Maybe he will be like tracks in this matter.

I like this one. It needs to have an awesome bot mode for me to get it tho.

I also liked it. It would be nice if they Hasbro released a "jet-version" of each Autobot in the movie.
Of course, the robot mode should be cool as well ...

I mean, seriously hasbro WTF is up with these weird ass designs lately?

Read this, agreed...but then happened to notice your avatar and had to :lol:

Dark of the Moon figs have sucked pretty hard overall, but I'm still not sure if they've out-lamed ROTF Demolisher yet...

I believe this figure is incomplete. He has to come with more weapons to filly those ports.

I actually think this looks kind of cool, but it'll have to have a great robot mode for me to get another movie Bumblebee.

Yeah, maybe he has a Wrecker-esque armed mode, like the Topsin toy.

Eh, it's actually kinda cool looking. But hey, if you slapped a rocket engine, let alone two rocket engines, on anything I'd think it would be cool. How are they interpreted in robot mode though? Personally I think it's just another Bumblebee Hasbro can pawn off.

I stand by my earlier statement.

Hmm. Maybe I'll buy Delorean Bee when it goes on eventual clearance. :lol:

*sighs*

I'm all for them making these easier for kids and therefore more playable, but I'm not at all fine with them making them THIS dumb and stripped down.

How do you go from "Wow, pretty neat" for the first movie toys, to "WTF? These are like miniature Masterpieces! This is insane!", to "Wow. Armada much?" I mean, seriously, what a de-evolution this has become. As for a possible Armada comparison comment, to which I would respond, "Hey! Armada had some cool stuff, these just suck!"

'79 Bumblebee and Battle Blades Bumblebee are enough for me. Need all three Megatrons though. This thing looks interesting, but I don't need it.

by **OlivusPrime** » Tue Mar 15, 2011 11:31 am

His robot mode actually looks really cool to me. He looks a lot burlier, maybe that's the new design they're meant to be using in the film. I may actually get him, if only for his resemblance to the DeLorean time machine.
I won't give in to the Bumblebee craze though... I'l just buy this, make like a tree, and get out of here.

by **kookookajew** » Tue Mar 15, 2011 11:34 am

What the hell is that?
The awkward looking hunch back leader class and this piece of **** reallllllly make me worry about what bumblebee will look like in DOTM. As for me, I will be BUMBLEBEE FREE in the upcoming toyline. Battle-blade bumblebee, HA Bumblebee and the Battle Ops bumblebee are IMO the best looking bumblebee's were gonna get. :grin:

Um, yeah, seems like it.

I almost prefer the Nitro Bumblebee over the regular DOTM deluxe version. Looks kinda cool and a nice change instead of so many freaking repaints we get a new mold and new look. Ether way though there are way too many bumblebee figures out there. #-o

Yea, I've hit Bumblebee overload.

I'm done.

They will have to have a spectacularly cool version for me to shell out for yet another BB.

by **Astronopolis** » Tue Mar 15, 2011 12:09 pm

it does have one thing going for it, the shins are finally a new sculpt instead of the same shins theyve been using since 2007! not that it changes my opinion much

by **morphobots** » Tue Mar 15, 2011 12:52 pm

Why, why, why does this have to be the rare one with two hands?

by **reluttr** » Tue Mar 15, 2011 1:02 pm

The seller does realize that this is mudflaps mechtech gun, and the gun on mudflap actually goes with this figure right?

Still toying with the idea of picking this one up just so I can hollow out those "rockets" and put small model rocket engines in there. Yeah it would likely be a waste of money since it would probably destroy the figure upon firing but it would certainly look cool. The kids would definitely get a kick out of it so it might just be worth attempting.
