Produced by Galoob Toys in 1987 and currently owned by Hasbro, Micro Machines is a line of miniature scale vehicles and play sets. As well as producing their own vehicles Galoob held licenses for well-known TV and film franchises such as Star Trek, Star Wars, James Bond, Power Rangers and MIB, as well as producing a series of Rockin’ Wheels sets that featured the touring vehicles of famous bands such as AC/DC, Deep Purple and others.
TVTA is pleased to present selected new scans from an interesting Micro Machines catalogue I recently acquired: a 1990/91 unstamped dealer catalogue. It’s licensed to Ideal Toys from Lewis Galoob Toys, and was aimed at the French-speaking market. (This is my earliest so far catalogue for Micro Machines; the others can be seen in my post here)

…. and it sure is micro! The smallest toy I ever had, and loved was my Troll Doll. I made lots and lots of outfits for it.
Hey! A toy company in Toronto (Spin Master) just bought the rights to Rubik’s Cube for $65 million Canadian $$$$. Crazy!

Cool! I remember the troll dolls. As for Rubik’s Cube – what a sensation that was, and all its derivatives. Not surprised it just sold for top $$$s then. Could never solve it myself, and was pleased if I managed to get just one side done 😂

Lol! I never even got 1 side done. As the reporter said ” this maddening multi-coloured cube”.

Hi there, I wouldn’t have doubted that for a moment! The” Starships” packs are cool but they do tend to lead to you getting duplicates of certain ships when you buy a double pack then have to buy another to get a ship you are missing. Sneaky Sith styled marketing if you ask me. At least the car and earthbound vehicle packs didn’t “Force” you to buy duplicates as often.

Hi TVTA, I kinda like the vehicles with an interior – that is some serious detailing. I’ve got about half a dozen or so of the Star Wars starship packs but none of these classic packs.

There was a lot of imagination at play when designing these. Brilliant to find this catalogue among a Matchbox, Corgi and Bburago lot I picked up 🙂
