Me too if there were nice PICTURES and descriptions!

This is it, the key hero “Allspark Cube” from Transformers! This amazing item is an integral part of the story
and is one of the most recognizable props from the film.

Uhhhh, is it wood, resin, metal? IS it carved, molded, how detailed is it? Dimesions PLEASE??? What kind of (you know I wanna swear here) person lists an auction like this?

Meanwhile, site unseen it's $1,600+. I guess I'm the only person that likes to know what his hard earned money is going to...

Does the car run? I mean if I win it can I drive it? I am going to bid for the car i think. I have $30,000 in savings. Of course my wife will kill me. I should rethink this.

Exactly. It would have been nice if they brought up this important peice of information! Go look on ebay motors at cars for sale. There are 20 pics or more on some listings and they could be selling a Kia for gods sake.

I know being a "prop" entitles this some special circumstances, but how are you gonna list something this significant with a publiclty still as you're only image?

Whatever, I'm beating a dead horse here 14K in less than a day I guess people dont give a crap. they just want BUMBLEBEE OMG!

Hence why i think its fake. One stock photo, no description as to the actual running ability of the car, whats wrong with it, what parts it may need, how many miles etc etc.

Its a fake. Just buy your own 77 Camaro and paint it custom faded yellow and black.

I am not a big fan of muscle cars, but when they shwoed that hopped-up 350 Chevy under the hood...I was very tempted.

This car will fetch $30K, or more.

Even with "custom faded paint".

If you look closely at the geneology, you can see that there's either something VERY fishy going on in Sam's family, or he's a really lousy geneologist. Cptn Archibald Witwicky married Barbara, and together, their progeny was... Clarisse McPeck (who's listed as marrying Anthony Witwicky). Either there are two Witwicky lines that merge into one, or Sam screwed up.

I think you are right. Because just after the early 70s, they did away with the metal bumpers, but i don't know what year exactly. Good eye though.

It's not a fake. It's a beat up Camaro from the movie. Is it in working order? I don't know. I will call tomorow because I suspect that it is not driveable in it's current condition as it has a trailer welded underneath it (you can see the hitch in the front). It would help if they stated in the auction the condition of the vehicle.

Liege Evilmus wrote:My first car was that same Camaro in white, and everything that went wrong with it in the movie (the smoke cloud and breaking down) are very reminisient of what I went throught with Lil' Delton.

When I heard a yellow version of him gonna be in this film, I became estatic for altought he broke down often, on several occasions even with fire, I loved that old hooptie.

I even got some extra BBs just to retool and paint.

Now I see this auction as I look at my primed airbrush and curse my lack of wealth as in a drunken state I can see me ruining this undoutebly priceless collectabile just to regain a piece of my past.

And when it all comes down to it, isn't that what adult collecting is all about.

Then again Lil' Delon only cost me $450(I screamed that out when Sam payed $4000). So I'm sure if I realy wanted to I could do all this for alot cheaper, and not feel so bad after I realy ruin it by taking a torch to it thinking I can realy make it transform with just a few adjustments.

Someone in my little bitty town has one of those Camaros, in Gray, and I never noticed until yesterday, after 3 days of playing with my BB toy. XD

And yeah, $450 dollars is a steal compared to 4000...buuuuut...could YOUR Camaro do what Bumblebee did??? :P I think Sam got a bargain! Not only did he get a kickass car, he got a new buddy! XD

Either way, I'd kill for my own 77 Camaro Bumblebee...but I'm thinking it would just be cheaper in the long run to buy an old one from someone and fix it up myself. >_> Though my Aveo will probably be all jealous at me having another "favorite car" to take it's place.

If anything (drivable or not) I'm guessing you'll be getting something like this http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Fe ... eId=121138

I hope the buyer doesn't think they are getting the shiny "NEW" engine admired by Mikela.

That sucks, but I wanted to know if that was the same engine in the film.

Oh well. Now, it seems like quite a ripoff. If it had the hot engine with 8 bellmouths and all the other go-fast parts, then you could just restore the cosmetics and have a great little muscle car.

I wonder where that shiny engine is, because damn it looked nice?
