I'm getting a bit confused by all these single-pack Microns coming out of Japan, so here is an update of what I know so far.
In May and August, we will have two waves of "Capsule" Microns (sounds like they are sold in plastic eggs like kinder surprise). Most of these Microns are mini-versions of Prime characters, with a few beasts thrown in.
And in July/August/Sept, we have about 12 Microns, most of which are redecos of those released with Prime toys. (Go here (http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/menu.aspx?menu=2819&category=8098) and scroll down to see the ones labeled as "A" to "I", and "2")
Of the "Capsule" series...
The wave 1 figures are (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/new-color-images-of-upcoming-takara-transformers-prime-arms-micron-capsule-figures/24875/):
Optimus Prime (Blaster)
Bumblebee (Sword)
Gob (Cobra) Black
Gob (Cobra) Pink
Zad (Lizard) Black
Zad (Lizard) Pink
(I can't quite tell if the cobra and lizard transform into a weapon or a shield)
While the Wave 2 are (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=13525):
Bulkhead (Fist)
Arcee (Sword)
Megatron (Cannon)
Wanigame (Turtle/shield)
For those aiming to collect all of these, just be careful with what you are ordering/pre-ordering, as a dealer/seller could get them mixed up as well.
