Welcome to the Micropedia Galactica, the new thread for my Micro Heroes creations.

The long term goal here is to complete full team sets and detailed character visual histories for every character from the Legion franchise. The short term goal is to stay creative and have fun! There won't be a consistent update schedule - new posts will arrive as I complete sets. If the forum is willing, I'd also like to branch into other DC Comics and even Marvel properties and post those offerings. The previous generation of designs can still be found at the Future's Legion Micros thread. You know, if you like nostalgia or exaggerated proportions.

Usual Disclaimers Apply!
I don't own the Legion or any other properties which will eventually be represented in this thread. The templates I build off of were heavily modified by myself from Bruce Timm inspired designs by others. The hairs on the Micro Heroes are largely modifications from other peoples' micro designs.

Yay! First on the thread to say how lovely these are and to say thanks for continuing with the micros Future. The attention to detail is just stunning.

That's another round of micros for the history books. Thanks to Thoth for the kind words! One advantage of redoing these looks is being able to add more detail the old, smaller templates may have muddled.

I thought about holding back the "Fashions by Fans" for when I approach the Elseworlds, but in truth enough of those looks made it into the book or at least inspired something. So I went ahead and included it. I didn't originally intend to do so many team shots for the "V2" era, but I kept finding enough costume variations to justify. Giffen changed enough of his own creations between the Great Darkness Saga and his following issues that I felt GDS merited its own unique team shot. He does something similar when he returns at the close of the Baxter series, introducing new costumes and then redesigning them a few issues later.

Hope everyone likes! Haven't even started on the Magic Wars looks yet. I love those costumes but they're unique enough that I can't get by with a lot of copy and pasting. Sad face.

The person next to me on the train caught my exclamation on all these additions and has been peeking over. Not just Micros my inquisitive train buddy, Future's Micros :-)

You've already got more than enough on, that I get to enjoy scrolling up and down, noting all the little costume and hair changes.

Jeckie has had some really distinctive changes and it's great to see that black costume included.

Like Lyle's shorts Micro, I don't remember Jacques white costum, so that's another one to watch out for. I'm really looking forwrd to seeing his Magic Wars outfit, which was my favourite one of his.

Great job onthe fans fashions too. While I'm very glad not to have seen more of them in the book, Imra's jacket makes alot of sense. More than a space bikini anyway :-)

I can see them now. I believe Photobucket was having a major meltdown last night, judging from Twitter...

Glad it was just a fluke! You didn't miss any Postboot micros yet, so all is well. wink

Thanks, Gary and Andy! Hopefully these file sizes aren't big enough to muck with the loading time or board rules.

Glad people are enjoying these. If the team format isn't everyone's cup of tea, don't worry. I'll get back to individual characters one day.
