Galoob/Hasbro

There were many imitators of the famous Micro Machines, including a
few efforts by Mattel. But as the old commercials used to say,
If it doesn't say Micro Machines, than it's not the real thing.

Galoob introduced the world to Micro Machines back around 1987.
These original Micro Machines featured a lot of detail for their small size,
most of them were only 1½ inches in length! Galoob continued to
 release more colors and new castings for over a decade.

Sadly, Hasbro bought out Galoob in 1999. After half-hearted attempts to keep the
brand alive through themed sets such as Winner's Circle and GI Joe, and an attempted
revival lacking the quality that made Micro Machines so popular, Hasbro decided
 to just relegate the brand name to "Titanium" series of movie themed toys.
