WARNING: Seibertron.com contains nuts! A Mexican Ramjet?
We don't really see that many Mexican Transformers here. Or at least those can be verified as Mexican releases.
Most are the same as US releases, that's true for colors, but materials and molds used are a whole different matter, especially in later releases. In the case of the Decepticon Jets or Seekers as we call them, there's one noteworthy difference. The US versions have nosecones made from a rubbery plastic for safety, but versions outside of the US, including Mexico, have them made from regular hard plastic. So don't throw them around.
*EDIT* And silly me.
When I was going through my sources I completely overlooked this page, detailing the Mexican Ramjet, which has maroon instead of red:
Mexican Ramjet on Super Toy Archive.
A phenomenon unique to IGA is the fact their releases hardly have retools. The season 3 Mini Vehicles excluding Wheelie, and Hoist were nothing more than repaints of their Season 1 parent toys. Hoist did get a new rear end though. Also, IGA released some toys in different colors than they appeared in the show.
In short, it being Mexican just makes it a bit of a curiosity, so it would appeal only to a very specific group of collectors.
