    Originally, this was a small set. The gun that came with the Autobot badge had an Autobot symbol on the side instead of a Decepticon symbol. Mine broke as a kid and I never got a replacement, but I still have my "slave badge" :)

    Hee hee. I had the Decepto-Pack. The gun was definitely the best part of it; the mask wasn't exactly comfortable to wear...

    I have been developing some ideas involving these things for a little while now. I'm not to the point of having anything developed to share or anything yet, though. I'm not quite sure how it'll play out yet, but it's fun thinking about them and new ideas surrounding them.

    I've got the Decepto-pack too, bought the one in Joe Moore's featured eBay auctions last year.

    Featured Ebay Auction - G1 Decepto Pack Costume Kit - Transformers News - TFW2005

    Had the intention of wearing it at Auto Assembly last year, but the box would of taken up too much space in my case! However during the opening ceremony, TFW member and AA compere Dinotron called me onto the stage to present me with a mask and shield from the Decepto-pack! After wearing my Megs mask for a fair bit of the previous year's AA (see below), Dino reckoned I'd appreciate it! :D 

    I'm probably putting the Decepto-pack up for sale soon if anyone's interested.

    There are Prime and Megs as you say, there's also definitely Soundwave, Superion, Metroplex, Ultra Magnus, and I think SS, Grimlock, and Snarl.

    Some pics of my Megs costume:

    I had the Metroplex mask as a kid, but I had gotten it second hand at a yard sale or something. I always thought it was cool. :)

    The orange outfit made me think it was a cross between Sari & Starscream.

    While there may have been a Halloween costume that had this gun, it was available as an activity pack with just the gun and an Autobot badge:

    hmm ok. Well Im not sure I was really young. But I do remember havin the gun and it looked like the one Prime held (on the boxart battle scene). I remember some sort of suit. And a dark mask, it may have been Starscream, now that I saw someone mention that. It could be I had different items or whatnot, but yea that mask was so dark lookin an cool.

    That's awesome!

    I had a Metroplex mask, as I previously posted, but I got it long after my gun had broken (though I still have the badge!). That's the only TF mask I had as a kid. It was some kind of "activity set", and I want to say that it came with some kind of paperwork that was like field notes or something, but I can't confirm or deny that. I also had the Soundwave walkie-talkies (not the ones that actually looked like him, but they just had TF markings and such on them), so I may be getting those mixed up with the stamp set I had as well.
