Thanks to Full Metal Hero's Stripe we some in-hand images of the Transformers Prime Cyberverse Bumblebee Battle Suit. Stripe's full review can be found by clicking here.

Is this an essential purchase? No.
Is this is a lot of fun? Yes!
Battlesuit Bumblebee is one of those toys i'm pretty sure every single fan would have already made a decision on whether they want it or not. There isn't really any waiting and seeing on this one - it either floats your boat or it doesn't. I mean it's all very very yellow, and if you're not a fan of the little chubster this won't change your opinion.
However, if you like your Cyberverse playsets then you'll get a kick out of this one. Personally I think he is pretty awesonme, and could imagine Bee busting this out during the Autobots darkest hour when Prime is about to be off'd by Megatron with an immortal line such as 'get away from her you bitch!'.

I was about to make an alien reference, then I saw the last photo... Still, this does look alot cooler than I originally thought, and would be a must buy if I collected cyberverse. That being said, I would love to see this givin a darker, more battle hardened paint job.

so I wasn't the only one :lol:

anyhow even if I collected Cybervers/Legends this wouldn't be something I'd try and get. It's all too cluttered looking, with all that junk just hanging off

I could see this being good fodder for a custom cityformer or something. I may get him just for customization (though we're talking a LOT of paint, so I may not :P).

I think the kids would have a blast with this. Fits right in with Optimus Maximus. What's with the Light Bulb graphic on the package? Do marketers really think stuff like that works? "New Amazing Product!"

Seriously, with some paintwork, this thing would rock! I mean, picture that, but with damaged, construction vehicle look.

I like how tanky and bulky it is. why not paint it green and make it Bulkhead's mech suit? Like he was damaged far to much from Tox-N and he needs that to get around.

The chest and overall construction even reminds me of Bulkhead.

The fact that this thing ACTUALLY transforms make it interesting.

:-? So now Bumblebee has now got his own battlesuit. To be honest, I think that this is more suited to Bulkhead considering how fat and bulky it is. I`m not saying that this is bad but I think that a character other than Bumblebee(e.g Bulkhead)could have this battlesuit.

That's been brought up a few times now, and I agree. But Bumblebee is the kid appeal character, sooooooooo...

Of course that said, this thing looks pretty good. Much like the Weaponizers, the Optimus one is derpy while the Bee one is actually really good!

:shock: Wow. I mean, WOW! :shock:

This thing look incredibly AWESOME!

This IS actually a REAL power armor! This is not a peice of scrap with full of holes like Optimus Maximus. This thing is impressive to no end. Seeing that cyberverse Bumblebee inside that thing just show how HUGE that thing actually is and how Bumblebee mean business!

I'M.

SO.

BUYING.

THIS.

ON.

DAY.

ONE.


And you know about my TRANSFORMERS WAR?

If you take a closer look at this scene:

I think a suit-up Bumblebee will be a nice opponent to Payload.

:michaelbay: TOPSPIN WILL BE AVENGED! :michaelbay:

Indeed, indeed! I'll wait for it to go on sale, but I honestly want this. It just looks good and solid and...well...like a powered-armor should!

100% agreed! :lol:

Now maybe if Hasbro added both some extra coloring and a few more details that define it as B's armor, I would probably have liked this. But with the way it is... I am wondering how long it will take until somebody says "Hey! [insert store here] has this "Melted Yellow Crayon" Bumblebee on clearance!" :P
