| '''Perceptor''' may come off as a dull know-it-all who does nothing but spout techno-babble, but fact of the matter is that he actually ''is'' smarter than all the other Autobots. As tired as they may be of his personality, however, his comrades still appreciate Perceptor's hard work around the base.<ref>''[[Transformers: Kre-O Character Encyclopedia]]''</ref>

| *'''Perceptor''' (Kreon Micro-Changer, 2013)
| |
| **''Collection'': '''2'''
| |
| **''Bag number'': '''***** 74'''
| |
| **''Accessories'': Stand-brick, large rifle
| |
| | |
| : As part of the second wave of [[blindpacking|blindpacked]] [[Micro-Changer]]s, Perceptor is a Kreon patterned after [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[Perceptor (G1)|Perceptor]]. He can be rebuilt into a microscope.
| |
| | |
| : This Collection was still in circulation at "dollar" stores and drug stores up through 2015. They eventually lost the individual-identifying bag codes, but other changes were hidden inside the bag. The 2015 releases replaced the 2x4 logo stand-brick with a new 3x4 logo plate. The Kreon was also given the slight [[retool]]ing to the arm seen in the 2014 Kreons, making the "cuff" parts more sharp-cornered and better adapted to being used as studs. Some of the add-on pieces may also be slightly off-color, possibly due to a change in factories in mid-production.

| *'''Kreon Class of 1984''' (Kreon figure set, 2014)
| |
| | |
| : This version of Perceptor, voted "Class Brain" by the [[Kreon Class of 1984]], has much more toy-based [[tampograph]]s than his prior version, including a masked face. He uses the Ironhide-style helmet.
| |
| | |
| :He was only available in a pack of 30 Kreons dubbed "Class of 1984" (despite the fact that Perceptor wasn't introduced until 198''5''). This set was made for sale at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2014. Remaining stock will be sold at [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] online.

| * '''Perceptor''' (Kreon Micro-Changer, 2016)
| |
| **''Collection'': '''2'''
| |
| **''Accessories'': Logo plate, large rifle
| |
| | |
| :In 2016, Collection 2 was re-released in a whole new production run for Dollar General stores in the US as part of a large collection of re-released ''Kre-O'' sets. But where most of these releases are nigh-identical to the originals, the re-released Micro-Changer blind-bags use the almost-entirely-retooled 2015 Kreon, with slightly-differently-hued plastics than the originals. (It is possible for some of the add-on pieces to be in the older hues.) Perceptor's [[tampograph]]s got some color changes, replacing the light gray with shiny silver, and changing his light blue toe paint to black.
| |
| | |
| :Sadly, this release has no individual-identification code on the bag, requiring you to use the feel-through-the-bag method or just buy blind and hope.

| | |
| ==Notes==
| |
| * At [[Toy Fair 2013]], Perceptor was shown having more or less [[Hardshell (Kre-O)|Hardshell]]'s alt-mode. Why? Lord knows.
