Microman21 M165 Stealth

M164 Stealth is very interesting since not only he has a smoke clear color body but he also sports a dark chrome wings, had and dark chrome chest piece instead of the usual gold color commonly found on Command 2 figures.

 

Romando M161 Sheriff  and Romando M162 Sander

Romando did a very good job of reproducing the figures and the capsules.  The mold were probably came from one of the few surviving molds. When comparing these reproduction to the original Takara release one have to really look to find the minor differences such as the darker chrome head on the original, lack of Takara stamp on the butt and an almost translucent "glow-in-the dark" piece in the torso.   There are also very slight different in color and plastic.

M161 Sheriff - well acquainted with the lay of the land.   Superb geographical knowledge.  He have special ability ray that can form rock.

M162 Sander -  knowledgeable about the underground geology.   Also have superb knowledge about earth historical ruins.

M166 Stealth - structural demolition expert.  He actually working with Intelligent area of CRIM.  He was given the SpyMagician bracelet and wand but he seldom wore them.  He used his stealth and spy skill to infiltrate the Acroyears' base.  He often acts independently from the Command.   His partner is MC7 Black MicroKnight during many of his covert operations.  He is credited with the destruction of several Acroyears' front-line bases.
