Notes
- Matsuda also designed a motorcycle robot[1] that got far enough into production to receive three[2][3][4] different deco and sculpt variations (including different heads!). Just which line this unreleased toy was meant for is hard to say, as it would have been outside the scale of Diaclone, and Micro Change had largely moved away from making toys with Microman figure compatibility by the time its patent was applied for.
- He might have also designed the Superion wristwatch, but there is currently no documentation to prove it.
- Matsuda's first name is rendered Takahashi on the American patent for Eject / Rewind, but Takashi on all other English-language patents.
