The Micron Booster sets are Japanese-exclusive Mini-Cons, sold in individual, blind-packed boxes. The plastic bags inside the box were opaque black as well. As such, buyers did not know what Mini-Con was inside the box until they opened them.
Micron Booster Ver.0
The first assortment of Micron Boosters was sold as part of the Micron Legend (the Japanese name for Armada) series. The versions of the Air Defense Team and the Race Team in this assortment are cast in a slightly-sparkly plastic with slightly-sparkly paint.
Micron Booster Ver.1
???
Beacon, Lens and Quantum can combine to form the Blizzard Saber (UT).
Micron Booster Ver.2
The third Micron Booster set introduced the "chase" oy to the mix; only half of the cases had the "headliner" Mini-Con Saber in it. As such, a full set of twelve Mini-Cons went for considerably more on the secondary market than an incomplete set of 11 without Saber in it.
Brake, Damper and Filter can combine to form Frenzy.
Micron Booster Ver.3
The series continued with a single set in the Galaxy Force (Japanese Cybertron) series. Unlike previous assortments, buying a case of twelve did not guarentee you all eleven of the "common" Mini-Cons. Though it has yet to be confirmed, this is most likely due to the four "partner" Mini-Cons in the assrotment who were made in larger numbers than the others, due to being gang-molded with their larger partners, who were part of the normal retail "Galaxy Force" line. As such, each case often had multiples of a couple of the "parnters", missing some of the others, on top of the chaser piece.
