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!

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!

Here's a quick search I did for other listings.

Scroll down to the bottom.
I didn't find Bee, Swerve, or HotRod, but al the others are there.
You can bookmark Devy in case you want to hawk him.
Edit: Whoa. Weird. After checking my link the search results changed since the last time I looked. Devy is not there, Tailgate is active, and now Swerve is up but Outback is gone.
Edit Edit: Now I've lost them all. Walmart.com is an absolute mess to navigate.

Just found a thread on TFW. Looks like they were all in stock. Folks said they were able to PO all the figures. Interesting that SS is the only thing still in stock. I figured that would be one of the first to sell out along with Devy. Really hope Walmart gets additional stock soon.

Yeah, most were available today (including Starscream) but all were eventually sold out
Also, your handy news staffer already compiled the entire list to walmart links: https://www.seibertron.com/transformers ... ues/41614/
Also, Outback is shortpacked to accomodate 3 BBs (which also sold out insantly)

I've been checking the website pretty regularly. The one time this week I haven't checked for about 3 hours is the exact time it goes in and out of stock.

They put a pretty strong emphasis on these being available in stores this fall at Walmart during the SDCC TF toy panel. If you miss out getting them online they should be available locally, too.

While SDCC chugs along, it's important to remember that news still happens outside that convention! Fellow Seibertronian Samsonator has spotted the Walmart-exclusive G1 reissue Minibots at (naturally) a Walmart near South Surrey BC. Bumblebee, Swerve and Tailgate were all present and accounted for, at $11.97 CAD (about $9.10 USD)... and Swerve and Tailgate also brought with them some more interesting news.
It seems that a new variety of rubsigns has debuted with these reissues, differing from the old kind in a few ways. Aside from a more reflective silver, the actual "rubsign" part itself is apparently made from a softer material, and the Autobot logo appears simply as red rather than a variety of colors depending on the temperature.
Check out the image of the sighting below, and check Samsonator's Twitter post for a video showing off the new rubsigns! Share any thoughts you may have in the Energon Pub Forums, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com for more Transformers news!

but the rubsigns have always been much less preferable than actual normal insignias. When I got various Classics and Reveal the Shield figures I peeled those darn things off and replaced with reprolabels.

I will NOT bother going to my Walmart looking for these G1 minibots. I know I'll just find empty pegs, the SCALPER CARRIONS PLAGUE having already done it's work. I hope Walmart put a shaytons of them on the pegs, enough for these fokkers scalpers to be stuck with hundreds of dollars of unsold inventory for years.

Ugh... There is no South Surrey.
It's just Surrey.
Honestly, at a job years ago, as I lived in Surrey, I was asked to go through the customer database and fix the addresses of people who rather than just saying they lived in Surrey, had entered South Surrey (doesn't exist) or Sunnyside (just neighborhood) or White Rock (a separate city). You can tell yourself you don't, but Canada Post says you do.
Back on track however, I was at the Walmart in Central City (Surrey Place) last night and no sign of these.

You're not wrong, I live in Surrey, but close to White Rock. When I say "South Surrey" I (just speaking for myself, here) mean "the southern part of Surrey". Specifically this was the Walmart at 24th Ave and 160th street. Sadly, after I got through with it, there was only a Tailgate left.

It's just Surrey.
Honestly, at a job years ago, as I lived in Surrey, I was asked to go through the customer database and fix the addresses of people who rather than just saying they lived in Surrey, had entered South Surrey (doesn't exist) or Sunnyside (just neighborhood) or White Rock (a separate city). You can tell yourself you don't, but Canada Post says you do.
Back on track however, I was at the Walmart in Central City (Surrey Place) last night and no sign of these.
You're not wrong, I live in Surrey, but close to White Rock. When I say "South Surrey" I (just speaking for myself, here) mean "the southern part of Surrey". Specifically this was the Walmart at 24th Ave and 160th street. Sadly, after I got through with it, there was only a Tailgate left.

I figured that was where you ment, thanks for clarifying, and sorry for the aggravated response. It's something that has bothered me for years that rather that changing the stigma of Surrey that many would rather try to deny they live there, not caring that by doing so they were making that stigma worse.
I'll either be at Nordel or Guildford tomorrow and will post if I see anything.

That did not last long, as the IGN article indicated, the G1 reissues were going to go on sale at Walmart.com this week. Most did and they sold out within less than a day. Starscream is still available for preorder though. While these are showing up at brick and mortar in Canada, we have yet to get a brick and mortar sighting in the US. We have included the links below for you to bookmark them, preorder those available, or sign up for in stock alerts.
Here is hoping all those who want these toys get them. Also, just for info, if any of you have any inclination towards getting Outback, do not hesitate if you see him. He is short packed in order for there to be three Bumblebees, which are also in incredibly high demand due to the remolded cartoon face never before released in the US.
Here are the links:

It took like another 14 years for Bb anime head to show up. Might be a factor.

Of course not. They're all ultra limited edition. So go to your friendly scalper and pay 3 times it's worth!
It's MP Starscream all over again.
Yeah, I'm of little faith here and pretty bitter. But eh.....

Heh I'm still holding onto some faith. I think it'll restock again, maybe closer to ship date. Here's hoping....
