Yesterday we got all the official images of the upcoing Walmart exclusive G1 reissues. These includes Starscream, Devastator, Hot Rod and several minibots. These same reissues were also shown in their packaging at San Diego Comic Con and Seibertron has images for you. On display were Bumblebee (sporting the remolded cartoon face), Devastator and Starscream. The packaging is as close to the G1 packaging as possible. We can see Bumblebee's instructions on the back.
These are said to be available in the next few days so check this article which includes the links to all the Walmart listings.

Our Seibertron news hounds are live on the San Diego Comic Con floor, sending us hot and fresh images of the latest toy reveals. One of the sections of Hasbro's display at today's breakfast event was of the new line of G1 Reissue toys! This is one of the first times we've seen first hand images of new old toys like Devastator, Starscream, minibots like Swerve, Bumblebee and Tailgate, and their impressive reproduction packaging. If these follow the same trend as Hot Rod, these toys will all be exclusive to Walmart in the US. Check out our images below, and stay tuned for more SDCC coverage!

The gallery barrage from our site owner and certified bossman Seibertron himself continues, as we now turn our attention back to the Generation 1 toy reissues display at the Hasbro breakfast showcase at San Diego Comic Con! Check out our new high quality images of these toys, with a handful of them below for your viewing convenience, and then click on any of them to be taken to the full gallery with dozens more! These are predicted to follow suit of Hot Rod, and be Walmart exclusives, so stay tuned for more news regarding them and all the other new reveals from SDCC!
Update: We also have a video of these figures on the show floor, enjoy!

This could be online only like some of their previous Transformers exclusives.
What's interesting about the Constructicons is that they appear to be using a uniform shade of green instead of the two-tone green of the original and Encore 20 (but not 20A). I think it's a better look for the figures.

I'm really just aiming for the mini cars.

No thanks! G1 was the most awesome thing back in the 80's but that ship has sailed. G1 toys are complete crap now. I look at them & can't believe I thought they were cool when I was a kid.

An odd thing but I both agree and disagree with this. I agree because I think it's further pandering and the prices are not realistic for the toy itself but on the other hand if people want them, then they should feel free to get them, will probably be cheaper then tracking down originals. G1 toys were great in the 80s but that's where they should have stayed...in my opinion but c'est la vie

I think a very select small amount of them do still have some degree of holding up to this day, like Soundwave and Fortress Maximus in particular, but overall I do agree as well.ZeroWolf wrote:Aimless Misfire wrote:fenrir72 wrote:please support these products people!
