Robots in Disguise

• Eagle Killer (Spy Changer, 2000)
  • Japanese ID number: C-006
  • Accessories: Gun

A redeco of the Generation 2 Go-Bots Firecracker mold. His black windshield has heat-sensitive paint that reveals an Autobot insignia, in a method similar to the original rubsigns.

This mold was also used to make Go-Bot Sideswipe and Go-Bot Optimus Prime.

• Spychangers DX6 (Giftset, 2000)
  • Japanese ID number: C-011
  • Accessories: Gun

Eaglekiller was also available in a giftset with the other Spychangers.

• Eagle Killer clear version (Spy Changer, 2000)
  • Accessories: Gun

An exclusive redeco of Eagle Killer in transparent yellow and red plastics, this version was only available at Jusco stores in Japan, as a giveaway with purchase (of what, though, is unknown at this time).

• Hot Shot & R.E.V. (Basic, 2002)
  • Accessories: Gun

Available only in a two-pack with Hot Shot, the Hasbro version of R.E.V. replaces the heat-sensitive insignia with a normal Autobot insignia tampograph on the roof of the car. The rear of the car also features an orange paint wash, which really brings out the detail of the vehicle mode sculpt.

• R.E.V. (Spy Changer, 2002)
  • Accessories: Gun

All six original Spy Changers were redecoed in colorless-clear plastics (keeping their normal paint applications, though), and released on individual cards through Kay-Bee Toys chains.

• R.E.V (Tiny Tins, 2002)
  • Accessories: Gun

The normal Hasbro version of R.E.V. was released as part of the first assortment of Tiny Tins Transformers, coming with a carrying tin.

• Super Eagle Killer (Spy Changer, 2003)
  • Accessories: Gun

Long after the Car Robots line ended in Japan, Takara put out individually-boxed redecoes of the Spy Changers. Eagle Killer was made in mostly colourless clear plastic.

In each case of twelve Super Spy changers, two were all-clear-plastic versions (but keeping their paint applications). All six Spy Changers had a clear variant.

• R.E.V. (Spy Changer, 2003)
  • Accessories: Gun

A second round of Kay-Bee-exclusive Spy Changers was released on individual cards.
