Development
Lobros was released as a toy by Mego in 1979. He was also released by Gig.
According to Bryan Wilkinson on Facebook, when Palisades Toys was first planning on Micronauts toys to release they had hoped to release Lobros in black, orange, red and clear yellow. This toy was never released by Palisades Toys.
In late 2004 Micronauts was licensed to SOTA Toys to make Micronauts. They planned to produce a line of stylized 6 inch figures under the name Micronauts Evolution, including a Lobros. A hand painted prototype of Lobros was displayed at Toy Fair New York City 2005, but because of legal issues with Takara the toys were delayed and never released.[2]
In 2018 Mathew Robert Ignash released parts for Lobros on Shapeways.
