The Trivia section states that Bug was considered for the movie but left out because Marvel doesn't own the rights to the character. I wonder if the user who posted this assumes that this is because Bug started as one of the Micronauts. If so, it's incorrect. Characters like Acroyear, Biotron, and Baron Karza are restricted from use by Marvel for those reasons. But Bug, like Commander Rann and Mari are Micronaut characters created by Marvel, and don't originate with the original Micronaut toyline. According to Word of God, they just felt that one more character would be too many characters. BTW, Bug, like Rocket Raccoon, was also created by Bill Mantlo.
