A Minibot

Mini-spies are very small Transformers, used by either faction as, well, spies. They are especially suited to this because their faction symbols are not visible without vigorous rubbing.

Fiction[]

The Transformers cartoon continuity[]

A Mini-Spy once blithely drove into Autobot Headquarters, and began messing around with Teletraan-1. Huffer and Cliffjumper rubbed the little robot's rub sign, revealing that he was a Decepticon. The spy fled, with the two Autobots in pursuit. [1]

Toys[]

Mini-spy toys

Blue mini-bots

  • Mini-Spy (1985)
Mini-Spy toys came packaged with Mini Vehicles in early 1985. Mini-Spies were the first toys to feature rubsigns, and the only way to determine whether a given Mini-spy toy was an Autobot or Decepticon was by rubbing the rubsign.
There were four different Mini-spy molds, known by the unofficial names 4WD Type, Buggy Type, FX-1 Type, and Porsche Type, and each was available in blue, white and yellow variations, for a total of 12 different toys.
The pre-Transformer versions of the Mini-spies were part of a toyline called Mecha Warriors, and came in blue and red variations. [1]

Notes[]

  • The FX-1 type is commonly called Mazda Type by fans (as seen in the picture above), in spite of being based on an old Toyota concept car, right down to the FX-1 marking on the front of the car. This is due in equal parts to the fact that the FX-1 is an incredibly obscure car, and that the FX-1 marking is so small, it's very easy to misinterpret it as saying "RX-7" instead.
