“Changeable Robots” at Bonanza Discount Center in 1986
The Butte, Montana, Montana Standard newspaper issue from September 30, 1986, brings us this ad block for “changeable robots” and leaves me completely confused; that’s Huffer and Gears from Hasbro’s Transformers line, right? And priced at $1.49/each at a time when the Transformers toyline was still performing well at retail? So: Exactly which cheap transforming robot toys were really on sale because I cannot see how the illustrations are in any way related to the toys the store was selling at this price.
