Beezleboss Teases Throttlebots for 2012

Postby El Duque » Tue Mar 06, 2012 7:56 am

Motto: "I ain't got time to bleed!"
Weapon: Gattling Gun
Third-party accessory maker Beezleboss have updated their blog with a teaser image of their next project, Throttlebots! The teaser image below reveals concept art for Chase and Searchlight. Like their previous "Devil Horns" upgrade for Classics Cliffjumper and their forthcoming "Growing Pains" upgrade for United Bumblebee, these kits appear to be designed around the Classics Bumblebee mold. However, the only figures that come molded in the correct colors are Classics Cliffjumper and BotCon Bugbite.

Let the speculation begin!!! ;)

Will they be add on parts for a current mold (ala FP/BB Cliff)?
Will they be a part re-shell?
Will they be a step into a full on new mold figure?

We all know some 3rd party folk start off with small add-ons then progress to their own created figures! :-?

The back of those cars look suspiciously like the Classics Bumblebee mold.

If these are add-ons, how are we meant to deal with the colours of the figures? Maybe these are add-ons for Cliffjumper and Bugbite.

You could be onto something there with the back end of Cliff/Bee, even that little tab hole on the roof looks familiar!
Thing is with this mold there only seems to be Bumblebee freely available. Cliff is rare and there no chance of getting Bugbite!

Get your paint set out boys!! #-o

It looks like there are parts for a total reshell of the BB mold (you'll notice there are different backs for the figure). If so you may not need a Cliffjumper or Botcon Bugbite, but any of the cheaper BBs available.

Agreed. Not the smartest idea making add-ons for some of the rarest Classics figures. That is of course if they are add-ons.

I've said it many times before and I'm going to repeat it: I'd like new molds for my Throttlebots, which is annoying seeing as the Classics Bumblebee mold is pretty much perfect. If iGear include Bumblebee and Cliffjumper in their MiniWarriors line I'll get them and donate deluxe BB and CJ to the Throttlebot cause.

You cant bolt on the obvious white searchlights on the hood or extra vents on Chases doors. These are plain and clearly re-shells of the Bumblebee mold. I think that's a great idea !!! Once again who needs Hasbro ???

I will be interested in these if they are reshells that Beezleboss makes. I'm not gonna alter my Botcon Bugbite for this. I'm not one for value in my collection, but I'm also not gonna try and devalue my botcon guys for this. And yeah, the after market for Bugbite and CJ would just make these guys not worth buying if you need those figures. That's just sales you won't be making.

FansProject did it with CJ, although I do agree that they're more than likely reshells simply because it makes more sense.
