Haha.. well then I guess its good I didnt include in that pic my misb 08 bumbebee




Well I'm not a fan of Voyager starscream. I really just like his protoform a lot more and am happy with him. I may get voyager prime if i find him and I havent seen leader prime so I cant say im getting him or not. I like his protoform a lot too so who knows.. do you have leader prime?

yea i have leader prime, i really want protoform prime as well, but i have never seen him in person.

I like protoform in alt mode and robot mode. He moves really well and is very very poseable. I got him off walmarts website. I used the ship to store option and picked it up in about a week.

Lucky... I am gonna post a pic when i have the Unleashed line.

no one sees any conflict in a poster named 08Bumblebee_Scalper congratulating himself on how many 08 Bumblebees he has?

Well congratulations on whatever satisfaction that "rise" gives you but I certainly wouldnt have named myself after a scalper, the lowest bottom feeding scum of the TF social ring.

to each his own.

I picked up one Bumblebee despite there being like 2 - 3 more on the shelf. What right do I have to rob a kid of an awesome figure? And to add insult to injury, if I bought an extra one, keeping him MISB so I could sell him later - what a joke and an insult to a CHILDREN'S toyline. I don't see why anyone would want another duplicate - if you wnat a duplicate, get one that is an unpopular, unplayable figure - honestly!

I've never bought a double figure, ever, in my life (I'm 18). A waste of my own money and taking away another kid's right to fun (where Scalpers and many collectors are trampling on). Especially in such a heated time where it's very difficult to find a 08 bumblebee - I see young 'uns desperately trying to find this figure with their dads. Had the shop not been empty of other customers I was considering telling the shopkeeper to display the Bumblebees more conspicuously.

come on, be a good sport. Be thankful you're getting one at all. Keeping one as MISB to me is just telling of why kids hate collectors. These are meant to be played around with!

here I thought I'd see a nice big pic with galvatron, hotrod and kup, etc.
oh well. liking the deluxe cars from this new movie quite a bit, don't have any yet, but I may give in. leader Megs looked pretty impressive in person too

I might have to hook you w/ one since they are common where I'm at.

No. It's called being selfish. People like you are the reason why I and another collector didn't get an '08 Bumblebee this morning. (along with many other fans looking for their's.) Oh don't mind me, step around my vomit, I just can't help it, hoarders like you make me sick. Excuse me, I think I'm going to be ill again.

I'd love to smash both of your's with a sledgehammer, and I'd enjoy ever single minute of it.

Uhm ... you could never destroy the brand new 08 BB could you? ...

I dont know what to say about this thread.

Yeah although I don't approve of what Autobot32 said, I quite understand his sentiments.

nice picture but you really should get the regular Prime and Starscream then it will feel more like the movie cast than what you have there.

Ignore Autobot032 he's just mad because he doesn't have a BB yet, niether do I but I know they are going to get released soon.

Nothing wrong with picking up an extra MISB version of something. I have a feeling since he's a favorite he'll always have some value and be sought after.

I disregard everyones anger towards me because I got 2 (NO DEAR GOD NOT TWO!!) 08's. I understand your jealous. And for little Timmy that doesnt have his because I got an extra one, think about how sweet his Christmas morning will be when he sees his under the tree. Or maybe he wont care because within the next two weeks the market will be flooded with movie deluxe toys.


As for the douche that wants to smash my 08's im not sure who this forum would hate me, me or you.

Um, no many people on this website collect 2 of each figure. That's why it's a collection. So stop carrying on about it, and that goes for everyone else.

And enough about the limited quantity of 08 Bumblebees, this will be a shelf warmer in a month.

The first post says "Enjoy, and please refrain from too much jealousy!!!", believe me I'm not jealous. I've got 22 movie figures which includes every main character, some are different class variations. Take Optimus Prime for example--2 Protoforms, Voyager Test Shot, and Leader all sit on one shelf. My movie figures cover 2 shelves now.

And BTW, we've got three Concept Camaro BB in our house; one is mine, and both of my daughters have one too.

Well, I'm still working on all the autobots (only got Jazz and Proto-Prime)... Ratchet just doesn't appeal to me, though... so I don't know if I'll ever have all the movie 'bots... I do, however, own every decepticon in that picture, and the deluxe scorpy because it's actually kinda grown on me. His fan-made "Kaiju Mode" really makes him pretty cool.

I totally agree with you. I work in retail (Target) and we have not had ANY Deluxe Class Movie figures in at least 2 weeks!! Why? Because somebody came in and bought EVERY figure we had, probably to put on e-bay for 6 times the retail, to scalp and rip off people who have absolutely no chance to purchase just one figure for their poor kid. I feel sorry, but the figures are just simply back ordered weeks from now.
And speaking of BBs (either version) there are only 1 or 2 per case, and I personally have not seen the 09 BB in my store. NEVER. I was lucky enough to have found 4 - Classic 74 BBs, that I was more than happy to go to the backroom to dig thru 3 cases ( each case has 8 RANDOM figures ) and no more, so I put all 4 on the peghooks, and gave one to the child. He was EXTATIC. I made his day. The dad thanked me profusely. I told him "no big, it's my job!" So there you go, true story.[size=18]edit- BTW, the market is flooded w/ 09 BB's - just do a search on e-bay for Transformers Movie Camaro Concept Bumblebee ....here's the link....http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?sofocus=bs&sbrftog=1&catref=C6&from=R10&_trksid=m37&satitle=Transformers+Camaro+Concept+Bumblebee&sacat=220%26catref%3DC6&sargn=-1%26saslc%3D2&sadis=200&fpos=ZIP%2FPostal&sabfmts=1&saobfmts=insif&ftrt=1&ftrv=1&saprclo=&saprchi=&fsop=1%26fsoo%3D1&coaction=compare&copagenum=1&coentrypage=search[/size]

You like Protoform Starscream better than Voyager?
Well i guess i shouldn't be complaining...after all... my favorite Starscream is the Fast Action Starscream!
Did i mention i love my BK Starscream?!
