    I think that Supreme is actually for BM.

    I am not an expert but here it goes:

    G1- Never had formal classification of toy sizes I think but had the following:
    ---
    Micromasters
    Mini-bots
    General figures (Prime, Soundwave, Megatron, Blaster, Jazz, etc)
    Bases

    G2- don't know
    ---
    BW
    ----
    Basic
    Deluxe
    Mega
    Ultra

    BM:
    ---
    Basic
    Deluxe
    Mega
    Ultra
    Supreme

    Just quickly off the top of my head

    As Kup said G1 and G2 didn't really have sizes, although you can fudge most of them into the later size classifications. Pretenders were the first to use terms like Ultra and Mega to define different sizes.

    BW
    Basic
    Deluxe
    Mega
    Ultra
    Super

    BM
    Deployers
    Basics
    Deluxe
    Mega
    Ultra
    Supreme


    Machine Wars
    Basic
    Mega
    Ultra

    RID
    Spychanger 2 packs / Small Combiners
    Deluxe / Deluxe 2 packs
    Mega / Mega 3 pack
    Ultra
    Super
    Supreme

    Energon
    Scouts replaced Minicons (although there were still some three pack Minicons)
    I forget the names of the large Energon series toys

    I think Paul means Scouts replaced Basics.

    These are actually price points, rather than size points. And yeah, it didn't exist in G1/G2.

    I would LOVE for someone to add Recommend Retail Pricing to any of those (for my own database needs).

    Thanks!

    No, I meant Energon Scouts replaced Armada Minicons which replaced the earlier Basics

    As Goktimus says the size points equals price points and nearly every different G1/G2 subgroup had different prices. So in my spreadsheet I list the G1/G2 subgroup in the same category that I list Basic/Deluxe/Mega for the newer toys

    Thus:

    G1 - 1984
    Mini-cars
    Mini-cassettes
    Autobot Cars
    Decepticons Jets
    Decepticon Communicator
    Autobot Commander
    Decepticon Commander

    G1 - 1985
    Mini-bots
    Mini-cassettes
    Autobot Cars
    Autobot Commander
    Autobot Scientist
    Autobot Communicator
    Dinobots
    Deluxe Autobots
    Jumpstarters
    Autobot Air Guardian
    Whatever Omega was called
    Decepticon Jets
    Constructicons
    Insecticons
    Deluxe Insecticons
    Decepticon Military Commander
    Triple Changers
    Decepticon Communicator
    Decepticon Commander

    and so on and so on
