    More official images of the 4 Walmart Headmaster reissues, giving us a good look at the retro styled boxes.

    Looks like the Headmaster faces on the box art have been altered to match the faces found on each relevant toy. A number of those G1-style boxes will sadly end up with bent flaps.

    Well yeah, you're right; Hardhead's practically a whole different head! The faces and the Nebulon's legs added and some other minor details. Doesn't look like any of the rest of the body has been altered though.

    I googled up some images of the Japanese releases ibut those had the same artwork as the Hasbro ones (thanks Heroic_Decepticon where ever you are)

    Yep, the artwork on the vintage Hasbro and Takara boxes appear to be identical.

    On closer inspection, it seems the Walmart Headmasters feature the Legends heads on Titans Return (TR) toy bodies. They feature TR colours and tampo printed 'stickers'.

    The Hasbro product numbers for the four that were revealed, is missing a number... so it's possible there are more to come (or there were more planned), as it would be annoying not to have the full set of Autobots and Decepticons... and they could keep going too, with the Horrorcons (Apeface and Snapdragon).

    Chromedome: Hasbro product code # F1022
    Hardhead: Hasbro product code # F1023
    Brainstorm: Hasbro product code # F1025
    Mindwipe: Hasbro product code # F1026

    Weirdwolf, Skullcruncher and Highbrow for wave 2

    Right now I'm a little concerns about this twitter thread https://twitter.com/tfwiki/status/13...240347649?s=20

    The pressure exerted on the soft plastic of Mindwipe's wing hinges and Weirdwolf's cockpit hinge causes them to shatter.
