    Robot Kingdom just posted pre orders for G1 Constructicon Collection Pack, available July 2018.

    They also list G1 Starscream (July 2018) and a G1 Legion 8 pack (August 1, 2018) that are also Walmart exclusives. The Legion 8 pack has pictures of Outback, Tailgate, Bumblebee, and Swerve.

    Looks like Hot Rod isn't the only one coming out in G1 packaging. This will be a site to behold if they're all on the shelf at the same time!

    Walmart Links:
    Hot Rod
    Devastator Gift Set
    Starscream
    Bumblebee
    Outback
    Swerve
    Tailgate

    Hasbro's official images for starscream and product description

    Experience the figures that started it all. This Transformers: Vintage G1 Starscream figure is designed like the original G1 version -- including figure styling, packaging and art style inspired by the 1984 G1 release, plus classic tech specs and accessories. (Re)start a vintage Transformers collection with this Decepticon Air Commander Starscream figure.

    Starscream seeks to replace Megatron as Leader. He’s ruthless, coldblooded, and cruel. He believes Decepticons should rely on guile and speed rather than brute force to defeat the Autobots. He shoots cluster bombs and null-rays that disrupt the flow of electricity.

    This Starscream figure comes equipped with Null-Ray cannons and converts between jet and robot modes in 10 steps. Clip out and save the on-box tech specs to share, then see how this figure stacks up against other heroic Autobots and evil Decepticons (each sold separately).

    Transformers and all related characters are trademarks of Hasbro.

    • Re-creation of the original G1 Decepticon Air Commander Starscream figure
    • Inspired by the styling of the 1984 G1 release
    • Vintage decoration and sticker decals
    • Tech specs showing the capabilities of Starscream
    • Decepticon Air Commander Starscream seeks conquest made from the ashes of his foes
    • Includes: figure, 17 accessories, instructions
    • Ages 6 and up

    So when is Walmart expecting to have these in stock? Robot Kindom tends to get stuff earlier than most people do, so I want to know if I’m able to pick these up in retail or not.

    I really, really, REALLY hope these make it to the shelves of stores; and stocked abundantly.

    The nostalgia of being 10 years old again and walking through TRU, Child World and KayBee would be AMAZING!!!!!!

    Ahhh, the pre Buy it Now days.

    Awesome that they're continuing with this, I hope they do even more. I'm down for a Starscream; don’t think I need Devastator or the Minibots.

    btw the case breakdown for the minibots is full case of 8, consisting of 3 Bumblebee, 1 Outback, and 2 each of Swerve and Tailgate.
    Don't know why they shortpacked My boy Outback.

    Well, wasnt planning on adding g1 Starscream to my collection yet, but this seems like as good a time as any to make it happen, especially with that Megatron gun accessory. Not really interested in the other personally, but glad to see them come out anyways and that Hot Rod wasnt just a weird one off reissue

    Wal-Mart can barely carry the regular TFs, will be interested to see how they will handle these.

    Definitely in for a few minibots. I hope these do well enough that we get some late G1 molds.

    I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that packaging!

    That said, I have all of these, and I'm slightly disheartened that they're the copy-of-a-copy-of-a-copy molds. But, ANY original series reissues is good. Thanks, Hasbro!

    Sweet Christmas! I can finally finish my minibot collection if they do the others as well. Maybe a Bruticus gift set so I can finally own the original mold of my favorite combiner!
