Return to the golden era of Generation 1 with Transformers Retro Headmasters, a collector-focused reissue line that faithfully recreates the original 1987 Headmasters figures—right down to the packaging. Featuring the classic Headmaster gimmick where a smaller Nebulan pilot transforms into the robot's head, these figures bring the vintage charm of G1 back to store shelves with modern quality control.
Each figure in the Retro Headmasters series is a detailed reissue of the Japanese G1 designs, not the updated Titans Return molds. They feature:
G1-Accurate Molds – Based on the Japanese releases, including more detailed head sculpts and proportions truer to the original animation and vintage toys.
Retro Packaging – Box art and logos straight out of the late ‘80s, perfect for display or mint-in-box collecting.
Play-Ready Gimmicks – The Headmaster partner still converts into the head of the robot, retaining the tech spec-style compatibility and classic transformation feel.
Characters in this line include fan-favorites like Chromedome, Hardhead, Brainstorm, and Mindwipe—all recreated to look and feel like the vintage figures many fans grew up with.
Whether you're looking to recapture your childhood collection or fill a gap on your G1 shelf, the Retro Headmasters line offers authentic nostalgia with the bonus of modern-day production quality. The packaging alone evokes a deep sense of Transformers history, while the toys themselves are sturdy, playable, and instantly recognizable to long-time fans.
TFSource proudly offers a full selection of Transformers Retro Headmasters, shipped collector-grade and backed by our stackable preorder system and Source Points rewards.
