Thanks to 2005 Boards member MountainSound we have our first in-hand images of the recently revealed Micro Machines Transformers Mystery Pack Playset & Vehicle.
Found at US retail a few days ago out of nowhere, these are plastic boxes which can open to become a mini playset for the mystery die-cast vehicle that comes inside. It’s a nice and detailed playset for its size and they feature ports to connect other Micro Machines playsets. We also know that out of 12 possible vehicles only 6 are Transformers, but based on the playset code and numbers at the bottom of the packaging we can identify which character comes in each box:
- 1A 01 – Adventure Racing Truck
- 1A 02 – Cliffjumper
- 1B 01 – Optimus Prime
- 1B 02 – ROTF Megatron
- 2A 01 – Food Truck
- 2A 02 – 19 BMW M6
- 2B 01 – Nemesis Prime
- 2B 02 – Sideswipe
- 3A 01 – Private Jet
- 3A 02 – Starscream
- 3B 01 – 19 BMW M6 again
- 3B 02 – Bugatti
As you can see, only characters from Transformers 2007 and Revenge Of The Fallen with the inevitable Nemesis Prime redeco as a nice surprise.

There's more…
And Decepticon insignia on each side of the rear side panels. Nice touches.
MM Barricade has the motto "To punish & enslave…" on RHS rear panel.

On closer inspection, MM Barricade does have the silver windows. I guess the gold windows on the packaging artwork is artistic licence? Also, on the car underside has the Decepticon insignia sticker (MM Tracks has Autobot insignia). Why Barricade is depicted driving around autobot Optimus playset & packaged with Bumblebee playset is another question altogether. Ahhh kids.
NemiMonkey
I thought that too but the mold is far too round, has gold windows versus Barricades silver, and is a completely different vehicle to Barricades Mustang. The only thing they have in common is the bumper guard, which is just a thing police cars have if they need to ram something.
galvatran
I thought the police car (that came with Movie Bumblebee playset) is Barricade.
NemiMonkey
It's not anybody, just like the police car it's just one of their other MM's showing off the play features of the trailer.

Come on MM release some more G1 MM to go with Tracks… he’s getting a bit lonely
As I said before I will buy ever G1 MM you make

Who is the MM pickup truck on the packaging photography? Thanks in advance.

I just hope they release multipacks for movies 3-5.

Man I haven't seen another series 2 set since I found 05 back in September. I hope they do a Roadbuster to round out the Wrecker trio, maybe in another wave of blind packs.

Not sure if already mentioned, there is a MicroMachines red Corvette playset, but not Transformers crossover branding. Sighted a few days ago at my local retail store in Australia.

Nice find. We had indeed reported the first Wave 2 packs in September, but these are our first images of the Sentinel Prime pack which we had learned from the back of the packaging.

Found these at a Target in Kalamazoo, MI. Did a search here and couldn’t find a sighting reported. Pics show what’s in the packs. View attachment 29727374 View attachment 29727375

Thank you! This was my big worry with the rig cabs

Just in case anyone else on the boards is collecting the MMs, I found this older set at Ross for 3.99 and the trailer is compatible with the various Optimus PrimesView attachment 29700471 View attachment 29700472

Besides Prime and the Tracks he comes with, what G1 micro machines are you referring to? I have only seen movie bots being blind packed?
HeroicC300
Gonna spitball TLK sets into three (because two is not enough)
Set 1: Junkyard with Hound, BB, Drift, and Daytrader
Set 2: England with Hot Rod, Cogman, Barricade, and Megatron
Set 3: Ghost Town with Onslaught, Dreadbot, Mohawk, and Nitro Zeus

Great video review; well done. Those wheels would at least be 24s, though.

Man the cab looks pretty bad for something that doesnt turn into a robot.
