When i was a kid, scouring the G1 brochures was fun, helping me decide which toys i wanted the most, much to my parents chagrin! I'm always pleasantly surprised when a new toy comes with one, even if it's just regurgitating stock photos i've seen before.

Does anyone know of an online archive of brochures through TF history?
Most of the G1 brochures are up in the yearly sections at www.unicron.com, but they're pretty low-res. I was wondering if some longtime fans have originals that could be scanned, and we could build a repository of them all here? Actually, this strikes me as something that could/should be on TFWiki... but isn't as far as i know...?

There is also Botch the Crab (http://www.botchthecrab.com/gallery.asp?gallery=10) which has catalogue scans between '84 and 1990 among other things. They are all pretty high quality as well.

I myself have been looking for scans like these so I would also like to say a great thanks.
The links you guys put up will definately be of help.
