Deceptor

Deceptor is an Autobot from the Generation 1 continuity family.

"Psst, kid. Sure, I look angry and turn into a condor/jet thing and am named 'Deceptor', but I'm totally an Autobot. Go ahead and wear me. You'll forget I'm even there."

Deceptor is one of several Transformers who turn into wristwatches. It is unknown if he retains his small size when in his non-watch modes. He has been described as a "time machine", but his specific abilities are unknown.

Toys

Generation 1

Boy, time sure flies! Ha ha ha ha ha ha haooooo God please kill me.

• Deceptor (Kronoform, 1985)
  • 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.

• Deceptor uses the exact same cross-sell on the back of his packaging as Autoceptor, showing the entire Kronoform line—from 1984. As such, he's not on there.

• 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.
