For the love of God not ANOTHER Bumblebee figure. Out of all the possible characters (Fallen, Bonecrusher, and most of all Blackout/Grindor) they are still hooked on Bumblebee???? Please let it be a rumor!

Yeah, definitely fake. And I also doubt it's some kind of TF3 test-shot, either.

First of all, it can't possibly be leader-class. For a start, all Leader-class toys have to have a 'try me' button on the chest. This dude has the same chest as HABB, so there's no button or switch there.

And where would the batteries go? Again, it's the same upper body as HABB, which pretty much fills up every conceivable space inside that car.

And a light in the gun arm? There's no way you can run a load of wires down the inside of the arm unless you seriously impair the articulation.

I wouldn't actually mind a good, solid leader-class version of Bumblebee. Human Alliance and even the Gravity Bots have shown me there's still scope for more BB toys yet.

But there's no way this pic is real - I'm calling shenanigans.

Technically you don't have to run a wire down the arm. You can place an LED in the gun as well as the button cells to power it. Regardless, I have HABB and that's the only one I need. If this were to turn out true, I would pass on him as it makes no sense to have a BB that large.

obviously it's just a mod of human alliance, no way is it a new fig. and this is just logic but why would they make a leader class figure of a very small bot? (:|

The answer to that is very simple, my friend... THEY'RE NOT GONNA MAKE ONE!!! :-P

They've stated time and time again that becasue Bonecrusher was such minor character that they won't make him any larger than his Deluxe figure. They only make bigger figures of more major/popular characters.
If you've read Exodus, wanna read the War For Cybertron comic? PM me.

God that's so fake. @_@

If they're going to make anymore Leader class toys, make Blackout, Ironhide, or Bonecrusher.

Oh yeah, and whoever it was who said something about them only having one color of lights? Not on my Leader Brawl... he's got green lights on his shoulder cannons, and a red light on his long cannon.

Well, Brawl was hardly a major player in the first movie.

I agree though, that Bonecrusher would seem unlikely.

For the third movie, we'll most likely have Prime & Megs again, plus one or two others, possibly new characters.
