I don't really know about Micronauts, but apparently J.J. Abrams has done such a great job with reviving Star Trek that he is now in talks of doing a movie on Micronauts. I guess they are shape-shifting Japanese toys. Did you have any?Press release:
J.J. Abrams (Star Trek, Lost, Alias) in discussions to produce a feature film based on shape-shifting Japanese toy line Micronauts, which was recently acquired by Hasbro, according to WSJ.
The Micronauts toy line was created by Takara, later acquired by Tomy, and debuted in 1974 in Japan, where the line is known as Microman. Two years later the Mego Corporation introduced Micronauts to the US, and released five series of toys through 1980.
Palisades Toys acquired the right to reproduce the toys in 2002. Additionally, Marvel Comics, Devil's Due and Image Comics published Micronauts comic books, with several paperback books based on the property published by Preiss Visual Publications
