1980s Microman figures, he can pilot Magnificus's tank mode just as the original figures could. Unlike regular modern Microman figures, his head is painted rather than chrome silver. He is a super-posable 3 3/4-inch action figure, and has six pairs of interchangeable hands for different poses and weapons (two clenched fists, two splayed palms, two flat palms, and three different pairs of gripping hands), and includes a mini "rack" to store the ten hands not plugged into the figure's wrists. Accessories: 2-piece "Photon Armor" bandolier, holster, gauntlet, "Magno Gun" pistol, "Photon Wave Rifle", "High Frequency Machete", six pairs of hands, hand-rack, Microman standĪvailable only with the e-HOBBY exclusive Magnificus, Collector's Edition Ga'mede is a redeco of the Microman 2004 series Microman "Walter".Selects bioĪt some point, Magnificus travelled to the Legacy World in search for Ga'mede.

Upon completion, Ga'mede put the majority of the droids under the command of Flip Sides, though at least one was known to be controlled by Daniel Witwicky. Built in the likeness of Optimus Prime, these drones were intended to have a psychological advantage over their Decepticon enemies as well as a physical one. Teaming up with Wheeljack, Ga'mede helped to develop the new Autobot warrior drones, the Eldedroids.

Ga'mede suggested that Magnificus use his psychometric scan on the kit to find out more about their mysterious benefactor. The battle was interrupted by a newcomer named " Hawk", who offered Magnificus a place in a new Decepticon splinter force, leaving a repair kit behind as an incentive. Throughout the battle, Ga'mede advised Magnificus. Ga'mede and Magnificus were hiding out in the remote Iron Town when they were attacked by Oilmaster, out to get a bounty on Magnificus's head.
