This seems to be happening on a bi-monthly basis now, with the 4 Shadow Microns and 4 Red Microns each being incentive bonuses at select Japanese stores.
At the end of this month (Sept 29th), another 4 Microns, at 4 different JP stores/chains, will be released.
The gimmick this time isn't 4 different moulds in one colour, like previous campaigns... but 4 different colours of the same mould (Ratchet's Micron), which can join together to form a shield.

It's called the Rainbow Shield (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/new-campaign-arms-micron-announced-the-rainbow-shield/25723/), as the four colours are Purple, Red, Yellow, Green.

Red R.A. - spend 3000 yen on Arms Micron at Toys R Us.
Green R.A. - purchase Arms Master Optimus at (Toys ion).
Purple R.A. - spend 3000 yen on Arms Micron at Bic Camera.
Yellow R.A. - spend 3000 yen on Arms Micron at (Yamada, Yodobashi)

The shield gimmick is clever.

I hope these are easier to get than the hell flame microns, I'm still waiting for them to show up on ebay

Very cool combination gimmick, but those fluoro colours almost makes them look like KO's.
