| | |
| In the frenzied days of ''[[Generation 1]]'''s early success, Hasbro found that they could promote [[Generation 1 (toyline)|the toyline]] and sell toys even when kids were at home, via '''pack-in flyers'''.
| |
| | |
| The first five years of ''Generation 1'' included numerous such flyers, in a variety of sizes, though advertising a fairly limited number of toys. Early fliers advertised the [[Powerdasher]]s, [[Time Warrior]], and [[Omnibot]]s. Later brochures added [[Reflector]], membership in the [[S.T.A.R.S.]] fan club, videotapes of various G1 cartoon episodes, and toys from the first two years of the toy line which were no longer available in stores.
| |
| | |
| In more recent years, pack-in flyers have been replaced with CD-ROMs, which contain cartoon episodes and various interactive features.
