First Look at Trans-Scanning Bumblebee and Optimus Prime Toy Prototypes
Posted by Skowl Fri Nov 16, 2007 9:43 am
Hong Kong newsgroup talk.transformers has posted images of the new Trans-Scanning Bumblebee and Optimus Prime figures. We had previously seen concept art for these two figures, but this is the first we see of the actual toys.
Both Bumblebee and Prime share the same protoform mold, but with attachable pieces that form the vehicle and earth robot modes.

Pretty cool. They don't look exactly the way I thought they would; kinda "Shellformer-ish", but they're still pretty awesome. I think Bumblebee's a little cooler than Prime...

Ah yes the big gun!
Id idn't knwo they were going to transform into alt modes too, that's a nice bonus, and they look pretty good. Need to see better photos though

I'd like to see them fully colored before I give a yay or nay either way, but I like the concept and from what you can see in these pics they look pretty decent. I'd love to see a few more of tehse like Ironhide or Starscream.

I'm sold I just hope BBTS will be taking preorders for these.
What Transformer are you? (Movie)
My Results:
Ironhide
You are the weapon specialist. You are probably the only Autobot who doesn't give a crud about the humans and repeatedly asks permission to blow something up. You are very strong and big as well as always suggesting the BIGGER sort of weapon. You are also good at sports; mostly contact sports. You can be easily irritated and may have anger issues. You also have a huge truck mode. Sweet.

That's a very cool idea...I need to see the final colored versions before I pass final judgement. But I'm impressed that they transform too...
It finally happened. The Chicago Cubs won the World Series. Yes, I cried.

Their armored forms look cool, but too bad their proto forms aren't more personalized. A chance get some Protoform toys out there, but alas, I still have to wait.

Very interesting, I imagine they'll be Dlx-sized. The robot modes look substantially different from the existing toys, which is pretty natural given how these new ones work. Still a cool idea tho, I hope they won't be too expensive and have good articulation.
I wonder if they actually transform like the existing ones, or if you have to pull the armor off, tf, and add the alt-mode parts. FWIW that'd be OK w/ me.
One nit I'll pick: BB never scanned the Concept Camaro disguise from his protoform, he had already assumed the older Camaro look when he scanned the new one. FWIW

That's more effort than Hasblo put into toys. Congrats TakTomy!
I suppose both are deluxe class?

these look pretty nice. Prime in particular impresses in both armoured modes, hopefully the protoforms are painted differently enough to make them distinguishable. Not sure from the pics if they will be properly tranformable with the panels added or if they'll be kinda lego-like but either way, if BB transformers better than the normal one it can't be a bad thing.
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Astrotrain, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, or 3rd Party iGear Ratchet and Ironhide.
Also looking for Universe Repugnus and Overbite, Frostbite and Longhorn and any Webdiver toys.

These remind me of a try serise that was out earlier in the year. No idea what it was called but it was pretty much the same thing. A basic 'robot' that you put the peices of the vehicle on to make armor.
It has begun, let the parts fall from the sky.
