- Mixing is an Autobot Micromaster from the Operation Combination portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
The Build Team's Mixing is... a little disturbed. He shares Road Police's hobby of gun-collecting, only moreso. He knows all manner of guns inside and out, both Cybertronian and of alien construction, and spends his free time modifying human firearms so he can use them. However...at his core, he's a pacifist, with an odd ideal theory that if he could simply obtain all guns ever, there would be no war. (He is apparently blissfully unaware of Humanity's wonderful history of atrocities committed before gunpowder was invented.)
He also has an evil counterpart running around.
Fiction
Micromaster Collection
Mixing was one of several Seiberdroids in stasis at the Autobot Micromasters' Earth base. During a particularly pitched battle with the Decepticon Sixwing in Berserker Mode, the capsules containing the Build Team took a shock, activating them. A little while later, Micromasters resembling the Build Team were spotted wrecking human construction sites. Sireen noted from the reports of the attacks that the clone of Mixing called himself Mixmaster. The Build Team soon confronted them in Sixbuilder mode...only for the impostors to do the same! The green Decepticon Sixbuilder announced that the two teams were actually halves of the original whole, and that he would rejoin with Sixbuilder only after all the other Autobots had been destroyed. Sixbuilder – Warrior of Misfortune!?
Operation Combination
Years later, Mixing and the rest of the Six-team Micromasters joined Guard City and the Road Corps in defending Earth from the forces of the Decepticon Führer Scrash. Operation Combination
Toys

Aside from the cement mixer truck mode, Mixing can form a leg to any of the similar-build Six-Teams (Sixturbo, Sixbuilder or Sixwing), though his nominal placement is as Sixbuilder's left leg. The original Six-Teams are considered among the more difficult Japanese Generation 1 pieces to find.
- The toy's larger connector socket is approximately 5mm wide, making Mixing compatible with Powerlinx ports.
- This mold was also used to make Universe Micromaster Quickmix, and the evil half of Mixing.
Micromaster Collection
- Mixing (Micromaster, 2003)
- Sixbuilder ID number: 6
- Accessories: Sixbuilder left foot
- In 2003, the entire Sixbuilder team was re-released as part of the "Micromaster Collection", in individual boxes with a number visible to show which mold was inside each box. For this release, the team was extensively redecoed; Mixing went from light green to a deep aqua-green. All decals were also replaced with paint applications.
