Vintage

Vintage G1 is a series of Generation 1 reissues from Hasbro which began in 2018.

Packaged in Generation 1-styled boxes complete with fonts, classic box art and Tech Spec, all the figures thus far have been exclusive to Walmart in the United States and Canada, but have also been released in Asian markets, and the first wave of the "Legion Class" assortment has even been available in Australia (in European market packaging for whatever reason), exclusive to clothing chain CottonOn. The toys themselves hew closely to the original releases, mostly using The Transformers Collection variants, incorporating subtle differences for safety or other reasons. Like their original releases, many include sticker-sheets for the customer to apply, enhancing the ~~maddening, hair-pulling~~ warm nostalgic experience.

After the release of Hot Rod and Starscream, Hasbro responded to ~~wails~~ feedback from customers, rounding off the boxflap corners on the packaging for the Optimus Prime and Soundwave releases.
