- The Guardian Microns are a Mini-Con team from the Revenge of the Fallen portion of the live-action film continuity family.
The Guardian Microns apparently guard things. Which side of the war they work for is unknown, but "Guardian" seems to imply heroics.
The team is composed of
Toys
Revenge of the Fallen
- Guardian Powered (2009)
- Guardian Sky (2009)
- Guardian Speed (2009)
- The three members of the Guardian Microns are redecos of the Cybertron Recon Mini-Con Team. They were available only as individual promotional items, with the purchase of 2,000 Yen worth of Revenge merchandise at certain stores on or after May 30th, 2009. Guardians Powered and Speed were Bic Camera/Yodobashi Camera exclusives, while Sky was available at ToysЯUs.
- These molds were also used to make the Noble Force Mini-Con Team, as well as the Micron Boosters Plier, Bit and Socket (respectively).
Notes
- The Guardian Microns being in the Revenge universe is not 100% solid. Their instruction sheets do not have any form of Transformers logo on them whatsoever, so there's no "definitive" answer as to where they are, fictionally (not that they have any fiction). But since they were given away as part of a Revenge promotion, it's a safe guess that's the continuity they fall under.
- The team was not named on the promotional web site, and certainly not in their instructions. It wasn't until the publishing of Transformers Generations 2009 Volume 3, which features an extensive and complete-for-the-time gallery of all Mini-Con mold toys, that the team was explicitly named.
