Transformers Milk Caramel
Transformers Caramel, originally known as Transformers Milk Caramel, was one of the earliest Transformers candy toy lines produced by Kabaya, if not the earliest. Running from 1985 to 1988, the figures offered in this series were small, solid-color rubber models, similar to the later-produced Decoys. As the name of the series suggests, they came with a piece of chocolate-covered caramel.

Figures in the first year of the Caramel line were smaller and flatter than their bigger cousins, the Decoys, featuring less sculpted detail, with some characters (particularly the Mini Vehicles) being based more on their toys than on their character models. The figures were available in numerous different colours, including red, blue, yellow, green and orange.

Not much known about this year's figures.
The Headmasters
This year's Caramel figures each had a base moulded onto their feet that was actually a rubber stamp sculpted in the image of the character's face, with their name below it. All the figures from this year seem to have been blue.
We think this listing is probably incomplete; we'd be very surprised if none of the other Headmasters had figures.

The final collection of Caramel figures took things in a different direction. Each Caramel box now contained two figures, smaller than previous figures (now standing about half the height of a regular Decoy) and still attached to their rubber sprue, depicting the character in question in both robot and alternate mode (for the six-changing Sixknight, his drill tank mode was used). The exception to this was King Poseidon, whose limbs and torso were available in two separate sets (at three pieces to a set), and had to be combined to complete the figure. This year's figures were available in red, yellow and blue, so you ran the risk of a multi-colored King Poseidon!
