Nice! Another chance to get this two for people who missed them. Is that a new backdrop behind them?

Origin Bumblebee is great, and, dare I say, his robot mode looks more screen accurate than Netflix Bumblebee's! Specially the head and headsculpt. I actually saw a review of the figure yesterday, before PrimevsPrime uploaded anything, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5yJqwxGgsA&t=828s

His altmode, from above, looks great! His robot mode.. meh, not so much, but still can't wait to get him in-hand!

"Minimum kibble" when half his altmode is hanging off his back and the other half is hanging off his legs.

So, are the fuel rods not 5mm? I've yet to see an image of Saucer Bee actually hold them in-hand.

Edit: NVM, watched the PvP video and they are not.

For this price point, it's excellent. Plus I've seen much, much worse as far as backpack and gribble goes.

I'm really disappointed we're not getting a new version of High Octane Bee.

Those two-packs are a neat idea, but all I need is a SS Barricade.

I wish there was less leg kibble, but I'm going to try and get Origins Bee.
Looks like even a $7.74 sale price isn't enough for me to keep the Bee and Spike 2 pack.

Something interesting to note on the Buzzworthy 2-packs: They're packed in cases of 4, so either one of the sets we've seen is double packed, or there's a 4th one we haven't seen yet.

Vs. Shatter I reckon. Question is, which one?

So lots of news to get through on this Target find. A new case of Transformers product was found at Target and inside it were four boxes of four packs (as it says on the case). We then got images of three of the boxes found inside. They are all repacks of Studio Series figures and those figures are:

SS27 Clunker Bumblebee vs SS28 Barricade
SS18 VW Bumblebee vs SS46 Car Dropkick
SS79 High Octane Bumblebee vs SS02 Stinger

These represent the first time these characters met, which reminds us that Bumblebee was in his High Octane mode when he first saw Stinger.

Speaking of which, the SS79 High Octane Bumblebee is the same toy we got in Age of Extinction and thus this tells us that the Studio Series 79 toy will simply be that toy rerelerased. Many AOE toys did end up in the "Premier Edition" Transformers TLK line which in turn has been grouped into the Studio Series line (with Cogman and Drift getting no mold changes). Does that mean we probably won't get a new mold for Crosshairs or Bugatti Drift? Don't know. All the images were posted by TFW2005.

You forgot another TLK "Reissue" with K.S.I Boss, who was a "premium painted" version of TLK Nitro Zeus.

I wonder if we will see some more "reissues" in the SS line?

That's not an SS High Octane Bumblebee, that's clearly just the AOE figure repackaged. I should know, I actually have it.

Well I guess I'm getting another Bumblebee because I missed out on SS Barricade and I want it.

I thought one of the new 2 packs had 2 versions of Bee in it…
Maybe that was an old one…
I haven’t exactly been following this line closely.

Strangely enough, you might have stumbled into exactly what the 4th one is, a re-release of the SS24/25 Bee 2 pack that are originally a target exclusive. Target actually has that original Listing on their website as open for pre-orders due September 1st, so I'm betting its the 4th one for these 2-packs.

Which is odd, because it means VW Beetle Bee would be re-released in 2 of the 4 2-packs.

You're right , totally forgot KSI Boss. As for the comment up there regarding that not being SS HO Bee, it is. It's an upcomong SS release which is also a rerelease of the same toy. Which is too bad.

Tempted for the dropkick pack, but im also tempted to sell the few SS I have....arrrrgh.

This make me think that one more TLK "reissue" may happen with voyager Scorn (in better paint) if they decided to finally redo the rest of the AoE Dinobots. I think all would be leaders and voyagers. TLK Scorn being big and pretty much perfect would be a nice way to kickstart the AoE Dinobots in the SS line.

If they are going for scale with Grimlock, he should be leader. Voyager would be too small.

All they need to do is pull an SS-06 Starscream and make the same toy but one size class larger. It's such an amazing toy that I absolutely will update my collection even if it's all they do.

Upscaling the TKL voyager could do the trick for an easy start.

I would say that car dropkick is an awesome enough figure to be worth owning even if you are also downscaling your SS collection. He's that damn good.
