Packages
Birth of Acroyear Set package.
The back of the package show how a poor Microman mutated into an
Acroyear.
Accessories
Both figures also came
with clear green New Microman type capsules. Takara probably used
the capsule because of big size to accommodate Acroyear figure and
also because the capsule look a little like the crystal prism that
Microman were encased in after the explosion of Micro-Earth
Acroyear Origin came with full set
of A30X accessories done in translucent green color

Takara
released special two-pack set as 20th Century Toy Exclusive. The
set was title "Birth of Acroyear" or "Acroyear
Origin". The set was sold at the Nagoya Toys Show and Osaka
Toys Show put on by 20th Century Toy which featured Takara Microman
Traveling Museum Exhibit. The set was the second in this
"Historical Museum" series. (The first one was "Founders

Acroyear Origin Set depicted
Takara early story of how Acroyears came about. In the early
Microman catalog, Acroyears were depicted as the unfortunate
Microman whose crystal capsules landed in the polluted ocean floor.
PBC and other pollutants caused Microman inside to mutate and became an
Acroyear. While the Acroyears gain super ability and able to
negate the effect of Alpha H-7 i.e. they can grow to gargantuan size,
their minds, however, had became small, twisted, mad and evil
Green A30X with translucent limbs
& green Acro-Wing.
Birth of Acroyear was one of
the nicer reissue variants to come out from Takara. The subject
matter depicted by the set was very interesting to Microman collectors
and the figures were absolutely well done in beautiful color
scheme.
