TransReview Note: Sadly we have none of these comics in our possession, so we are presenting you with this summary from Rob's Transformers Page.

Since Takara produces and promotes Transformers in Japan, it's not surprising that they produced their own comics.

In Japan, the DVDs for the Transformers Micron Legend cartoon series (otherwise known as Transformers: Armada) were sold with exclusive recolored Mini-Con toys, along with a four-page comic book. Told in parallel to the main Armada story, these mini-comics provided stories for the new toys, as well as giving some additional background into the Armada mythos.

As part of their Robot Masters line of small-sized Transformers, Takara of Japan included a promotional catalog and pack-in comic with the toys. Additional chapters (most only one or two pages long) of the Robot Masters story were periodically posted on Takara's web site.
