Yeah, that's the one.
Trailbreaker was part of the "Collectors Edition" series of reissues, which were all exclusives.
Others in that series included:
+ Ironhide & Ratchet (e-Hobby exclusive); since reissued in Encore
+ Sideswipe & Red Alert (convention exclusive); later reissued as e-Hobby exclusives. Sideswipe later reissued in TFC and Red Alert in Commemorative Series (CS).
+ Skywarp & Thundercracker (convention exclusive); to be reissued in Encore
+ Dirge (specialist toy store exclusive); since reissued in CS.
+ Ramjet & Thrust (convention exclusive); never been reissued since
+ Inferno & Grapple (convention exclusive); Inferno since reissued in TFC and Grapple in CS (sans chrome on hook)
+ Trailbreaker & Hoist (convention exclusive); Hoist since reissued in CS and Trailbreaker has never been reissued since.
The Collection Edition 2-sets all originally sold for 6000JPY each. Dirge sold for 3200JPY. But yeah... Trailbreaker, Ramjet and Thrust are the only Collection Edition reissues that have never since been reissued again.

You're not alone!Must have just been me then. I didn't even imagine it being a two for one deal. I just expected a twin pack.
OH! YES! PLEASE!!!

Cool, I so want these even though I have my old Thundercracker and a spare I bought for some parts. Looks like the junker is going on ebay...

As I've mentioned before, my G1 Thundercracker is in excellent condition. Out of all my Transformers from 1984 he's actually in the best condition... but it's missing the long missiles (only has the short missiles). But my G1 Skywarp is really quite worn and missile all missiles. So getting Encores for Skywarp and Thundercracker works out for me.Whenever I get reissues I tend to display the original in alt mode and the reissue in robot mode.
My Trailbreaker is missing everything.
