    I think they've made the 8 but they are "Randomly packed" into boxes of 3

    Ugh, that's disappointing, I guess it was out of their hands though. :/ I didn't want to risk not getting Jazz from my HLJ order, so I've gone and ordered the set of eight from yahoo japan.

    Also, I just found out that chrome translates Mirage/Ligier's name to... Rejection. haha, poor guy.

    One set left.

    They are smaller then the original decoys.

    To those of you with the original decoys, how have they held up over time in general and display-wise?

    I'm wondering if these have a limited shelf life or not.

    Surprisingly well (for me at least).
    I'd probably even say better than the actual toys, as I haven't seen any colour changes, cracking or brittleness on my original Decoys.

    Are the new ones the same material? I didn't think the original decoys worked as erasers. I certainly haven't tried with any of mine at least. I have a few of the Autobots at the moment and they don't look to have deteriorated at all. Just don't let them get dirty, or put in an environment/storage where they could get marks on them. Stuff like pen marks might be impossible to remove from that kind of rubber.

    I have a G1 TF eraser that seems to have survived quite well loose, if that helps. The material feels more dense than the soft rubber of the decoys though.

    Considering the rubber accessories on Actionmaster Rumbler went brittle and crumbled to dust some years ago, I'm surprised that the original Decoys didn't turn into little rocks by now.
