Hallmark has revealed their 2018 Transformers G1 Ornament, and this time around it’s Starscream! Hallmark has been releasing G1 themed ornaments each year for a while, and over the last couple they’ve gone with a recreation of the G1 toys as their primary aesthetic. We’ve got G1 Prime, G1 Megatron, G1 Soundwave and G1 Grimlock all with toy inspired molds. Now the first Seeker will be joining the ranks. He will be available in July 2018 for $15.99 online and at Hallmark retail stores across the country.
So long, Autobots! It’s time for action with Starscream™, the power-hungry Decepticon Air Commander who considers himself the leader of the future. Fans of the classic Transformers® robots will relive the excitement of childhood each holiday season as they unbox this Christmas tree ornament.

Picked mine up today in NYC.
Love the nostalgia, hoping the cannons don't break when he's in storage for other 11mths of the year.

Looks like I'm going to Hallmark tomorrow after work.

Picked one up today as well. Such a great sculpt. Like previous ones it looks like it should move but doesn't.
I'm thinking next year will be a car bot like Prowl or Jazz, or Blaster, or even Ultra Magnus. After that, I'm betting Shockwave.

Got mine today

Autobot Burnout
Nice! He'll look great next to the Soundwave I picked up last year.

So now that they have Starscream molded, they will do what they did with the MP-11 mold, create Thundercracker, Skywarp, Ramjet, Thrust, Dirge, and Sunstorm to get more money $$$

Because these aren't toys, they're tree ornaments. The parts are small and fragile, they'd break easily and in the case of Starscream you'd probably lose the little fists.

Licensing issue. Hasbro will not grant a license for transforming merchandise.
OriginalFire
I don't understand why it can't Transform and I do by non-transforming transformers, so I'm not just complaining. The transformation would be so simple.

I'm happy it's Starscream. I thought they were going to keep alternating between Autobot and Decepticon and was afraid it would be Bumblebee.

Ditto, Chief.

terrific! Starscream will be at the top of my Christmas tree this year
(..looking forward to see the faces of of my (non-TF fans) family members… )
Predakwon
I collect these every year and put them up on my Christmas tree (much to my wife's dismay).
Optimus, Megatron, Soundwave, Grimlock, and now Starscream will be mine!
KARR
Very cool! Got Starscream for Christmas in 1984, so this'll be a memorable addition to my ornaments!
mute
Nice! Will add to my collection. Figured it would be an autobot though.
Amazingly none of them have broke on me so far.
Starscream 91
Neat! I already got the other four so this is a must but even if I didn't have the others this would still be a must… Its Starscream!
Kind of expected Bumblebee this year though since you know he had his own movie coming out but I'm hopeful next year its going to be Jazz.
CoktimusPrime
Its even got the eye visor sticker already applied! No need for DIY tweezer application.
Raiju
That looks really good! Hits right in the G1 feels. I think I'll pick this up.

I just like how the characters look on screen more than how their toys look in real life. I would’ve preferred the last 4 to be more toon inspired than toy inspired too.
