- Chrome (Micron Booster, 2004)
- Booster ID number: 1
- Chrome is a redeco of the "Corona" version of the Mini-Con Sparkplug, transforming into a Cybertronic sports car. He was sold as part of the second Micron Booster assortment (called "Ver.1") in Japan, in individual, blind-packed boxes so you did not know which Mini-Con you got until you opened the box and opaque black plastic bag inside.
- Chrome uses the same mold as Synapse and Thyristor. The original version of the mold is used by Atlas and Rod.
