Here I will try to show every thing you could order from JC Pennys in each X-Mas book I find! Right now you will
see the selections from 1983, 1984, 1985, and 1988. Enjoy!!
Below may be the first TF item ever sold through JCP, Diakron Multiforce 14. This toy would be sold over the next few years.

1984 was the start of TF's catching on with several off the wall items. #8 is the only place I have ever seen this example.
