Micronauts Commercial "Youngminds": Presented by AcroRay's Laboratory

Mego invested substantial advertising dollars into the Micronauts, and had well over a dozen television commercials produced for the line by DuRona Productions, one of the most active television commercial production companies associated with the toy industry.

This is one of my favorites, and I am fortunate enough to own the spot as one of the original 16mm films use by television stations to air it. The staff of Nice Shoes LLC - a world-class post production studio in NYC - was kind enough to transfer this and a number of other Micronaut commercials in my collection from film to video tape for me, using some of the industry's best technology. Several of their colorists and transfer technicians remembered Micronauts, and enjoyed the opportunity. Special Thanks are owed to Nice Shoes staff member and Micropolis Embassy community member John DiMaggio for making that possible.

(Please note that several years ago I provided lower-resolution video files and VHS copies of this transfer to members of the collecting community, which have found their way to YouTube previously and also onto DVD commercial collection that have been offered for sale by individuals not associated with myself.)
