This is the complete set that I had as boy. My mother recently found them and asked if I wanted them. This is the complete set, it came boxed if I remember rightly but unfortunately I wasn't a collector in 1984 so the box is long gone. I think they are very very cool.

I have those from my childhood and they were a cool set. A substitute too for three characters I didn't have a toy of. I recently gave TinyJazz one of them, no prizes for guessing which.

Simple versions of their vehicle mode.

The complete set is awesome. I only have the first two (Op and SS) and have yet to track the remainder down. Ink long since dried out, but I bet if I got a new ink pad it'd still work.....

These ones are currently for sale on eBay... no idea what they're worth but I figure I may be able to buy a G1 reissue Transformer with the funds... how big and who... well that all depends.

I only got the Autobots, but I still have all mine. :) Unfortunately I've lost the cover for my Jazz stamp. Btw, Jazz and Wheeljack originally had red ink and Optimus had blue. The ink in those things last for a surprisingly long time -- despite getting mine in the mid 80s, my Optimus Prime and Wheeljack's stamp covers only ran out of ink just a few years ago! :eek: I still use these stamps regularly. :D

I had Wheeljack and Optimus, but only Wheeljack survived.

Optimus got taken off me by my Dad cause I stamped him in a place that I shouldn't have (the wall) and he chopped the bottom off of Wheeljack so I couldn't do the same.

A friend of mine gave me a loose complete set of these last year.
