    • Accessories: Watchband
Deceptor is a functional "5-Function" digital wristwatch (Month, day, hour, minutes, seconds. Hell of a range there, huh?) from Takara’s Kronoform line, revived as Transformers merchandise. He transforms from a robot to a jet with a robotic bird-head as his nosecone, and has a third watch mode for when he is attached to the plastic watch-band. He came in at least three different colors; gray, blue, and chromed gold.

Notes

  • Yes, he's an Autobot. His packaging says so.
  • Speaking of his packaging, it uses the exact same cross-sell on the back as Autoceptor's, showing the entire Kronoform line from 1984... except for Deceptor, amusingly enough.
  • A tan Deceptor is shown as part of the "Watchbot" sub-group in the Japanese Transformers First Series Complete guidebook. However, by all accounts Deceptor was never offered as part of the Japanese Transformers line in any capacity.
