They have similar helmets (yellow and horned) and color schemes.

Is this significant, or is it simply an odd occurrence?

Unicron is orange.

Evidently you don't know about the Spawns of Unicron, of which Bumblebee was suspected to be one of the most prominent members, hidden as an Autobot spy for years? It was a 12 part mini-series, I'm surprised you hadn't seen it.

Or the appearances, as vague as they may be, could be entirely coincidental. :grin:

I wouldn't mind seeing that as a real mini-series, just for fun.

Is Cliffjumper his Herald then?

by **Greed** » Sat Feb 17, 2007 12:37 pm

Bumblebee, a direct descendant of Unicron, a son if you will, planted in the Autobot ranks for spying. Fearing for Bumblebee a herald was created, Cliffjumper, to watch over him.

Or not.

I thought Unictron tried to kill Bumbelbee and failed thanks to Spike's son Daniel...

(sorry, the mispelling of descendant made for a real interesting connotation in thay sentence :grin:

)

That was all a farce, if you notice Bumblebee was one of the few season 1 Autobots to make it through the movie, coincidence? I think not!

After his father's untimely death Bumblebee decided to alter his appearance out of respect for the fallen.

I find it hard to believe that friendly little Bumblebee is the spawn of the Transformers' Satan.

It is always the ones you least expect. Bumblebee will be the downfall of the Autobots, Prime better watch his ass!

Now I want see an actual story about this, may have to do it myself. :-?

You and many others have been left in the dark. After extensive research and discovery over at Hasbro's secret underground war bunker I was able to discover the truth!

Mabye there is a deleted scene from TF:TM where Bumblebee calls Unicron Daddy :lol:

Ehh, Not enough.

by **Screambug** » Mon Feb 19, 2007 6:41 pm

I was going to say that Bumblebee is Unicron's secret grandchild. :lol:

Nevermind, better treat Bumblebee kindly; he was ALSO originally from Nazi Germany, which produced masses of innocent-looking Volkswagons to spy on us Americans! :shock:

Thanks to Optimus Prime's kindly, father-figure, Bumblebee has reverted to his sweet, bubbling childishness so far, not to worry for now.

Which is also why BB will never be a VW ever again.

Although I see why VW are upset about it, all they did was produce cars for your average Joe Von Everygerman in the street, they should count themselves lucky that they don't have something really shameful in their past, like how Hugo Boss designed the SS uniforms.
