Hang on I do recall a tiny leaflet with a comic strip about the Decoys. Buggered if I can remember what was on the other side.
Also, Decoys not just 'pack-in tat'. Bad Phil! Recall how Japan released them!
Bad Phil! If Enemy did not count them how did he get an updated toy, eh?
There are days when I need to hit the 'Bad Phil' button over and over!

Buggered if I can remember what was on the other side. tfwiki.net/wiki/Start_Your_Own_Decoy_CollectionYou can see the strip and the cover there. IIRC the rest of the leaflet is a list of the characters. EDIT:www.dvandom.com/kitbash/pamph1.GIFwww.dvandom.com/kitbash/pamph2.GIFAlso, Decoys not just 'pack-in tat'. Bad Phil! Recall how Japan released them! yes, as a big box of multiple pieces of tat that you could use as erasers. Bad Phil! If Enemy did not count them how did he get an updated toy, eh? because the wrong colours used on a piece of tie in tape tat were then used on the actual tape mould! There are days when I need to hit the 'Bad Phil' button over and over! -Ralph just because I point out the error of your ways does not make me bad

And are there any other pre G2 toys that don't appear on catalogues? I've seen the Omnibots, Time Warrior and the Powerdasher jet in the 'Reinforcements from Cybertron' catalogue. Not sure if the other two Powerdashers have been in one. Don't think I've seen Reflector in a catalogue either. Or Bumblejumper. Martin

Note the warning in the Powerdasher text that you may not get the one pictured. Martin

Well that's an interesting complication to my plans!
Any other shop released TFs not on catalogues/leaflets/offer sheets?

I guess you wouldn't be interested in the cereal box Strike Planes, either, then...
Or Rabicrater, the Micromaster that came in Japan with the Transformers Zone video?

It's down to either Dirge or Skywarp here, my winners in the individual votes

Seeing all six here together makes me think....
Don't Dirge and Ramjet both need their black bits (hands, feet, leg front and maybe weapons) done in a different colour? Say Orange and Red respectively?

After some careful considerations, and based solely on the toys (as I've been trying to do - except when I haven't) I've had to go for the one that stands out the most. Who is, of course, Skywarp.
