I know these questions are going to sound strange but I don't own any original G1 boxed figures so I hope some of you out there who do can help me answer these questions...

1. What inserts did Mini-Vehicles & Mini-Cassettes come with in 84'-85'? If any, was it just a tech specs decoder?

2. How much did Optimus Prime, Megatron, Omega Supreme, & Jetfire cost in 85'?

3. What inserts/mail-away flyers did combiner team figures such as Arielbots, Stunticons, etc. come with in 85'? Was it just the tiny ones such as "LOOK INSIDE FOR A TRANSFORMER NOT SOLD IN STORES", or the "EARTHLINGS: S.T.A.R.S...."?

4. How much was Metroplex & Trypticon in 86'?

I'm hoping some people still have price tag stickers or what not left on their original boxes, thanks ahead of time to anyone who can answer any of this!

I'll try and help, but by no means profess to be an expert on the vintage stuff....

To the best of my knowledge, they were carded figures and didn't come with any paperwork.

Try here for original prices.

I have to say you've got me there. There are some catalog scans here, i'm not sure if they would be of any use.
