| This article is about the Generation 1 subline and the characters contained therein. For the Dreamwave miniseries, see Micromasters. |
Micromasters are Transformers who downsized their bodies considerably to be more fuel efficient. Transforming into tiny cars, planes, and other vehicles, many team up in four-member patrols, while others command vehicles or battlestations which can transform into other things.
Some Micromasters are also Combiners, and can each form either the front or back half of a combined vehicle. They are not constrained to joining only with their Combiner partner; they also can join with any other Combiner, as well as to the back of any Micro Trailer (see also Combi-Micromaster).
Micromasters are usually grouped as Patrols, Squads, Transports, Stations or Bases:

Trivia
- An early name for the original Micromasters line was simply "Micro Transformers", having been featured on the packaging of the early 1989 Micromaster Patrols. The name was quickly dropped in favor of the now more common "Micromasters", possibly due to its similarity to Galoob's "Micro Machines".
- Interestingly, Hasbro's early logo was used for the entirety of Italian company GiG's release of the Micromasters figures.
