Toy News: Walmart Lists "Retro G1" Generations Bumblebee & Gears

10/11/24

In a surprise move, Walmart.com has posted two surprise listings for Retro G1 Bumblebee and Gears.  You may wonder "What's so exciting about that?  They did those years ago!" but these are not G1 figure reissues.  Instead, Bumblebee is a redeco and retool of the Netflix Bumblebee figure from 2020 and Gears is a redeco and retool of the recent Legacy Gears figure!  Their colors appear based on their G1 animated counterparts and the packaging is classic G1, even featuring their G1 Mini-Bot artwork!  Check out the product descriptions (with links to purchase pages) and images below:
