2004-2009, 2011 Titanium Series
The Titanium Series Die-Cast line added the "Micro Machines" logo presumably to keep the brand alive. Many many examples are out there, but due to limited interest, just examples from each year (2007, 2008, 2009, and 2011) are shown. Oddly, these carried the Galoob logo as well.

2010 Speed Stars Collections
Even more of a stretch for the Micro Machines brand, these Star Wars toys added the Micro Machines and Galoob logo for 2010 when the Titanium Series skipped a year. Two different examples are shown here.

2014 QT-01E Optimus Prime
This Transformers Expo special release from Japan is dated 2014. A stretch for Micro Machines, but this was released by Takara TOMY which is a partner with Hasbro for Transformers. In 1997, Takara partnered with Galoob on the single-vehicle packs, so a mini Optimus Prime from a Hasbro partner; close enough if you need to fill in the year with something Micro Machines related.

2015-2016 Star Wars Collections
The Micro Machines brand was brought back officially in 2015 using the Star Wars line related to the new movie releases. Many different collections were released, and since Star Wars is not a personal collection focus, the below collections are meant as examples and not comprehensive.

2016-2017 Star Wars Collections
Micro Machines continued with offerings in 2016 and spilling over into 2017 with the late December 2016 release of Rogue One. However, this was the last use of the brand as collectors await the Hasbro/WCT release planned for Fall 2020. The collections below are examples of this later release.
