I see this as being a tad tricky to define Gok... I feel that they shouldn't count because they are like a Targetmaster add on, buuut you can buy them separately and so in that case they should count.

So in my opinion, ones that come with a Transformer Pal woudn't count, but ones bought by themselves count. Double standards anyone? But then I did manage to pick up Bulkhead's buddy as well. Should he count? Aaargh! So keeping that in mind, I would have to say they count, just to keep things as standard.
