I would stoop to fighting with an eight-year-old for that two-pack. Guess I better stay sharp.

Hmm, I hope this set comes out in Australia, because I definitely want to get it. Sure, I only really collect Bumblebees, but an Optimus Prime never hurt anyone (well, except Decepticons, of course).

Yeah the pic's gone. Can some one post it?

I'm getting bandwith frog too.

He's supposed to be '09, like he was in the movie. I am probably going to just get him as a single though. I would only want that Optimus to have a toy closer in scale to my deluxe Bonecrusher.

No, he's actually the Camaro Prototype. But, there will be a production Camaro on dealer lots this Fall, 2007 as a 2008 model.

That Voyager Optimus is still a LOT taller than Bonecrusher though. BC is a shrimp compared to anyone else, sadly.

I know this is the toy forum, but had to correct this. The new Camaro isn't coming out until 08. It is the 09 model, they aren't making an 08 model. The only place that will be getting them a little early is Australia, since they will be the test market. The hard top and convertible should be out at the same time. And you know that with GM making a special edition consumer version of Ironhide that they will most likely be making one of BB (& Jazz) too, so they definitely need all the time they can get.

I'm not interested in Optimus Prime. I want Bumblebee 08 though!!!

As long as it's not a Target exclusive, we should be safe. Looks like Hasbro ponied up and but the two packs in Wallys and TRU here in Canada.

I haven't seen any of the two-packs in my area yet. Doesn't really bother me since I don't want any of them!

Wow, cool, I hope this comes to Canada because I want both of those figures.

I hope is a Toys R Us exclusive.

Nice

I agree...

the only explanation I have is it could be that there are 2 bumblebee 08s that were produced.

like the first ones we saw on ebay, they had the mistransformed chest, similar to the Ultimate Bumblebee Figure.




I believe that fan Feedback over the chest had caused them to release a better version that mirrors the movie.




I personally prefer the movie accurate version.. but it could be mistransformed, who knows...

Oh, not THIS again...

From the pictures we have seen these is ONE version of Bumblebee. In some cases, his chest is folded down but in some cases it is not. It's still the same figure.

you might be right, I am not sure...

I don't mean to beat a dead horse either..

but I only have one question about that though.. why would they make the chest able to transform in either way??

They wouldn't. And they didn't.

Love the 2 pack. I just hope its not an exclusive. Let it be mass distribution. I really hate exclusives.

No Targets or TRU's here, only Wal-Marts. And they never bring there exclusives here.

A: That's the best Sig I've ever seen.

B: That's because Hasbro hates Quebec along with the rest of the world I have the BB & BC 2-pack and the Blackout/Scorpinok 2-pack and I think I wouldn't mind seeing that BB & Prime two pack on my display aswell.

Are these out? Are they orders only?

Shenobi how do you find all this stuff?

It's...not there anymore. Please mirror it...again.
