Starting in 2023, Walmart and Hasbro's Vintage G1 line was changed into the Transformers Retro or Retro G1 line.  The initial figures in the line focused on G1 cartoon decos on G1 toy reissues.  Later, modern toys would be released in more toy accurate decos with G1 styled packaging.  Several "40th Anniversary" figures also fell into this category.
