I may be wrong, but I couldn't find this toyshop flyer in the archive Baron?

If it is, my bad. If it isn't, then here it is for your viewing pleasure...

Obviously part of the 1984 wave 2.2 line extension along with the micro comic:

I'd not seen that - brilliant!

We have the micro-comic, but not the leaflet: http://www.bloodforthebaron.com/comics/ ... index.html

Is it just a double sided sheet, then?

No worries Baron.

Yes, the flyer was a double-sided sheet that was placed hanging off shelf-talkers like in the pic below.

I can vividly remember picking one up from a toy shop as a child and eagerly going home and sending off for my free Kraken...

There already is one, it was in the comic. It was Skeletron that was missing.

Nice leaflet Paul, that was how I got my Kraken originally.

The Kraken and Buy 3 Get 1 Free leaflets were in my local Zodiac Toys in Salisbury back in the day, never saw them anywhere else though. I used to do the rounds of the town, pick up those in Zodiac and then Toymaster for the Zoids comics :-)
